Bribes paid only in AQUA
Aquarius proposes: all bribes in its voting system must be paid exclusively in AQUA token. The change aims to prevent price manipulation, eliminate trustline spam, and level the playing field for voters and projects. Currently, bribes can be paid in any asset, enabling price manipulation and artificial inflation of trustline counts.
Aquarius governance proposes restricting all bribe payments in its voting system to AQUA only. The proposal targets multiple pain points in the current system: eliminating price manipulation vectors where assets are bid high when creating bribes then dumped afterwards, preventing artificial trustline inflation and the appearance of false support, and removing friction from requiring trustlines to receive non-AQUA bribes. The 100K AQUA minimum threshold remains unchanged. The move is designed to support the ecosystem token's price and simplify participation for voters.
