Compound Foundation Denies Misusing V2 Reserves in $52M V4 Vote

The dispute matters less for the vote's outcome than for what it reveals about governance optics: a foundation accumulating voting power ahead of a treasury spend, even when the result was already secured, invites scrutiny of how protocol insiders marshal influence. The denial settles nothing on its own, since the underlying records and the Foundation's account are being weighed by the same community that governs the treasury. Whether this stays a one-off allegation or prompts a broader look at foundation voting practices is the open question.
