1. What is one thing where ArbitrumDAO could support your project’s success in Arbitrum?
A. Support and expand security audit support. This is often the highest cost for independent devs to bring a product or experiment to market, especially for those who want to do things right and are building for the long term. Nerite was passed on for security subsidy from the DAO pilot and that was a crushing blow. Luckily Arb foundation helped out but we wouldnt be able to afford to do this without that help.
B. Where is the arbitrum native angel investor network? Other chains are poaching talented devs and projects for $0 just by organizing angels and providing opportunity. There are tons of devs that just need someone to believe in them to build something great. We need to multiply the chances devs meet that person through intentionally creating connections between people in our ecosystem.
2. What does success for the Arbitrum ecosystem look like to you in 1-2 years?
Winning is being #2 on this list. Losing is continuing to fall down it.
3. What does success in Arbitrum look like specifically for your project in 1-2 years?
Nerite being the largest CDP on Arbitrum with over $250M TVL, plus several other novel protocols being built on top of it.
4. What’s one critical improvement needed in the Arbitrum ecosystem to achieve this success?
Builders need a bigger voice in the DAO.
