Scroll DAO undergoes restructuring, foundation will maintain veto power
Scroll DAO will have new governance with foundation oversight Daily operations are under the control of the Executive Board Updated Constitution to be voted on in January 2026 Scroll DAO, a decentralized organization working on developing Ethereum's layer-2 scaling protocol, announced changes to its governance structure. The entity stated that it will not be dissolved, but rather "evolved," with the Scroll Foundation assuming an oversight role and retaining veto power over strategic decisions. Em official forum post , the team highlighted the need for more agile processes to keep pace with the market. "Scroll's rapid growth demands faster alignment, efficiency, and resource allocation than current DAO processes allow," the development team explained. The redesign aims to balance community participation with efficient execution. Under the new model, the DAO's treasury allocations will be annual or biannual, while the foundation will no longer be involved in day-to-day operations and will instead focus on strategic guidance. The Executive Board will be responsible for day-to-day operations, ensuring the DAO's continued operation. The developers emphasized that the changes do not affect the protocol level and that user funds remain secure. Since its launch 11 months ago, Scroll DAO has not directly managed user funds, and protocol updates are coordinated with the Security Council. In the coming days, the project intends to open the recruitment process for a Governance Council, which will be tasked with drafting an updated constitution. This new structure is expected to come into effect during the January 2026 voting cycle, cementing the governance changes. The update comes after Delegate Olimpio announced his intention to temporarily pause the governance mechanism, amid recent leadership resignations. Even with the restructuring, existing programs such as the Delegate Accelerator, the Ecosystem Growth Council, and the Security Allowance Program will remain within their approved budgets and timelines, preserving the progress of ongoing initiatives.

Scroll DAO Restructures for Greater Efficiency in Decision-Making
Ethereum $4,532 ‘s Layer-2 scaling project, Scroll, has announced a significant change in its governance structure. The Scroll DAO clarified that it is not being dissolved but instead restructured to align more swiftly with market conditions. The announcement was made on the community forum on Thursday, September 18. Scroll DAO’s New Governance Model The Scroll DAO aims to maintain community engagement while achieving higher efficiency in decision-making processes. With this new structure, the DAO will report directly to the Scroll Foundation. Although the foundation will step back from day-to-day operations, it will continue to provide strategic oversight and exercise veto rights when necessary. The treasury of the DAO will also be tied to a new plan as part of this reorganization. Budget allocations will occur on an annual or semi-annual basis. The project team underscored that these changes pose no risks at the protocol level and assured that user funds remain secure. Implementation Timeline The reorganization will see the operational processes of the DAO managed by the Execution Council. The foundation, on the other hand, will play only a strategic guidance and oversight role. Additionally, it was announced that applications for the Governance Council will open soon, alongside the preparation of a new DAO constitution. The new governance structure is set to be implemented during the voting period in January 2026. During this time, current initiatives such as the Delegate Accelerator Program, Ecosystem Growth Council, and Security Subsidy Program will proceed as per approved budgets and timelines. Following recent resignations, Scroll DAO delegate Olimpio had mentioned a halt in the governance mechanism. Consequently, the updated structure was introduced post these developments.
Scroll DAO Foundation to step back from daily operations while retaining veto power
Scroll DAO, the decentralized autonomous organization behind the Ethereum Layer 2 scaling project Scroll, said Thursday that it is not disbanding the DAO but "evolving it." In a Thursday forum post , Scroll DAO announced an overhaul of its governance, seeking to balance community participation with the "faster" execution needed to keep pace with the market. "Scroll's rapid growth demands faster alignment, efficiency, and resource allocation than current DAO processes allow," the team said. The project noted that the changes carry no protocol-level risks and that user funds remain fully secure. "Since its launch nearly 11 months ago, the Scroll DAO has not managed user funds and Protocol Upgrades will continue to be coordinated with the DAO and executed by our Security Council," the team added. Specifically, under the revamp, the DAO is set to report to the Scroll Foundation, which will provide oversight and retain veto power where necessary. The DAO treasury allocations will shift to an annual or biannual schedule. The Execution Council is expected to handle operations of the DAO, while the Foundation intends to step back from daily involvement, focusing instead on strategic guidance and oversight. The project said it will start recruiting for the Governance Council in the coming days to help draft an updated DAO constitution, with the new structure targeted for implementation in the January 2026 voting cycle. The Scroll DAO's restructuring update came after project delegate Olimpio reported last week that the DAO planned to pause its governance mechanism following a wave of leadership resignations. Meanwhile, several existing initiatives — including the Delegate Accelerator Program, Ecosystem Growth Council, and Security Subsidy Program — are expected to continue under their approved budgets and timelines.
Seven Days, Seven DAOs: Proposal for Governance and Market Flows
Seven major DAO proposals emerged during a turbulent week, including Scroll’s governance shift and the USDH ticker dispute on Hyperliquid. Strategic moves from Ronin and dYdX also contributed to the significant proposals. These decisions impact their respective ecosystems and could directly affect investors. DAOs Heat This Week Over the past seven days, key proposals and debates across major DAOs have painted a volatile picture of on-chain governance. From a Layer-2 (L2) project suspending its DAO operations to crucial votes deciding the future of stablecoins and buyback trends being considered by multiple protocols, the DAO market is hotter than ever. One of the most shocking announcements came from Scroll, which revealed it would suspend its DAO and change to a more centralized model. This move raises significant questions about the balance between development speed and the philosophy of decentralization. In an era where L2 networks are fiercely competitive, Scroll’s “taking the reins” could allow faster upgrades — but also stir community concerns over transparency and user participation. The second central focal point is the validator vote on Hyperliquid (HYPE) to determine ownership of the USDH ticker — one of the platform’s most liquid stablecoins. If control ends up in the hands of a specific group, it could directly impact stablecoin development strategies and trading fees. This battle may reshape capital flows on Hyperliquid and influence the broader DeFi ecosystem. USDH ticker war. Source:
Bitcoin Nears All-Time High with Just 7.4% to Go
Bitcoin is just 7.4% below its all-time high. Market sentiment remains bullish for BTC. Investors are eyeing a potential breakout soon. Bitcoin ( BTC ) is now just 7.4% away from reaching its all-time high, sparking renewed excitement across the crypto community. The leading cryptocurrency has shown strong performance in recent weeks, and many analysts believe a new record could be just around the corner. This recent surge reflects a wave of positive sentiment fueled by institutional interest, macroeconomic shifts, and ongoing adoption of Bitcoin as a store of value. As the price inches closer to its historic peak, traders and investors are closely monitoring market behavior. What’s Driving Bitcoin’s Momentum? Several key factors are contributing to Bitcoin’s upward movement. Firstly, the current economic climate, marked by inflation concerns and unstable fiat markets, is pushing investors toward decentralized assets like BTC. Additionally, institutional players such as asset managers and publicly traded companies continue to increase their Bitcoin holdings. This adds both credibility and liquidity to the market. On top of that, excitement around spot Bitcoin ETFs and halving-related supply constraints are also boosting investor confidence. Historically, when Bitcoin approaches its all-time highs, it tends to trigger FOMO (fear of missing out), leading to further price acceleration. If this pattern holds, a breakout could occur sooner rather than later. 🚨 UPDATE: $BTC is only 7.4% away from its ATH. pic.twitter.com/k7B9wN7TvH — Cointelegraph (@Cointelegraph) September 13, 2025 Is a New ATH Coming Soon? While no prediction is guaranteed in crypto, the current momentum suggests that Bitcoin may soon break its previous all-time high. Market indicators such as trading volume, on-chain activity, and sentiment analysis all point to bullish conditions. However, investors should remain cautious. The crypto market is volatile, and sharp corrections are always possible. Still, being just 7.4% shy of the Bitcoin all-time high is a clear signal that the bulls are in control—for now.

Will PayFi be the next narrative for RWA?
Can unsecured credit lending protocols work in the DeFi world? Written by: Sleeping in the Rain The market's concerns about this type of protocol mainly focus on the borrower's ability to repay. In plain terms, the key is whether the project can recover the money it lends out—only then will users be more willing to deposit funds for wealth management, allowing the project to operate and earn fees. Only by solving the above problem can such projects truly achieve sustainable development. The solutions generally fall into the following two directions: Maximize the likelihood that borrowers can repay normally Provide corresponding guarantees/insurance for deposit users Therefore, when we look at such projects, we need to focus on these two points. I have mentioned $MPL and $CPOOL in my outlooks for August and September, and next week I will write another article discussing these two projects. Today, let's first talk about @humafinance, a project in the same sector that just announced a $38 million funding round, and take a look at its solutions and new product expansions. 1/ Recently Announced Funding Information ⬇️ Huma Finance recently completed a $38 million funding round, including $10 million in equity investment and $28 million in yield-bearing RWA. The round was led by Distributed Global, with participation from Hashkey Capital, Folius Ventures, Stellar Development Foundation, and TIBAS Ventures, the venture capital arm of Turkey's largest private bank İşbank, among others. Huma Finance plans to use this funding to deploy its PayFi product on the Solana and Stellar chains. Next, I will share my understanding of this project as concisely as possible. 2/ Huma Finance v1 Huma Finance v1 is an unsecured lending platform for businesses and individuals, focusing on the borrower's future potential income—that is, when a borrower takes a loan, the main consideration is the borrower's future income cash flow. As stated in their official Mirror post: "Income and earnings are the most important factors in underwriting, as they are highly predictive of repayment ability." To better advance its vertical business, Huma merged with Arf this year. Arf is a liquidity and settlement platform focused on cross-border payments, supported by Circle (and also collaborates with Solana and Stellar). After the merger, Huma is responsible for the deposit side, while Arf handles lending to the Web2 world and collecting interest, forming a sustainable cycle. (As seen on their official website, the default rate so far is 0%) 3/ PayFi Huma v2 is an expansion of v1. On top of lending, Huma aims to expand its business into the PayFi sector. What is PayFi? "PayFi" was proposed by Lily Liu, Chair of the Solana Foundation (and also an investor in Huma Finance). PayFi refers to new financial markets built around the Time Value of Money. The time value of money means that a certain amount of money held now is more valuable than the same amount received in the future, because this money can generate income, such as earning interest from lending, earning yields from US Treasuries, or completing transactions and transfers at lower costs in less time, etc. Therefore, PayFi is also a sub-sector of RWA. (This is likely why Huma Finance is considering deployment on Solana.) However, although it is RWA, PayFi is different from the RWA assets built on US Treasury yields that the market is familiar with. PayFi's yields often come from transaction fees, cross-border payments, and loan interest, etc. For example, Arf uses Web3 liquidity to provide cross-border transfer services for licensed financial institutions at T1 and T2 levels in developed countries (which can be understood as bridge funding). After interest rate cuts in the US and with greater adoption, PayFi may become the mainstream sub-sector leading the development of RWA. Huma is one of the first projects to enter the PayFi space and has also attracted the favor of VCs and core circles supporting PayFi (just look at the list of investors). At the same time, to become the core infrastructure provider in the PayFi sector, Huma has launched the PayFi Stack to meet the needs of the PayFi sector in trading, currency, custody, financing, compliance, and application building. 4/ Huma Finance v2 On the product side, v2 has achieved a more complex product structure, such as the addition of Senior Tranche, Junior Tranche, and First Loss Cover features mentioned below. Simply put, this upgrade subdivides functions to meet the needs of different users. Huma v2's pools are divided into Senior and Junior Pools. The Senior Pool has a fixed yield, while the Junior Pool has a floating yield, which depends on the project's real-time income. The cost of the higher floating yield in the Junior Pool is that it must bear corresponding losses in the event of bad debt. From a product perspective, I personally believe that in the future, the project may need to subsidize Junior Pool depositors through tokens or other incentives—after all, the Junior Pool is the product's safety module. 5/ How does Arf handle the liquidity provided by investors? After we deposit funds into the Huma Finance Arf Pool, these assets are placed by Arf into a bankruptcy-remote SPV (Special Purpose Vehicle, a legal entity created for specific or temporary purposes, mainly for risk isolation). Arf Financial GmbH, as the service provider, serves the SPV. Lending, cross-border payments, transaction settlement, and risk management are all conducted here. After a transaction is completed, the SPV returns the money and profits from the pool back on-chain. Arf Financial GmbH does not have control over the pool funds. 6/ Filling in the Gaps Here I want to add two points: Arf does a good job in risk control, but this also leads to some issues, such as requiring KYC before depositing, which is not very friendly to many DeFi users. Also, I personally think Huma Finance's UI/UX still has room for improvement. 2. Cooperation with Scroll Currently, we can deposit USDC into Huma on Scroll and achieve triple benefits—over 10% wealth management income + Huma points + Scroll points. 7/ Finally Why have I been looking at these types of wealth management products lately? It's because after liquidating my positions some time ago, most of my assets are in U, so I'm looking for a good place to manage these U. From my personal perspective, before the market shows a potential upward trend, I won't go all in or use leverage, at most I'll do some short-term swing trading.
SEI Bullish Breakout Signals Strong Upside Momentum
SEI breaks key resistance zone and S/R trendline Bullish flag pattern forms above the breakout Price action suggests strong continuation potential SEI, the native token of the Sei Network, just made a powerful technical move that has caught the attention of traders and analysts. The token successfully broke above a significant confluence zone — one that included both a key support/resistance (S/R) trendline and a historically relevant price level. This kind of breakout is typically a bullish signal, especially when followed by sustained price action above the level. In SEI’s case, not only did it break out, but it also held that ground — a strong sign of bullish intent. Bullish Flag Pattern Confirms Momentum What makes this breakout even more compelling is the appearance of a bullish flag pattern right after the move. A bullish flag is a classic continuation pattern that signals the market is consolidating before making another push higher. When this pattern forms above a breakout level, it often leads to a “full send” — or a strong upward continuation. In SEI’s case, the flag is forming cleanly and tightly above the breakout zone, which suggests buyers are in control. This setup often precedes aggressive bullish momentum, especially in trending markets. #SEI could not looks better than now🔥 Crossed above the confluence of Key Zone + S/R Trendline and produced a bullish flag above the one😳 FULL SEND🚀 $SEI pic.twitter.com/dsc3MzdLMK — Alex Clay (@cryptclay) September 12, 2025 What’s Next for SEI? Given the current technical structure, SEI could be gearing up for a major leg up. The alignment of a successful breakout, support hold, and flag formation makes it a high-conviction setup for many market participants. However, as with any market move, traders should be cautious of false breakouts and always manage risk accordingly. Still, if this pattern plays out, SEI might be ready to explore higher levels in the short term.

Altcoin Golden Setup Signals Massive Breakout Ahead
Altcoins are forming a powerful technical pattern Four years of higher lows signal strong accumulation A breakout could create sudden millionaire gains The Altcoin Golden Setup is catching the attention of seasoned traders and crypto analysts alike. Over the past four years, altcoins have formed a classic technical structure—a series of higher lows pressing against a flat resistance level. This pattern is often a precursor to explosive price movements. This setup is comparable to a spring that’s been coiling tighter over time. With each test of the resistance and each higher low, buying pressure builds. Smart money—whales and institutions—are already positioning themselves, quietly accumulating while most retail investors remain unaware or uninterested. Whales Prepare While Retail Sleeps Data from on-chain analysis and trading sentiment tools show that large holders are buying into altcoin positions at a steady pace. This is a signal that the market is being stealthily loaded before a potential parabolic move. Retail investors, on the other hand, are either distracted by Bitcoin or still licking their wounds from the last cycle. History shows that when these setups resolve, the market moves fast—so fast that portfolios barely have time to react. ALTCOIN GOLDEN SETUP IS LOADING ⚡️ 4 years of higher lows. Resistance flatlined. This is the spring coiling tighter every week. Whales see it. Retail ignores it. When it rips… portfolios don’t move. They create millionaires overnight pic.twitter.com/kSEYpLOPS9 — Merlijn The Trader (@MerlijnTrader) September 12, 2025 When It Rips, It Rips Fast Once resistance breaks, the resulting rally can be life-changing. We’ve seen this play out in previous market cycles: projects that traded sideways for years suddenly explode, creating millionaires overnight. Whether you’re a long-term believer or a tactical trader, ignoring this setup could mean missing one of the biggest opportunities of the cycle.

Crypto Weekly: OpenSea Incentives, Scroll DAO Halt & More
OpenSea launches an incentive campaign. Scroll DAO governance is temporarily paused. WLFI community proposes token buyback and burn. This week in the crypto space, several project developments caught the community’s attention. OpenSea, one of the leading NFT marketplaces, launched an incentive program. This move is aimed at rewarding early adopters and encouraging engagement before their token officially launches. The campaign includes limited-time rewards and bonuses for users actively trading or holding assets on OpenSea. By offering incentives ahead of its token distribution, OpenSea hopes to build momentum and onboard new users. It’s a strategic play to capture more market share as competitors like Blur continue to gain traction. Scroll DAO Paused as Governance Tools Improve In another significant update, Scroll DAO has temporarily suspended its governance activities. The decision comes as the team looks to improve its on-chain voting tools and governance transparency. While DAO activity is paused, development continues behind the scenes. The Scroll community remains optimistic, seeing this as a chance to reset and enhance the DAO’s infrastructure for long-term scalability and efficiency. WLFI Community Plans Repurchase & Burn Meanwhile, the WLFI (Wavelength Finance) community is taking a bold step by proposing a repurchase and burn of WLFI tokens. This deflationary move is designed to support token value and reduce circulating supply, which may appeal to long-term holders. Token burns are often seen as a commitment to ecosystem growth, and WLFI’s move reflects a community-driven effort to add value and maintain investor confidence. X Layer Hits New ATH in Activity Lastly, X Layer has recorded an all-time high in active addresses, showing strong user engagement on its network. As Layer 2 solutions continue to evolve, increased address activity can signal healthy network usage and growing adoption. This milestone highlights X Layer’s progress in building a scalable and user-friendly blockchain ecosystem, further attracting developers and DeFi enthusiasts.

Scroll DAO Temporarily Halts Governance Amid Leadership Resignations
The Scroll DAO, responsible for the Ethereum $4,420 Layer 2 scaling project, Scroll, has taken a significant step by temporarily suspending its governance operations. The decision follows a series of leadership resignations and was officially announced to the public. Olimpio, a DAO delegate, shared through his account, indicating that the governance process is undergoing a redesign. Leadership Resignations Prompt Key Decisions Eugene, one of the leaders of Scroll DAO, officially resigned from his position last week. In response to this resignation, Scroll co-founder Haichen Shen announced efforts to restructure the governance model. This move aims to address the changes needed within the organization to maintain stability and ensure continued growth. Scroll DAO In an official statement on the matter, it was clarified that the suspended system is not being ended permanently. Instead, it is temporarily on hold in preparation for a new governance structure. Raza Zaidi, responsible for growth at Scroll, emphasized that the process is a pause, not a cessation. However, no clear roadmap has been shared on how the restructuring will proceed. The community is currently awaiting official updates on the management system. The Future of Governance in the Altcoin As a result of the suspension of the governance mechanism, several proposals, including those related to the Scroll DAO treasury, are on hold. The decision-making process regarding whether these proposals will be implemented remains uncertain for now. Stakeholders in the project are keenly watching for any developments that could provide clarity on the future governance path. The DAO was established following the launch of SCR, the mainnet asset of the altcoin project. The organization collaborated with the Scroll Foundation and the Security Council, with governance facilitated by votes from community delegates. While the suspension suggests that the structure will undergo reshaping, the progression of the process is currently uncertain.
Scroll DAO pauses governance after leaders leave and restructuring begins
Scroll DAO Suspends Governance Following Resignation of Key Leadership Delegates point to reformulation with possible temporary centralization Treasury proposals remain pending without a definition of execution Scroll DAO, the decentralized autonomous organization responsible for Ethereum's layer-2 scaling project, announced the temporary suspension of its governance mechanism. The decision comes amid internal changes following the departure of key leadership figures, according to Delegate Olimpio. In a post on X, Olimpio stated that Eugene, leader of Scroll DAO, formally resigned earlier this week. He added that Haichen Shen, Scroll's co-founder, highlighted that the team is currently "redesigning governance," which prompted the pause in the decentralized decision-making process. Today: Scroll DAO 📜 governance is to be “paused” DAO leadership resigned, but gov proposals are still live, ongoing. Straight from today's delegate call: 1. Haichen @shenhaichen (cofounder of SCR) started: they are “redesigning governance” 2. Race @razacodes (SCR team… pic.twitter.com/UHRbiPfi2o — olimpio (@OlimpioCrypto) September 10, 2025 The restructuring raised questions among delegates and participants. According to Olimpio, "Summary: They are revamping governance, but the path forward is unclear; it seems to me they will adopt a centralized approach. There is still no clear communication, transparency, or plan. Just an announcement of a 'pause.'" Despite the suspension, team members emphasized that it is not a definitive end to governance. Raza Zaidi, Scroll's head of growth, stated that the measure should be viewed as a "pause" and not a "stop" or "dismantling" of the DAO's structures. Among the proposals that remain open is one related to treasury management, but there is still no confirmation on when or how it will be implemented. This point is considered crucial, as Scroll DAO's treasury is one of the pillars supporting the ecosystem's development. Scroll DAO was created in parallel with the launch of SCR, its native token, and is jointly managed by the Scroll Foundation and a Security Council. The governance model has been conducted through delegate voting, which will now undergo review to better align with the project's objectives and the needs of its community. The pause marks a reset moment for Scroll DAO, which seeks to balance decentralization, efficiency, and clear governance amid the expanding layer 2 project sector on Ethereum.
Scroll DAO Pauses All Governance Activities Following Multiple Leadership Resignations and Internal Disagreements
Scroll DAO pauses operations after leaders resign, raising questions about future governance and decision-making. Key proposals are on hold as the community waits for clear direction from the remaining Scroll DAO leadership. Despite the governance pause, Scroll’s ecosystem continues to grow with stable token performance and new partnerships. Scroll DAO has paused its operations after key leaders resigned, raising concerns across the community. The decision was confirmed following a delegate call on September 10. DAO delegate Olimpio announced the pause on social media. The move came after the resignation of Eugene Chen, a key leader within the organization. According to Scroll DAO delegate Olimpio, Scroll DAO governance will be paused, several members of the DAO leadership have resigned, and the organization is in disarray. Although Scroll co-founder Haichen stated that they are "redesigning governance," the future path remains… — Wu Blockchain (@WuBlockchain) September 11, 2025 Chen’s exit followed internal disagreements over the direction of governance. His departure sparked broader uncertainty around the future of the DAO. The timing has left several key governance proposals in limbo. These proposals included treasury management plans and council formation. Governance Uncertainty Increases Community Concerns Scroll DAO was originally designed to support decentralized decision-making for the Scroll Layer 2 project. Token holders were given the ability to vote on decisions. However, the recent leadership changes have disrupted that structure. Community members have raised questions over transparency and communication. Some delegates reported confusion over which proposals remain active. Others pointed to a lack of clarity around decision-making authority during the pause. Internal discussions revealed that leadership preferred to describe the pause as temporary. No strict adherence to a schedule or follow-up. The change of the governance model is under discussion. In May, the market performance of Scroll (SCR) indicated that it might soon experience a turning point in its pricing trends after multiple weeks of decreasing sales. However, A breakout would have signalled a reversal and fuelled up to 150% price growth. Proposals and Council Plans Remain Unresolved Several governance proposals were still under review when the pause was announced. These included a council formation process and contributor recognition plans. A treasury management request and a timelock test were also under discussion. Delegates debated whether these proposals should move forward. However, without active leadership, decision-making is stalled. Community representatives asked for more time to reassess the situation. The council initiative, launched on August 15, had offered paid seats to manage grants and regional nodes. That program now faces an uncertain future. Many within the DAO remain unsure about whether the structure will return in its current form. Scroll Ecosystem Continues Development Amid Pause Despite governance issues, Scroll’s broader development efforts remain active. On September 8, Scroll partnered with Makinafi to expand decentralized finance options. The partnership will deliver stablecoin vault strategies for enterprise and retail users. More than $185 million remains locked in corporate vaults on Scroll. This signals continued demand for its zkEVM infrastructure. The SCR token has been relatively stable with a slight increment in the past 24 hours. In May, Ethereum Layer 2 technology, projects like zkSync , and Scroll were taking key roles in enhancing blockchain scalability and efficiency, as well as blockchain decentralized governance. According to CoinMarketCap, Scroll, a zkEVM-based Layer 2 solution, focuses on scalability and security. Still, the pause highlights ongoing challenges in decentralized governance models. Leadership changes and unclear communication have left the community waiting for direction. Until more details are shared, the future of Scroll DAO remains uncertain.
Scroll: Accepted proposals will continue to be advanced, and no new proposals will be processed before the new governance model is implemented.
Foresight News reported that Scroll has released an update regarding the "Scroll DAO Suspension." All accepted proposals will proceed as planned, but no new proposals will be processed until the updated governance model is introduced. Governance remains effective while the new model is being designed in the workflow. According to previous Foresight News reports, Scroll DAO governance announced a "suspension" today. The DAO leadership has resigned, and the team is "redesigning governance."
Scroll: No New Proposals Will Be Processed Before the Launch of the New Governance Model
Jinse Finance reported that Scroll has released an update stating: "Although all previously approved proposals will proceed as planned, we will not process new proposals until the updated governance model is launched. As outlined in our DAO charter, we welcome experimentation and governance development, and view this as an opportunity for responsible evolution. This prudent measure allows us to design a more efficient, effective, and consistent process. That is to say: 1. All previously approved proposals will proceed as planned. 2. The existing governance mechanism will remain unchanged while the working group designs the new model. 3. We are focused on achieving consistency, efficiency, and sustainability. 4. We will not process new proposals until the updated model is introduced."
Scroll DAO governance suspended, team is redesigning governance
BlockBeats News, on September 11, according to olimpio (@OlimpioCrypto), Scroll DAO officially announced the suspension of its governance mechanism, and DAO leader Eugene has formally resigned this week. Haichen, co-founder of Scroll, stated that the team is "redesigning governance," but has not yet provided a clear follow-up plan or timeline. Team member Raza emphasized during the meeting that they prefer to use the term "suspend" rather than "stop" or "dismantle" to describe this governance change. Currently, several governance proposals (including treasury management proposals) are still ongoing, and their execution status remains uncertain. Olimpico pointed out that the Scroll team repeatedly used the word "experiment" to describe the current governance during the meeting and stated that more time is needed to sort out the situation.
Scroll DAO to pause governance for redesign after leadership exits, says delegate
Scroll DAO, the decentralized autonomous organization behind the Ethereum Layer 2 scaling project Scroll, will pause its governance mechanism following a wave of leadership resignations, project delegate Olimpio reported. Olimpio wrote in a post on X Wednesday that Scroll DAO leader Eugene formally stepped down earlier this week, with Scroll co-founder Haichen Shen explaining the team is currently "redesigning governance." The post also said that Raza Zaidi, head of growth for Scroll, stated that the move should be viewed as a "pause" rather than a permanent "stop" or "dismantling" of governance. Several proposals remain pending, including a treasury management proposal, but their execution status has yet to be determined, according to Olimpio. "TLDR: they are redesigning governance, but the pathway forward is unclear; it seems to me like they'll take a centralized approach. No clear comms yet, or transparency, or plan. Just a 'pause' announcement," wrote Olimpio. The Block has reached out to Scroll for further comment. Scroll DAO came into existence with the launch of SCR, its native token. The DAO operates alongside the Scroll Foundation and a Security Council, with governance facilitated through delegate voting, according to the DAO's documents .
After three months of farming, only received $10: Should we cancel airdrops?
I still remember the scene when I received my first crypto airdrop, as if it happened just yesterday. It was 2020, and I was busy completing bounty tasks on Bitcointalk. One morning, I was woken up by a WhatsApp notification—it was a message from a friend. "Have you used Uniswap?" he asked. I replied, "Yes," and then he said, "Then you should have 400 UNI tokens to claim, which are now worth over $1,000." I immediately went to Uniswap's Twitter page to find the claim link, claimed the tokens, and sold them right away. It was that simple—"free money" falling from the sky. No need to fill out forms, no grinding levels on Discord, and none of those "must contribute to qualify" restrictions. Looking back, that moment defined what airdrops were supposed to be: a surprise "subsidy" for users who love and are actively using the product, not the worthless junk activities we see today. The Golden Age of Airdrops Later, I also received the 1Inch airdrop. At the time, any wallet eligible for the UNI airdrop could also claim 1Inch. But what truly changed my perception of "airdrop mechanics" was the dYdX airdrop. To participate, I had to bridge ETH to the dYdX protocol. Back then, most Layer2 solutions were still at the whitepaper stage, and cross-chain fees were sky-high. I did a few trades to generate some volume—not much—and then bridged my assets back out. Just a day's worth of operations, and I ended up with a five-figure (USD) airdrop. Thinking back, it still feels unbelievable. The total value of the airdrops I received peaked at over $20,000. To be honest, I sold half of it along the way—after all, it was "free money," and cashing out is always the norm. The dYdX airdrop gave me my first decent principal, which I immediately invested in the DeFi sector. During the "DeFi Summer," I did liquidity mining on Juldswap, earning about $250 a day. Honestly, I really miss those days. The Decline of Airdrops Of course, the good times couldn't last forever. After dYdX, I participated in airdrop campaigns for Scroll, Arbitrum, Optimism, and zkSync, with zkSync marking the beginning of my "bad airdrop experiences." However, I will never forget the Scroll airdrop. Expectations were sky-high, and even though co-founder Sandy posted that famous "lower your expectations" tweet, it did nothing to dampen the community's enthusiasm. People kept raising their expectations until disappointment finally hit. The Scroll airdrop allocation was absurdly low—almost a joke. The crypto community's mood instantly plummeted from excitement to despair. Honestly, that airdrop left a shadow over me, and I swore I'd never participate in Layer2 airdrop "mining" again. If it were just Scroll, maybe I could accept it. But what really bothered me was realizing that such "low-quality airdrops" would become the norm in the future. The Current Chaos of Airdrops Fast forward to today, and the airdrop scene is simply a mess. The once "surprise airdrops" have long turned into an "industrialized Sybil attack-style airdrop farming" business. You have to spend months, even years, interacting with various protocols: bridging, adding liquidity, burning gas fees, and building so-called "user loyalty." In the end, whether you get an airdrop is pure luck, and even if you do, the allocation is pitifully small. What's even more outrageous is the emergence of "airdrop claim windows open for only 48 hours"—I remember Sunrise was the first to do this. Even if you finally make it to claim day, you'll find the allocation doesn't match the time and cost you invested, and it often comes with a ridiculously harsh vesting schedule. For example, the 0G Labs airdrop unlocks quarterly over 48 months—48 months, that's a full four years! There are so many of these issues now that whenever I see those "airdrop alpha" tweets, my first reaction is: "Ha, another 'mosquito leg' airdrop." The Game Between Projects and Users The truth is: in recent years, users have become "utilitarian"—there's no need to sugarcoat it. Now, people use a product simply for the rewards; no one is going to spend hours clicking around or contributing to the community just for the so-called ecosystem culture. And what about the project teams? They do want loyal users, but they want "impressive data" for VCs even more—like high user numbers and large community sizes. These stats are enough to boost their valuations when preparing fundraising PPTs. As a result, the relationship between users and project teams has become a game of "farming data" versus "preventing data farming." The result: neither side is happy. Users feel played, and project teams face the challenge of user retention. What Should Airdrops Be Like? If I were to redesign airdrops, I might go back to the Uniswap model: no grand promises, no leaderboards, just a surprise subsidy for loyal users one day. This alone would reduce "industrialized airdrop farming" and lower users' unrealistic expectations. Alternatively, one could learn from Sui's "presale-style airdrop" model—set a reasonable fully diluted valuation (FDV) and give early contributors and users the chance to buy tokens at a discount. The closest to this model now are Cysic and Boundless. They use a "level system" to reward users with presale discounts based on their contributions to the ecosystem. Or, just cancel airdrops altogether and focus on building truly usable products: create something with real product-market fit and a solid revenue model, instead of copy-pasting the same thing 200 times. Honestly, this approach is more in line with the long-term interests of the crypto community. Conclusion The current state of airdrops is downright terrible. It fails both the users who spend time "grinding" for airdrops and the projects trying to build real communities. The end result: everyone feels used. Maybe canceling airdrops and focusing on building products that let everyone make money is the better choice?
After 3 months of farming, only received $10: Should we cancel airdrops?
The way airdrops are supposed to be is to give loyal users a pleasant surprise subsidy. Written by: OxTochi Translated by: Chopper, Foresight News I still remember the first time I received a crypto airdrop, as if it happened just yesterday. It was 2020, and I was busy completing bounty tasks on Bitcointalk. One morning, I was woken up by a WhatsApp notification—it was a message from a friend. "Have you used Uniswap?" he asked. I replied, "Yes," and then he said, "Then you should be able to claim 400 UNI tokens, which are now worth over $1,000." I immediately went to Uniswap's Twitter page to find the claim link, and after claiming, I sold them right away. It was that simple—"free money" falling from the sky. No forms to fill out, no grinding levels on Discord, and none of those "must contribute to qualify" restrictions. Looking back, that moment defined what an airdrop should be: a surprise "subsidy" for users who love and are actively using the product, not the worthless junk activities we see today. The Golden Age of Airdrops Later, I received the 1Inch airdrop. At the time, any wallet eligible for UNI could also claim 1Inch. But what truly changed my perception of "airdrop mechanics" was the dYdX airdrop. To participate, I had to bridge ETH to the dYdX protocol. Back then, most Layer2s were still just whitepapers, and cross-chain fees were sky-high. I did a few trades to generate some volume—not much—and then bridged my assets back out. Just one day of activity, and I ended up with a five-figure (USD) airdrop. Thinking back, it still feels unbelievable. The total value of all the airdrops I received peaked at over $20,000.

Scroll (SCR) To Rally Higher? Key Emerging Fractal Signaling Potential Upside Move
Date: Thu, Aug 21, 2025 | 08:56 AM GMT The cryptocurrency market is bouncing back from its recent dip as Ethereum (ETH) reclaims $4,300, registering a 3% daily gain. This upside momentum is spilling over into altcoins , with Scroll (SCR) emerging as one of the notable movers. SCR surged by an impressive 14% today, and its chart is now flashing a bullish technical setup that strongly resembles the breakout structure seen in Bio Protocol (BIO) in this week. Source: Coinmarketcap SCR Mirrors BIO’s Breakout Structure BIO provides a valuable fractal reference. After forming a falling wedge pattern breakout—a well-known bullish reversal signal—BIO consolidated beneath a red-marked resistance zone before reclaiming multiple resistance levels. The breakout fueled a powerful 124% rally in just weeks. BIO and SCR Fractal Chart/Coinsprobe (Source: Tradingview) Now, SCR is beginning to trace a similar path. The token has broken out of its falling wedge pattern and has established a support foundation around the red zone at $0.347. Currently, SCR is trading above that level at $0.41, signaling strength in its price structure. What’s Next for SCR? If the fractal continues to play out, holding this $0.357 support zone could serve as the springboard for the next rally leg. The next major resistance lies near $0.692, which would represent an 85% upside from current levels. However, traders should remain cautious. A dip back below the red zone support could invalidate the bullish setup and push SCR into deeper consolidation. Disclaimer: This article is for informational purposes only and not financial advice.
