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.
