Digits DAO Faces Slash Vote Over Alleged Silent Closing

Digits DAO currently faces an Ethos slash vote opened by an Ethos user with a score of 1909. The vote is titled "Silent Closing" and places 100 points at stake. The voting period closes on Thursday, November 12 at 18:59 Paris time.

An Ethos slash is a community vote that, if it passes, cuts the account's Ethos score, and here also the scores of 0 accounts that backed it.

The slash alleges that the operator of Digits DAO quietly shut down the project and deleted related accounts. According to the slash, a "treasury wind down" was announced exclusively in a Discord channel that most users have muted, rather than on more public platforms. The author claims this approach was taken "to pay out as few people as he could" by relying on the fact that few users check those specific announcements. The slash further alleges that operators advised members to hold their tokens for years to reflect a healthy friendship before initiating this sudden closure. According to the slash, "over 413 wallets still hold around 83 million $DIGITS tokens" while the operator allegedly held nearly half the token supply from personal buys.

The vote remains open for the community to decide. At this time, the slash has received 30 upvotes and 1 downvote.

Digits DAO holds an overall Ethos score of 1220. The project review totals consist of one negative review, zero neutral reviews, and zero positive reviews. The project bio is empty, but data indicates Digits DAO functioned alongside a sister fund called NAV. Another review on the platform echoes the slash allegations, claiming the operator was "quietly winding down Digits DAO and NAV via Discord" without notifying the broader community on other social channels. This review also notes that a rival fund "separately described both wind-downs as happening on muted Discord channels" and pointed out that associated social media profiles were removed. However, that same review mentions that in previous years, multiple accounts praised the project for expanding its operations between 2022 and 2023.
