I think the issues to evolve our democracies are not directly connected with technologies (e.g. crypto). Indeed as an incumbent I see that crypto "wants to" reinvent democracy and at the end they only find that they are just reinventing the wheel, or resulting in a square wheel. Democracy seems more linked to institutions and great organizations with strong fundamentals and good vision.
Regarding liquid democracy specifically I think it inherit the problems of issue oriented politics: "don’t miss the forest for the trees", democracies are
looking for short term clientelistic policies because the short term pays better to politicians.

No part of me believes we'd have this functional a society today if the founders of America had resembled the values, motivations, and access to technology of the crypto/tech community.
