The EOS Community did not take the backlash for granted, and a lot of heated debates are being raised in the EOSIO Governance Telegram group.

This article is inspired by this tweet from Luke Stokes of EOSDac:

I blink and there's another 1,000+ messages in the EOSIO Gov Telegram channel. If people cared this much about physical governments, I'd almost think we could turn them into something more voluntary. The sticking point is always that monopoly on violence though...

We pulled out some interesting stats of the group chat from Combot as EOSGov is integrated with it.

Interpreting the Graphs - Numbers Never Lie

During the last couple of days, as controversies around ECAF, the Constitution and Exchanges voting fuelled an exponential rise to the traffic of the Telegram group.

1. Within the last 2 weeks, each day, there are around 75-125 users who post at least 1 message.

3. It's astounding how the EOS community is responding and digesting all the criticism (whether it's constructive or toxic) coming from the outer world. Heated debates caused over 20,000 messages to be sent in less than a month (June)

Conclusion

Comparing the data of EOSIO Gov with traditional political/economical engagement, we can observe how the Internet is able to unite so many people into one place: EOS, to discuss and participate in its governance on a 24/7 basis. This Telegram group is for the EOS token holders just like how the Parthenon was for Athens. This will only get better in the future, as many community members are coming up with some amazing ideas about how to build scalable decentralized chat/forums that will be run on-chain.
