The governance proposal posted by @ worldlibertyfi this time, at first glance, seems to have been locked up for a longer period of time and will still burn. But if we look at the USD1+AgentPay+entire payment they are making together. This action is not just about "locking the warehouse".
Simply put, this proposal does two things: one is to unify the core chips of the team, consultants, and institutions into a longer cycle, and release them through a 2-year clip+3-year linear release. The second option is to voluntarily opt in while also directly burning 10%. That is to say, it's not just about locking, but also about proactively reducing supply. And this part is not small in scale, it can burn up to 4.5 billion WLFI at most.
On the other hand, this proposal is actually more friendly to early supporters: a 2-year clip+2-year linear release, no burn required, and full retention quota. If you don't opt in and continue to lock your position indefinitely, it actually gives everyone a choice - if you want liquidity, you have to accept stricter constraints. If you don't accept it, keep locking it.
Many projects are also locked in, but the problem is that the market has seen too many promises. Because rules can be changed at any time, releases can be made in advance, and structural detours can be made. But the design of this proposal is to link the three things of "lock up+destruction+governance participation" together.
USD1 is moving towards the 'settlement layer'. In this structure, the biggest fear is unstable supply. Because once the market feels that the core chips can be released at any time or there is room for the team to exit, regardless of how much USD1 is used, the trust of the settlement layer will be discounted.
So this proposal is essentially aimed at stabilizing the "time dimension" of the entire system.
The team has been locked up for more than two years and still actively burnt. The core chips are clearly involved in long-term governance, and early supporters retain their rights but also enter a lock up period. This structure effectively binds all key participants to the same long-term game.
