User Mike McCarthy suggests half should be re-invested and the other half should be burnt
Half of me thinks lock them up again, the other half thinks we should burn them.
Either way I highly recommend to @Tronfoundation to make a clear communication about the short-to-medium term plans.
This for assurances, confidence, transparency (and just peace of mind for me).
