MetaDAO Co-Founder Nallok Opposes SIMD-0228 Proposal Focusing on Dynamic Base Fees

Nallok, the co-founder of MetaDAO, a governance project within the Solana ecosystem, has expressed his opposition to the SIMD-0228 improvement proposal. In a recent tweet, Nallok argued that the proposal is based on a mistaken value judgment and that the community's focus should instead be on dynamic base fees, which encompass computation and network costs. He suggested that inflation should be managed through direct payments to attract stakeholders.

Nallok acknowledged the community's interest in SIMD-0228 but emphasized that this is not the area where efforts should be concentrated. He believes that while the proposal may achieve its goals, it is unlikely to reach the desired scale. Nallok proposed halving the impact of the proposal, suggesting that it can always be revisited in the future. He also noted that the implementation of the proposal may take some time, but there is high confidence that it will proceed as expected. If necessary, further acceleration can be achieved through future proposals.

Nallok's statement highlights the ongoing debate within the Solana ecosystem about the best ways to manage inflation and network costs. His focus on dynamic base fees reflects a broader concern within the community about the need for more flexible and responsive fee structures. The debate over SIMD-0228 and other proposals underscores the complexity of governance in decentralized ecosystems, where multiple stakeholders with differing priorities must reach consensus on critical issues.

As the Solana ecosystem continues to evolve, the community will need to navigate these challenges carefully. The input from key figures like Nallok will be crucial in shaping the future direction of the network. The debate over SIMD-0228 and dynamic base fees is just one of many issues that will require careful consideration and collaboration among stakeholders. The outcome of this debate will have significant implications for the long-term sustainability and growth of the Solana ecosystem.
