Blockworks Research will be voting _ **FOR** _ this proposal on Snapshot. We don’t have much to add to what has already been pointed out by other community members here, but we think it’s important to reiterate what was said by @JoJo regarding trusting an elected committee. It’s inefficient for the DAO as a whole to participate in the decision-making process of every single implementation, and given that elected committee members are specialized within their operational area, the DAO should feel comfortable relying on these members to make the optimal decisions. We also appreciate the additional color concerning the selection process provided by @Bernard. Lastly, the amount of ARB requested seems very reasonable. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/adding-a-security-sme-to-the-adpc/23526)._
