Promote with Leviathan NewsScroll DAO, the governance body associated with Ethereum Layer 2 network Scroll, has paused its governance process after key leadership resignations created confusion over the status of active proposals. Delegates learned on a recent governance call that operations would be “paused” following the departure of a primary leader known as Eugene, which left remaining leaders unsure which proposals were in progress or already approved. Community delegate Olimpio and others reported that while existing proposals stayed visible and technically live, there was no clear process for how they would be handled during the pause. Scroll co-founder Haichen Shen told delegates that the DAO’s governance is being redesigned, with discussion and external commentary indicating a move away from the earlier, more distributed delegate model toward a more centralized or foundation-led structure. The shift has raised concerns among token holders and delegates about transparency, the fate of pending initiatives—such as council formation and financial management proposals—and how much decision-making power the community will retain once the new model is in place. For Scroll, which had positioned its DAO as a key mechanism for treasury management and ecosystem development, the pause represents a significant test of its decentralization experiment and highlights broader challenges DAOs face in maintaining effective governance through leadership changes and structural redesigns.
