On the opt-in and opt-out point I want to add another thing to consider. Users were sold on a methodology that we are implementing. Assuming they are responsible investors and did their research, explicitly in the methodology it states:
The token must be a bearer instrument. None of the following will be included in the index:
- Wrapped tokens.
- Tokenized derivatives.
- Synthetic assets.
- Tokens that are tied to physical assets.
- Tokens that represent claims on other tokens.
IP would be a departure from that, which is within the rights of the Coop as we implement the methodology, but would be a really bad look to a holder, who bought something expecting a certain methodology, that was all of a sudden changed without them opting into the changes.
Any departures from the methodology should be opt-in in my opinion.
