Got it. Thanks for tracking all this down. It’s never been known exactly what the scale (or lack there of) this ordeal was.
I don’t believe this is at risk. This would only become part of POKT identity if we decide to make it part of POKT identity. I would have a hard time believing that there are people that stopped buying POKT because employees of a small staking company stole POKT from their customers.
I don’t see how this benefits the POKT ecosystem at all. POKT’s identity has nothing to do with the pathetic likes of N4A (pardon my French)… and I believe it would be a mistake to try to make it a central matter.
I share the same concerns as @Adz.
I believe the strong message that is actually needed, is “don’t trust anyone with your keys”. The DAO can’t be a free insurance plan for the entire ecosystem, especially if people are willingly trusting others with their POKT. There are too many risk factors if the DAO tries to act as a insurance for customers hurt by centralized companies in the POKT ecosystem.
I personally was willing to consider some kind of supporting action, but I don’t believe this is it. I believe it would be wise for the DAO to NOT be a central character in the N4A narrative. If perhaps N4A customers were pooling resources to address this on their own, I could have seen the DAO matching gifts, or something of that nature to show support as an outside party. I don’t see the benefit of the DAO being the central party in leading legal challenges.
IN SUMMARY:
I don’t support the DAO being the driving force in this matter. Thanks for all the work you have been doing in this @zaatar, but I just don’t see how this benefits POKT, and would not want N4A to be at all part of POKT’s narrative… so I feel it is worth my stating my thoughts.
I honestly believe all this work you have done could still benefit the victims, but I think they need to lead the charge, not the DAO. I think you have gathered enough information for them to build their case, so major props to you and those that contributed information. I do hope for justice in this matter
