CORRECTION: In last month’s voting results email, I reported that we had approved the creation of 118,850 new BSQ, or roughly 40,000 BSQ per month on average. This number was incorrect (I was looking at the wrong tab in the spreadsheet). The actual numbers should have been that we had created 170,450 BSQ over 3 months, or roughly 57,000 BSQ per month on average.
