GovMonth Friday wrap up
Welcome to our first GovMonth Friday wrap up. And all we can say is wow. Just wow. It’s all a bit overwhelming, so let’s hit the highlights:
Week 1 kickoff
On Tuesday, the #GovMonth kick-off was hosted by the Arbitrum Foundation with special guests from Plurality Labs and ThriveCoin. We had about 600 community members listen in and something north of 19K impressions.

On Wednesday #GovMonth had our first partner deep dive hosted by ArbitrumNewsDAO, with guests from ThriveCoin, PushProtocol, and QuestBook. The audience was smaller, but we had some great insights. Link to the twitterspace https://twitter.com/i/spaces/1MYxNgwlveXKw
On Friday, momentum has been bolstered by GitcoinGrants announcing that GrantsStack is now available on Arbitrum One:
As we close our week, our socials have exploded. Our #GovMonth kick off tweet has over 51,000 impressions and over 11,000 retweets:
The @ArbitrumGrants twitter account exploded. We grew to +4000 twitter followers in 22 days and with more than 7000 subscribers, Arbitrum now has one of the largest PushProtcol subscriber bases, surpassing CoinDesk, Snapshot, LensProtocol, and the EthGasPriceTracker. In four days.
In reality, that is all just eye-candy. Let’s talk real work.
