The Cronos<\/a> community has approved a controversial decision to restore 70 billion CRO tokens permanently burned in 2021.<\/p>\n

The proposal, largely influenced by Crypto.com<\/a>, passed after securing 62.18% of votes, according to Mintscan<\/a>. This move increases the total CRO supply back to 100 billion.<\/p>\n

The proposal, introduced earlier this month, aimed to establish a Cronos Strategic Reserve by reversing the previous token burn.<\/p>\n

Its authors argued that the restoration aligns with Cronos' long-term vision, supports ecosystem growth, and could fund AI-driven applications.<\/p>\n

Controversies trail proposal passage<\/h2>\n

Despite passing the vote, the decision has sparked backlash within the Cronos community.<\/p>\n

Many crypto community members criticized the process, citing concerns over decentralization and Crypto.com's significant influence. Sonic co-founder Andre Cronje stated<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Tomorrow Cronos goes from $2.5bn mcap to $8.5bn mcap with a single vote and all it needed was a single voter.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

CryptoSlate<\/em> previously reported that early community voting strongly opposed\u00a0the proposal<\/a>, with many members rejecting the idea.<\/p>\n

Yet, in the final hours of the voting period on March 16, a surge of 3.35 billion CRO tokens from large validators, including Starship, Falcon Heavy, Electron, Antares, and Minotaur IV, shifted the outcome in favor of Crypto.com's position.<\/p>\n

Critics argue that this last-minute shift highlights deeper issues within Cronos' governance structure. Some believe the move undermines trust in the network and sets a precedent for reversing critical economic decisions.<\/p>\n

CRO advocate Wyll Bilderberg expressed<\/a> concerns about the precedent set by reversing a token burn. He noted that such actions could encourage other projects to follow suit, eroding confidence in tokenomics.<\/p>\n

He added:<\/p>\n

\n

“I have no words, I see it as a nail in the coffin of decentralization, and can only pray for the community to benefit from this move.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Meanwhile, the market sentiment reflected these concerns. Following the approval, CRO's price dropped over 8% to $0.07, according to CryptoSlate's<\/em> data<\/a>, signaling investor uncertainty over the move.<\/p>\n
