AIP-317: ApeCoin DAO Governance and Operations Budget

[SmartAPE]

Couple of things here:

1. You meant ‘invalid’ not ‘illegal’ since those were in fact legal votes when AIP-239 passed
2. It is improper to remove votes less than 1 $APE because at the time AIP-239 passed, those were valid votes. Your AIP-295 related to this only recently passed last month
3. Abstain votes are wholly immaterial in the mathematical model for determining pass/fail ratios

So, the ratio based on vote counts of 269/80 which equates to 40.83% vs 32.38% still stands.

@bigbull

If you want the Ape Assembly to have a greater role it needs more members to join and vote. Joining is up almost 67% in the last month. Voting numbers were high for the elected results but now sit at around 15/20 voters, unless more come out and vote today.

A greater role is immaterial to the voting metrics. How material to AA is 50 people vs 20 people? I mean, it’s not the number of people that matters either way; it’s that those who are in AA go and vote.
