Marinade Says Council Blocked DAO Takeover Attempt

The significance lies less in the attempt itself than in the fact that a council veto, not token-holder voting, was the decisive check — a reminder that many DAOs retain emergency brakes that can override governance outcomes. That design protects users and staked assets in a crisis, but it also means token governance is only as sovereign as the council allows. The open question is whether Marinade revisits its proposal-review process, or whether the veto is treated as the system working as intended.
