Proposal: [Aave DAO] LTIPP Grant Extension Request
Vote: Against
Rationale: we will voting against as the Detox proposal just passed
Proposal: [Constitutional AIP: Proposal to adopt Timeboost, a new transaction ordering policy]
Vote: Collect bids in ETH
Rationale: We have reviewed the new version of the proposal and the ARDC comment. We are in favor of this proposal and support collecting bids in ETH. While the buyback and burn of ARB could increase its utility, we believe this approach offers greater long-term sustainability.
Proposal: Terms of Tenure for STEP program manager
Vote: For
Rationale: We support allocating the additional funds to extend contract for the full one-year term, recognizing the significant effort invested in setting up the STEP program. A six-month term risks disrupting the program’s momentum and creating operational inefficiencies, whereas securing their management for the entire year ensures continuity and stability.
Proposal: ArbitrumDAO Off-site
Vote: (1st) Abstain, (2nd) IRL/Conference/no scholarships, (3rd) IRL/separate/no scholarships, (4th) IRL/Conference/scholarships, (5th) IRL.seperate/scholarships, (6th) Online event, (7th) Drop idea and do nothing.
Rationale: We are voting in favor of the ArbitrumDAO Offsite on Snapshot, as it has the potential to enhance community collaboration. However, we suggest providing a more detailed budget breakdown to ensure all costs are adequately covered, considering hybrid participation options like summaries or recordings for those unable to attend in person, and prioritizing security measures to ensure the safety of all delegates traveling to an unfamiliar area.
Proposal: GovHack Devcon in Bangkok - Hack Humanity
Vote: For
Rationale: We will vote in support of the GovHack event. Building on the success of past GovHacks—like bringing in new contributors and gathering top delegates, the event introduces a dedicated " Arbitrum core day" to fix issues we’ve noticed, ensuring new participants quickly understand the main goals. With the HackHumanity team’s proven track record and a reasonable budget, we have full confidence in their ability to deliver a high-impact event. While we’re eager to work together on refining how participants prepare for the strategy-focused parts, we believe these details can be fine-tuned in the coming months. As locals in Bangkok, we’re excited to help coordinate and offer our local knowledge to make this event even more efficient and impactful for the ArbitrumDAO community.
Proposal: [Non-Constitutional] Funds to Bolster Foundation’s Strategic Partnerships Budget
Vote: For
Rationale: After reviewing this proposal and considering feedback from other delegates, we have decided to support it. We recognize that without approving this allocation, the Arbitrum ecosystem could miss out on significant strategic opportunities essential for its growth and competitiveness. However, we acknowledge that 250 million ARB is a substantial amount, so we want to ensure that these funds will be used in the most efficient and effective way possible. We would appreciate seeing detailed plans and regular reports to monitor the utilization of these funds. With this in mind, we believe this proposal will enable the Foundation to secure high-impact partnerships and initiatives that might otherwise be unattainable, ultimately benefiting the entire Arbitrum community.
Proposal: [Non-Constitutional] Arbitrum DAO Delegate Incentive Program
Vote: For - DIP V1.5
Rationale: We support the Delegate Incentive Program proposal v1.5 and and want to give a big thanks to the Seedlatam team for putting it together. It’s honestly one of the most comprehensive and impactful delegate incentive experiments out there in the DAO space. Huge props to Seedlatam and everyone involved—the proposal is clear and well-structured. Since the program leans on Seedlatam to evaluate delegate comment quality, we’re confident they’ll keep things neutral throughout. Additionally, Curia has received a Questbook grant to build a governance analytics dashboard that also monitors delegate activities. As part of this grant, we’ll be providing monthly reports on delegate activities, participation, and engagement metrics to keep everything transparent and help the community verify the information. Our goal is to enable the community to track how effective the incentive program is, monitor these contributions, and help it succeed in the long run
