The 'one holder can meet quorum alone' test for DAO decentralisation under MiCA is a law firm's own 2026 formulation — neither the Danish FSA's June 2024 principles nor the EBA-ESMA January 2025 report uses the word 'quorum'

The gap between nominal vote weight and actual power is measured in the same vocabulary by a 1979 CS replication protocol and a 1968 law-review critique — but the 2024-25 EU crypto regulators' texts do not use the word 'quorum'; the regulatory echo was a law firm's
