Terra Classic KYC Proposal Wins Community Nod

LUNC News: Terra Luna Classic proposal making KYC compulsory for all L1 developers is approved by the community after contradictory voting by members and validators. Community members in favor of the proposal calls it a defining moment, with a massive voting turnout of 90.5%.

As the Terra Luna Classic community pushes to increase development on the chain with third-party developers, it became crucial to introduce some security measures to prevent detrimental damage to the chain.

Terra Luna Classic KYC Mandate Passes Amidst High Turnout

Terra Luna Classic proposal 12033 “Compulsory KYC for all L1 developers” by SolidVote LUNC Validator officially passed by the community, as per the latest voting details on the Station wallet. JesusIsLord, the biggest validator among the support group, said “It was the closest vote in LUNC history.”

SolidVote, a key validator, raises concerns about the vulnerability of Terra Classic’s chain due to its open nature that allows any developer to create decentralized applications (dApps). The most significant threat, according to SolidVote, is the potential for an unidentified developer to engage in short selling of Terra Luna Classic, which could jeopardize the stability of the entire ecosystem.

The proposal saw a massive voting turnout of 90.5% as it was crucial for boosting the chain’s security. The proposal received 34.94% ‘Yes’ votes in support, along with 16.86% ‘No’, 17.89% ‘No with veto’ and 30.31% ‘Abstain’ votes. Top validator Allnodes voted Abstain, but last-minute votes and support from over 40 validators passed the proposal.

Why the Proposal Is Crucial for Terra Luna Classic?

As CoinGape reported, the Terra Luna Classic proposal urges anyone seeking a governance vote for a spend proposal to work on the chain to undergo a compulsory KYC process with a third-party company. If a developer has not previously completed the KYC, the cost will be added to their spend proposal by the proposer. The details will be undisclosed, and will only be released in case there are legal disputes.

“Anybody can work on the Luna Classic blockchain anonymously. This poses a serious risk to the chain. For example, a rogue developer could open a short position and then damage the chain to gain profit,” said SolidVote Validator.

When a spending proposal by a developer is submitted, each developer on the team must have completed the KYC process before working on the chain. The proposal also required any new member added to the team after a proposal is passed to complete the KYC. The set of safety and security measures are taken after new developer groups propose to work on the chain.
