Cronos Restores 70B CRO, Community Faces Backlash

Cronos network users voted in a close outcome to bring back 70 billion burned CRO tokens and raise its total supply from 100 billion. The Crypto.com backed proposal received 62.18%(validated by Mintscan) votes support during the community voting.

The community introduced the plan this month to build up a Strategic Reserve Fund and undo the burning from last year. Supporters believe the token restoration supports Cronos” extended plan and builds up the environment while making AI applications possible. People in the community strongly oppose the selection because it allows Crypto.com too much control over decision-making.

Cronos Governance Faces Growing Criticism

In an interview Sonic”s co-founder Andre Cronje explained the project Cronos is shifting from its $2.5 billion market value to $8.5 billion and only requires one voter to make this happen. His statement reveals concerns about how voting power concentration affects the crypto economy when supply is tightened.

Argued reports show that the initial community voting strongly denied the plan with voting results in favor of rejection. In the last voting hours on March 16 major validators Starship, Falcon Heavy, Electron, Antares, and Minotaur IV sent 3.35 billion CRO tokens that changed the outcome to support Crypto.com”s position.

People claim Cronos governance problems become obvious when validators vote to change their stance minutes before the clock stops. Members of our community believe that canceling a token burn operation could create harmful consequences for the future.

Concerns Rise Over Blockchain Economic Stability

Wyll Bilderberg only breathed in disbelief when he saw the decision. My view is that this action ends real decentralization while I hope for the community to gain advantages from it. He predicted that these actions will boost other projects” self-assurance to make tokenomics-related decisions which harm blockchain economic systems.

Investor attitudes line up with their worries about this matter. The project team won CRO token approval from community stakeholders but this caused the cryptocurrency price to drop by 8% until it reached $0.07. Investors show increased uncertainty around Cronos” economic makeover through their sell activity because they struggle to predict future stability in its financial system.

The leadership at Cronos must handle discussions between stakeholders to promote better governance. The industry now enters a crucial period where both positive and damaging long-term results can arise from this choice.
