This proposal extends [social-consensus](http://forum.aztec.network/t/upgrade-proposal-non-govnernance-via-social-consensus/611) with a prediction market.  
Migrations are not only manual for users, but come with an increased fee (small). This fee is used to inform the network of smart-contract-risk in an objective manner.

Upgrades of cryptographic primitives come with extreme risks. I bet that most long-term upgrade proposals eventually fall prey to a critical security vulnerability.  
Therefore upgrades should be avoided in favor of ossification.
