Hector Network, a decentralized finance project, is facing a governance dilemma as it considers a proposal to wrap itself within an offshore corporate structure that includes directors, supervisors, and a management board. This proposal, known as HIP 40, has been met with skepticism from many HEC token holders who fear it will dilute their influence over how Hector runs. The project's lawyer, Dali from the tech law firm Sparring, argues that a professional organization run and managed by people with expertise in specific areas is necessary for success in business. He believes that HIP 40 will provide the necessary legal wrapper and allow Hector to be a reliable partner to non-Web3-native companies.

The Arbitrum Foundation caused controversy when it transferred funds from Arbitrum DAO without community approval, but CEO and co-founder of Offchain Labs, Steven Goldfeder, sees this as a necessary step towards decentralization. In March, the foundation proposed transferring 750 million ARB tokens worth $1 billion to its own wallets, but before the DAO could vote on the proposal, the foundation sent the majority of the tokens to itself. The community voted against the move, prompting the foundation to propose expanding ARB token holders' oversight of the budget and voting powers. The community approved proposals addressing the ARB tokens moved to the foundation's wallet and amendments to the DAO's governance, constitution, and bylaws. Goldfeder believes that the events ultimately led to greater transparency and community control, demonstrating that the DAO is in control.
