As of now, each wallet can vote to up to 30 candidates to serve as block producers it's worth noting that block producers with the most support on the network have less than 3 percent of the current token supply backing them.

By expanding the number of block producer candidates it can vote for, it might also expand the number that feel inclined to follow the company's lead. "I agree that Block.One has an oversized voice," Kauffman granted, but he also pointed out that the best way for Block.
