Closed-Source Code vs Web3 Principles: The Open Source Debate

The Web3 community faces a fundamental question about **closed-source code** and its compatibility with decentralized principles. **Key considerations:** - Open source has been a cornerstone of Web3 development - Transparency enables community verification and trust - Closed-source approaches may compromise decentralization ideals The debate centers on whether **proprietary code** undermines the core values of user sovereignty and open protocols that define true Web3. **Arguments for open source:** - Enables community auditing and security reviews - Promotes innovation through collaborative development - Aligns with decentralization principles **Potential concerns with closed-source:** - Reduces transparency and community oversight - May create centralized control points - Could limit user sovereignty This discussion reflects broader questions about **Web3's evolution** beyond simple "read-write-own" models toward genuine decentralization. The outcome of this debate may shape how the Web3 ecosystem balances innovation, security, and foundational principles moving forward.

GhostDAO Abandons Stablecoins for Native Assets After DAI and FRAX Issues

**GhostDAO announces major treasury pivot** following centralization concerns with DAI and FRAX protocol challenges. **Key changes:** - Ditching stablecoins entirely from treasury - Moving to native crypto assets instead - Building multi-chain treasury structure - Focus on inflation-resistant holdings The shift represents a **fundamental strategy change** as the DAO seeks to create what they call an "anti-fragile" treasury model. **Background context:** FRAX previously maintained stability during market volatility, with their stablecoin holding its peg and processing millions in liquidations without bad debt. However, recent developments have prompted ghostDAO to reconsider stablecoin exposure entirely. Read full details: [ghostDAO treasury backing](https://blog.ghostchain.io/ghostdao-treasury-backing/)
