Entropy Advisors: Exclusively Working With Arbitrum DAO
The high budget of $2.791M and additional potential bonuses raise concerns about cost-effectiveness and necessity. The lack of clear metrics for success and detailed accountability mechanisms makes it challenging to fully endorse the significant financial commitment required. 
Adjusting Arbitrum’s Gas Fees
Supporting this proposal is wise as it promptly addresses the immediate revenue decline by adjusting the L2 base fee while laying the groundwork for a flexible, long-term solution. This dual approach secures essential ETH inflow, sustains Arbitrum’s competitive edge, and ensures the DAO’s economic stability and adaptability in an ever-changing market environment.
Jumpstart fund for DAO improvement
This proposal seems unnecessary because the DAO already has established processes for funding proposals and addressing operational challenges. The added complexity of a pilot fund and problem-gathering exercise appears redundant. The existing mechanisms should be sufficient to identify and prioritize issues without the need for an additional layer of bureaucracy and funding allocation.

By keeping votes private until the end, it ensures decisions are based on genuine opinions rather than external pressures. This approach promotes more thoughtful and unbiased participation, crucial for effective and fair governance.
Proposal to Temporary Extend Delegate Incentive System.
VOTED for.
Extending the current Delegate Incentive System is a prudent move to ensure continuity and avoid gaps in delegate motivation while transitioning to v1.1. This extension prevents disruption in incentives and maintains engagement, crucial for effective governance. The proposal supports stability and allows adequate time for refining the new system, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted evolution of the incentive structure.
Strategic Treasury Management on Arbitrum
Implementing the Arbitrum Strategic Treasury Management Group is a proactive approach to ensuring the DAO’s long-term sustainability and growth. Allocating 250M ARB to a specialized group using advanced non-custodial tools, the proposal enhances transparency, accountability, and effective resource management.
Should the DAO Create COI & Self Voting Policies?
I agree with the “FOR: Responsible Voting Policy” vote as it balances ethical governance with practical delegation needs. Maintaining trust while allowing effective representation is crucial. Exploring tools to automate conflict of interest disclosures is an excellent idea. It would streamline transparency, making it easier for delegates to manage and disclose potential conflicts, thus enhancing overall governance integrity.

I just have one question @ rodrigolvc , How will Arbitrum’s sponsorship visibility and engagement be measured and reported?
Ethereum Protocol Attackathon Sponsorship
Excellent! As a recommendation, there are tools like Hootsuite and HubSpot that can help you track the reach of the channels you’re using to distribute content. Another very useful tool is Meta Business from Facebook and Instagram. If you’ll be sending mass emails, you could use Mailchimp to check who opens the emails, allowing you to target more interested recipients with specific advertising. If you need help or advice with this, I can assist you. 
RFC - Delegate Incentive Program v1.1
This continuity ensures that delegates can maintain long-term engagement, which is crucial for the sustained health of decentralized governance. The proposed budget appears well-calculated, and the increase in monthly compensation for delegates is not only justified but necessary, particularly in light of the significant 65% year-to-date decline in the value of ARB.
The introduction of bonus points for participating in governance calls is a particularly commendable enhancement. Active participation in these calls often leads to deeper discussions and more nuanced understanding of proposals, which in turn fosters more informed and thoughtful voting.
I am highly supportive of this proposal, as it reflects a thoughtful approach to maintaining and enhancing the incentives for active, informed participation in governance, which is essential for the success and resilience of the ecosystem.
@ SEEDGov It would be great if delegates could meet in a XSpaces (Twitter) session to discuss the most relevant aspects of the ARB ecosystem and generate more proposals, not just in writing.
Proposal: Low-cost Enhancement to HyperLiquid Integration
How will this rebranding affect other applications or projects currently using Arbitrum that are not related to Hyperliquid? Could this shift in identity alienate or discourage those other users?
