> TLDR, a small amount of voters can basically hijack quorums by throwing tokens at the problem. Users that upstake proposals risk losing their tokens at stake if the organization ends up voting in the opposite direction that they predicted. It's not completely resistant to gaming but it does make attempting to game the system riskier. > Aragon is yet another "we'll give you large sums of money if you use our platform" without clearly indicating the why or how of where the money comes from, and how they intend to profit. Aragon makes no claim of giving users "large sums of money", or any sums of money at all for that matter. The Aragon Association does give some grants to developers building open source tools for the Aragon ecosystem, and money for these grants comes from the proceeds of a crowdsale held back in 2017. There is no expectation of profit, as the Aragon Association is a registered non-profit.
