By who? I'm not aware of any major developers suggesting this. As far as I can tell this is just a strawman promoted on HN. The Dao was a single instantiation of this sort of idea promoted by a small number of non-core developers - it doesn't define the idea of smart contracts.
- davidgerard 9y agoHeavily promoted by the Ethereum Foundation principals, and by, oh look, Stephen Tual of slock.it. It's an idea that's been around a long time in the airy-fairy world of smart contract hypothesising.
