Hello Hello and welcome to another Daily Dose of EOS! As always, I'm your host Jacques and you can find me on twitter @JacquesWhales

Let’s jump right into the news!

EOS Referendum is Live!

The long-awaited EOS Referendum system is live! After getting the last of the 16 BP approval it needed this morning, the referendum contract was deployed to the system account, eosio.forum.

You can check it out for yourself by visiting eos.discussions.app and clicking on the Referendum sub.

As you can see, there is already one referendum here that has been proposed.

What does this mean now that the referendum is live? This means now any token holder can propose a change to the system and if it gets at least 15% of token votes, it’ll be implemented.

This is a huge deal. Up until now, token holders can only through their BP, propose changes.Now, token holders can do it themselves.

So what are some of the things that could be done only via referendum?A lot, like changing how many premium accounts get auction off in day or something like REX!

As I mentioned in the previous video, one of the things holding back REX is the debate of whether or not to include Ram trading fees and premium name auction proceeds to the REX rewards pool.

Because this fundamentally changes the economics of the system, it requires the consensus of the token holders.

And you can see that, if I click on this first referendum right here, that’s exactly what this person wants to do.

Which is to have a vote on REX.

So just to show you how easy the system is, I’ll just log in via scatter, click yes, then hit the vote button and that’ll pop out a scatter confirmation, which you can’t see, but I’ll just confirm that, and there you go!

I’ve just voted yes!

You could also create your own referendum just by clicking on the new post icon.

Here you can see some of the details you’ll need to fil out as well as other things you can do like create a poll.

I won’t go to deep into it in this video, but if you do want to try out for yourself and vote to have a vote on REX, check out eos.discussions.app and click on the referendums sub.

Have you guys bean following the Coffe pun contest? You don’t want to be latte to the party.

Hahahaha I know that was terrible, if you think you can do better head over to the eoscafe sub on eos.discussions.app and enter your own pun/meme/joke on the EOS Cafe contest win up to 5 EOS plus 5000 BEAN tokens.

And here is my favorite one so far:

Though unfortunately he didn’t follow the rules and so he couldn’t qualify for the prize.

Make sure you read the rules!

Alrighty, that’s it for today, I hope you enjoy the video, if you did, give it a like, share it with your friends and if you are watching this and you haven’t done it already, hit that subscribe button.

Man you are fast! What i don't get with the forum, how are referendums identified , that should become system changes

Hahaha I work closely with eos.discussions.app and the Referendum is one of the things we've been paying attention to. Naturally when it went live I had to do a video on it.

By the way, are you open to doing some contracted writing work?

We're exploring producing native content for our platform and are looking for writers.

Drop me a dm on Twitter @JacquesWhales if you are interested.

Ah, didn't know that, sounds great! Just followed you om Twitter!
