Curia Delegate Communication Thread

Proposal: [RFC] Proposal to Adjust the Voting Power of the Arbitrum Community Pool & Ratifying the Agentic Governance Pivot

Vote: Option C - Reduce delegation to 0

Rationale: We are voting Option C: Wind down the whole initiative and return the ARB to the treasury because the current implementation no longer aligns with the original purpose of the approved proposal.

Event Horizon initially received a 7 million ARB delegation to experiment with a public-access voter pool aimed at broadening meaningful community participation in governance. However, the program has since pivoted to an AI-driven, agentic governance model—a fundamental shift that was not part of the original mandate and has not yet been ratified by the DAO.

While we support innovation and experimentation in governance, significant changes to the scope and intent of a treasury-backed initiative should be brought back to the DAO for explicit approval. Until such a revised proposal is submitted and evaluated by the community, we believe it is necessary and appropriate to wind down the current initiative and return the ARB to the treasury.

That said, we strongly recommend that the 7 million ARB not remain idle. Instead, the DAO should explore new ways to redeploy these tokens to continue supporting quorum and enhancing inclusive participation. Should Event Horizon wish to pursue delegation again under a new model, we would welcome a formal proposal clearly outlining their updated goals, structure, and evaluation metrics.
