Hello NEAR Community, (Attempt #2 at this poll, there have been some changes to EasyPoll) The Near Digital Collective (NDC) is preparing for the upcoming nominations on July 20th. As part of this process, each nominee will be required to explain their stance on three key issues that the NDC community deems most important. Nominees may also choose an additional issue to share a stance on. Our aim is to ensure that all nominees have shared their opinions on these issues, enabling voters to more efficiently assess the viability of various nominees in bringing about the will of the NDC community. To help us identify these key issues, we have created a poll and we need your input. We encourage everyone to participate in the poll and share their thoughts. Your input is crucial in shaping the future of the NDC.
