What area are you most interested in contributing to? choose up tot wo tags:

  • Supporting Infrastructure
  • Tooling, Improving protocol decentralization

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:
I think that liquidity mining is second to protocol decentralization and stability. I think that developer friction and onboarding/offboarding is ALMOST as important as liquidity mining and thus I think that focusing on the technology, process, and people is likely the most important thing to be focusing on, and liquidity mining as a short second. I think the overall goal should be to foster innovation through proper vetting and delegation. The last thing needed is a poorly vetted proposal that begins to lopside the dao.

Sample Voting Issue 1:

  • Uniswap planned to use Flipside to attract new users to Uniswap through bounties. Although the program outline and funding was fine, the proposal was contentious because it gave Flipside crypto too much control over allocating UNI to bounties and oversight of the entire program.
  • For instance, Flipside had 3/7 seats on the allocation committee and 1/3 seats on the Oversight committee. There was also concern since none of the other analytics service providers were involved in the proposal.
  • This proposal flew under the radar but at the 11th hour got very heated. Large votes from university clubs supported the proposal since they would get a seat on the allocation committee. However, Dune and Leshner spoke up about the issue because of the centralization of power and favor of one service provider.

Prompts to Answer:

  1. How would you vote?

I would vote against.

  1. What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?
    I would likely likley amend this proposal to include a phase-in or deferred seat allocation. It doesnā€™t make sense to commit 3/7 seats for a bounty protocol without proper representation. I think that is likely what brings DAOs down is that these things float under the radar and then get contentious in the 11th hour because it wasnā€™t properly lobbied and then it was viewed as an over commitment without merit. Perception is key.

  2. How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?

There lies the problem. The technology was probably properly there but the proper people and process were highly under implemented causing the wrong perception to be granted at the wrong time, which was too late in voting procedure. For DAOs to work, again at the cost of sounding like a broken record, people - process - technology have to be instantiated to carry the voting procedures through. It can be done but it takes dedication tooling and more to ensure the proper questions are represented up-front to not create noise later.

Sample Voting Issue 2:
Issue Overview:

FEI RARI Hack Reimbursement: In April 2022 Rari was hacked for 80M, a vote was passed to reimburse those affected. Then in May 2022 another vote to refund the Rari hacked was brought forward this time it was not passed.

Prompts to Answer:

Outside the flipping of the vote, how would you choose to handle this situation?
i.e should parties be reimbursed for an exploit or not? (Please choose one of the below options and then elaborate upon your reasoning)

no reimbursement but maybe a delayed reimbursement or split reimbursement
I suppose a split reimbursement is likely a good option. Here is reality though. This is going to happen without proper tooling and technology. I would be willing to vote delayed and/or split if it was proven, without reasonable doubt, that this was due to negligence of the technology implementation. If it was proven, through audit, to be beyond negligence, meaning an exploit occurred through some other means beyond human understanding (some under appreciated vulnerability) then I would vote NO as there is only the extent of human understanding. Againā€¦a certified audit would be able to share how the exploit occurred.

What area are you most interested in contributing to? choose up to two tags:

  • Improving Governance participation

    • Governance participation continues to plague a majority of DAOs. With our experience across many top DeFi and layer 2 DAOs, we will place a focus on increasing governance participation through delegation and education.

  • Tooling, Improving protocol decentralization

    • StableLab is the leader in professional delegation and governance framework design. We strive to help DAO decentralize sustainably.
    • We work in numerous DAOs where we author proposals to implement frameworks that help DAO decentralize safely. You can check out our authored proposals here.

Please share your stance on the overall goals for the DAO:

Our goal for the Arbitrum DAO is for it to decentralize safely and sustainably. Our systematic framework for DAOs covers governance methodologies, decentralized workforce, implementation, documentation, communication, and community engagement. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, but we provide a framework of principles and tools we have developed throughout our experience. We hope to help Arbitrum implement strong governance frameworks to increase participation as well as the efficiency and effectiveness of the DAO.

Sample Voting Issue 1:

1. How would you vote?

  • Against

2. What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?

  1. Adjust the allocation committee to be comprised of more neutral parties. Additionally, this committee should be voted on with strict term limits and responsibilities to make the process fairer and less centralized.

  2. Clear KPIs. Having vague transparency dashboards and committees does not make it clear if the program is succeeding or not. Instead, it is better to have concrete KPIs so the community can easily tell how the program is performing

  3. Break this proposal into multiple smaller proposals.

    • Including who sits on the committees
    • A grant proposal for Community-Enabled Analytics for Flipside
    • How treasury funds will be managed
      Putting this all in one proposal makes things confusing for voters and mixes some positive aspects of the proposal with negative ones.

3. How would you approach the tradeoff between the centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?

Decentralization should be thought of as a journey and not a sudden switch. Being completely decentralized from the start is not feasible as it can be a slow and inefficient way of making decisions. However, through the implementation of strong governance frameworks, the decentralization process can be made more efficient. It takes time to implement frameworks such as proposal timelines, working groups, and automatic proposal implementations. With these frameworks and a strong governance system in place, a decentralized protocol can get things done similar to centralized organizations but with the transparency and trustlessness that decentralization offers.

While we believe that protocol should work towards decentralization it is important to do it sustainably to ensure that the protocol remains efficient and canā€™t be taken advantage of. We look forward to helping Arbitrum DAO on its decentralization journey.

Sample Voting Issue 2:

Vote: Full Reimbursement

Rationale: Reimbursement after a hack is a difficult subject and should be looked at on a case-by-case basis. Some things to be considered when deciding on whether to distribute reimbursement are was the hack easily preventable, who would bare the brunt of the cost of reimbursement, would reimbursement cause the protocol to go under, does the protocol plan to continue operating after the hack, how large is the DAO treasury, is there any other way to go about reimbursement such as revenue split to eventually pay back those affected.

In the first snapshot proposal, not enough of these questions were answered. This can lead to uninformed decision making which can be dangerous for a DAO. As Rari eventually deprecated their governance and protocol it makes sense for any existing money to be used to make those affected whole. However, this must be done very carefully you must consider in what order and in what asset you will pay people back. Additionally, if the funds available cannot cover all affected will you make some users whole, spread the money evenly, or spread it proportionally.

In situations like this, it is very important to consider all options and be transparent with information. This helps voters understand the situation and cast an educated vote which is more likely to lead to a beneficial outcome.

Liquidity mining has proven to be a workable strategy to incentivizing liquidity providers and community contributors to DAO ecosystems. As much as liquidity mining enhances rapid growth of a DAO, the risk tolerance of the DAO is to be considered. This rightly relies on the goal of the DAO ā€¦in this case, Arbitrum. Security of funds is key as well as transparent governance protocol and modality.

  3. There should be a balance. This is because, things has to really be done for the good and advancement of the DAO and ecosystem. Some level of centralization may be observed, meanwhile not at the detriment of the need for getting things done.

Sample Voting Issue 2

I would settle for split reimbursement. Given the transparency that should exist in a DAO, a hack is a loss for the organization and the community at large. (Provided that error codes in the contract isnā€™t a fault from the organization)

In a split and vesting format, those affected could be reimbursed. Lack of funds could be the reason for the flipping of the votes. As such care should be taken not to cripple the ecosystem completely in view of a mandatory full reimbursement. I think split gradual reimbursement would ba a better way to go at least the much advocated mass adoption would be achievable. Hacks could create apathy and distrust for the decentralized ecosystem. As such in a split and vesting manner the affected individuals could still be happy with the DAO.

Liquidity mining is a necessary element of web3 however one always has to assess the
The goal of our DAO is to increase arbitrum governance participation with the help of NFTs and an aggressive liquidity mining strategy early on that would later be evaluated as the protocol grows. We believe it is important to offer competitive yield compared to other popular protocols to be able to increase the TVL in the protocol. It is however important that this is done with risk-assessment as it should not be aggressive enough that it could harm or hinder the chains growth. It is also important to balance this correctly as to let an organic growth and grass root of communities, DAOs, projects etc to appear.

The plan for our DAO is to make it easy and simple for users of other protocols to participate in arbitrum while at the same time be profitable for our community as we grow together with arbitrum. This will be done through our NFTs and staking with community rewards for governance participation. I believe with the help of an airdrop allocation we can build this and grow organically and maximize the value of the $ARB for the future of the protocol and communities it will give life to.

  1. How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?

It is a very hard but important task to keep at mind and the only purpose of web3 to ensure decentralization of applications however we are currently in the building stages of this new decentralized network and will have to make centralized decisions for the sake of a decentralized future. Centralized decisions should only ever be accepted if they are taken as a last measure and only for the sake of the future of decentralization. This is very hard to balance and work out however I believe that we have to delegate some authority in good faith until its not longer technically needed.

There should be no standard practice of refunds in web3/defi. This is a new space and everyone is taking risks while building and creating and the same goes for users who are trying to profit off the protocols. Web3 projects/companies are free to offer refunds if they wish to but it is definitely not the duty of the protocol and is standard ToS at any decent web3 application.

  • Public Goods funding
  • Improving Governance participation
  • Tooling, Improving protocol decentralization

I fully truly honestly believe in decentralization. Everywhere in DeFi and in crypto. Crypto is phenomenal in that it leaves governance and steering aspects to the group of stakeholders, without any authority getting involved. It allows individuals to realize their visions and produce wealth generating apps, service providing projects, and life-changing/saving protocols - such as the Arbitrum eco-system.

However, financial independence and life improving apps are only for a few chosen ones - how many are currently invested in crypto? Under 1 % of the worldā€™s population? To make the rich richer is not what Iā€™m interested in. Quite the contrary. I see a great advantage in the use of crypto for the underprivileged ones, be that in my own country, Germany, as well as in developing and poorer countries around the world. Crypto as a means of payment throughout Africa would help solve many problems. I do believe it is this absolutely mandatory to give back to the community once you receive an abundance of things, in terms of finances, knowledge, or services. Help the needy ones to help themselves, is what I believe. This revelation came to me after a 2-year-long stage in Africa with residencies in Kenya and Cameroon.

I believe sharing is caring.

I equally believe reaching out to the brilliant minds that support crypto and the Arbitrum eco-system already is what could speed up things in above mentioned areas. Hence I fully support a Governance system comprised of socially-minded individuals, who simultaneously are equipped with a great mind for finances and the future of the world (no less). This system would be set up to improve communication, development of services, development of the platform and the onboarded projects and facilitate sharing of assets and services to the public, as well as crisis management, should such. crisis arise.

Sample Voting Issue 1:

  1. How would you vote?
    Against

As a future delegate, I would vote against the Uniswap proposal in its actual state. Yes, I think a project like Uniswap may choose bounties and other ideas to attract new users to the platform at their own free will. And Flipside, as a data analyst company, which gives back to the community by offering cost-free data - I use those services myself, might have been an appropriate partner. And I feel much cares has been placed on the fairness of the deal for both sides, including transparency, openess, community involvement, and! I honestly believe I would have reached the intended goals:

ā€˜Flipsideā€™s value proposition begins with analytics, but its true purpose is to drive ecosystem acquisition and retention.ā€™

But at what price?

With Flipside onboard it feels like giving Alphabet/Google or worse: Facebook/Meta the opportunity to support your project: you never know, who they drag along, and what they plan on doing with your data - selling it would be just one of my worries.

  1. What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?
    Hence, I believe the planned partnership with Flipside would have led away from decentralization and toward a much more centralized structure and came dangerously close to giving controlling powers to one single entity. And the ensuing fight for the few seats made it very obvious what direction the proposal was about to take, benefitting already privileged ones, the Flipside stakeholders.

As a delegate I would make sure to change the proposal so that more than one partner joined.

  1. How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?

To protect the Arbitrum eco-systemā€™s decentralization and independence constitutes the highest goal for me. Hence I would each give them one seat (5 for Uniswap) and I would allocate where a certain percentage of the funds had to go to. I would herewith strengthen the independence and decentralization of Uniswap.

Sample Voting Issue 2:
The FEI RARI Hack incident made me cringe. We have all been involved in exploits, hacks, and rug pulls, hence my sentiment after hearing about this was hack was: those poor souls. So much many that was invested to secure someoneā€™s pension or livelihood, all those hard-earned tokens that were stolen, I felt for the victims.

And yes, my first reaction was, hopefully they were getting reimbursed. I remembered the last exploit I was involved in, where the criminal Devs, who stole the money, simply disappeared. It was a feeling of anger and desperation.

Generally, I lean toward full reimbursement in most cases.

Having said that as a delegate, I would look at such an terrible situation very carefully. Yes, there should be reimbursement payed out to investors. But how much would depend on the overall situation.

  1. Full Reimbursement
    In this case I would have supported full reimbursement. It is technically and financially feasible. Plus, it was the responsibility of the protocol owners to repair a known security issue:

Quote from the Block.co: ā€œThe incident involved a common issue known as a reentrancy bug, a smart contract vulnerability that enables hackers to make repeated calls to a protocol in order to steal assets. Just a few weeks ago, two DeFi protocols on Gnosis Chain ā€“ Hundred Finance and Agave ā€“ lost customer funds amounting to more than $11 million in flash loan attacks resulting from reentrancy bugs.ā€

I would support Arbitrum 100%. I am not involved in any other project as a delegate, my mind is totally free of a conflict of interest. I would be exclusively responsible to Arbitrumā€™s community and its best interest. It would make me very proud to serve Arbitrum and its community. Iā€™m a freelance artist, so there will be ample time to do so.
