Beanstalk Farms

"When a government betrays the people by amassing too much power and becoming tyrannical, the people have no choice but to exercise their original right of self-defense – to fight the government.” — Alexander Hamilton

Proposer: Beanstalk Farmer (not a troll as the BFC minions noted to delegitimize the proposal)

Summary: Remove “sweetredbeans” from BFC. We proposed the removal of “sweetredbeans” via BFCP-B-3 but the current BFC members failed to announce the proposal on Discord to notify farmers. In addition, they had their minions delegitimize the proposal to reduce voter turnout. We hope the BFC makes the proper announcements for this proposal.

Quorum Note: Quorum is 35% of total outstanding Stalk participating in the vote.

Voting Choices: Keep “sweetredbeans” as BFC member Remove “sweetredbeans” from BFC

Background: According to Beanstalk Farms governance, at least 3 BFC members will control Beanstalk Farms. Accordingly, BFCP-C-3 extended the terms of guy, mod323, sweetredbeans until end of H2 2023.

Proposal: Considering the current BFC teams members are not actively engaged with the Beanstalk community, this BFCP is proposed to remove the current BFC member “sweetredbeans” by rescinding BFCP-C-3. In addition, several BFC members are not even active members of Discord and do not respond to messages. The community needs BFC members who are willing to communicate!

Immediately following the successful removal of the current BFC members, we will hold an emergency BIP to elect 3 new BFC members into the BFC that will engage more with the community and provide substanstive updates and timelines.

Rationale: Need a more transparent group of BFC members to keep the community engaged. Currently all timelines and project updates are discussed behind closed doors.

New BFC Members: Going forward BFC members should be able to effectively communicate development and audit plans and timelines. There are several Farmers who have effectively done this type of work in other communities (some of which are currently working on protocols that would benefit Beanstalk). We will propose a list of names as we progress with the removal of the current BFC members.
