Areas of interest:

  • Public goods funding
  • DeFi development on Arbitrum

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

First and foremost, the purpose of a DAO is to allow for the healthy and decentralized development of the rollup. This vision, of course, can entail many different aspects, from the more technical and security-focused sections of the rollup (which the DAO should have oversight over) to encourage the development of a healthy ecosystem and growth with the ARB token. Every decision the DAO makes should return to the question: ’ How does this benefit the long-term sustainability and success of not just the ARB token, but also the broader future of rollups?’ .

From this question, we can begin exploring different roles that the DAO could assume in the broader Arbitrum ecosystem and the careful balancing act that follows each decision. Some examples include:

  • Technical protocol and security upgrades: If arbitrum truly wants to be community-owned, they need to have oversight over what the protocol will develop into. However, the average voter will probably not be knowledgeable enough to vote in good faith on whether a development will be fruitful or not. One potential solution that could be explored is a technical subcommittee in charge of overseeing this side of governance, which ultimately might report back to the wider DAO.
  • Liquidity Mining - While this strategy can assist the short-term growth and user acquisition of the protocols selected for these campaigns, it should not be seen as a permanent fixture of any protocol. Liquidity mining serves as a great opportunity for someone to get acquainted somewhere new in search of the yield, but if subsidized too long by the Arbitrum DAO, it could lead to an unhealthy subsidy of protocols through unsustainable emissions.
  • Grants - While liquidity mining handles growing users and technical committees handle the rollup itself, grants are the greatest part of the DAO that will target builders. Grants have to be handled carefully, as they have a degree of social trust needed both from the DAO and the builders. Builders have to be able to demonstrate deliverables for the amount and accountability. Despite the complications, grants will allow for the development of tools and dApps that the space might need, but currently might not be as profitable.

These are just some examples of DAO goals, but of course, there are endless possibilities for what might be handled!

Sample Voting Issue 1 - UniSwap/Flipside Bounty

How would you vote?

For

Delegation of voting power is necessary for any DAO to be able to function efficiently in the long term. Even though it brings a degree of centralisation, as long as they do not control an excessive amount of the larger DAO and they have sufficient accountability measures it’s a good initiative.

What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?

  • Separate the grants into quarterly distributions: For an allocation as large as 25 Million, I don’t believe that it is wise to simply divide it into Year 1 and Year 2. I understand that half of it was going to employing staff so they would rather have the reserve upfront, but considering that the only upside of delivering such amounts once a year is saving some time on transactions and communications, it feels that dividing the allocations into at least quarterly separations would’ve been wiser.
  • Introduce checkpoints across the delegation period: In addition to having a committee handling immediate matters related to the grant, it would’ve been preferable to also introduce routine votes to ensure that the DAO was still comfortable with such a large allocation. This would have also encouraged the grantee to increase accountability and deliver accountability reports.

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

It’s inevitable that effectiveness and decentralisation are inversely proportional. As long as the centralised entities are still ultimately dependent on the DAOs approval, and they operate as transparently as possible, this is a necessary tool for the development of the DAO.

A DAO should consider having centralising points only when specialists are required to act knowledgeable and quickly, something which the Vox Populi of the DAO might struggle with. The entities to do this should be trusted members of the space of course.

Sample Voting Issue 2 - Rari Hack Reimbursement

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)

Disclosure of Conflict(s) of Interest:

Currently, I am spending most of my time working on the ParaSwap DAO. This means that anything that I will automatically abstain from any discussion that might involve DEX Aggregation, as my opinion will be biased. The positive side of this participation however is that ParaSwap is also deployed in Arbitrum, which means that the success of Arbitrum will also positively impact ParaSwap (through increased liquidity sources and volumes), as well as vice versa (by encouraging efficiency and decentralization of liquidity in the roll-up by aggregating all of these together through a single, simple to access interface).

Additionally, I also applied to be a delegate on the Optimism collective, which although is also part of the wider ethereum ecosystem it could be considered a conflict of interest. Currently, I am being allocated ~ 1k OP. In addition to this, ParaSwap has also been selected as one of the Protocol Delegate Scheme, and if necessary, the representative of ParaSwap could be a different DAO member if this is considered a major conflict of interest. I believe that the growth of any decentralized rollup on the Ethereum ecosystem is a net positive for everyone in the space, and I will do my best to lend my knowledge to bettering the entire space

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:
Goals of a DAO should be to create a decentralized, democratic platform that allows for transparent decision-making and governance without the need for a centralized authority.
DAO should create a community-driven organization that is transparent, efficient, and responsive to the needs of its members. By leveraging blockchain technology and smart contracts, a DAO can enable decentralized decision-making and governance, and promote innovation and collaboration in a way that traditional organizations cannot.

3. How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?
The key to balancing the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done is to be flexible and adaptive, and to continually assess and refine governance structures and decision-making processes based on feedback and data. By doing so, an organization can foster a culture of innovation, collaboration, and shared responsibility, while also ensuring that decisions are made efficiently and effectively.

Prioritize transparency and communication with the community. This would involve providing regular updates on the progress of the reimbursement process and explaining the reasoning behind any decisions made.

It is also important to consider the long-term impact of the decisions made. While reimbursing those affected may provide immediate relief, it could also set a precedent for future hacks and potentially impact the sustainability of the protocol. Conversely, not reimbursing those affected may damage the reputation of the protocol and community trust.

• Public Goods funding

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:

Public Goods are notoriously difficult to fund, yet more often than not, they provide enormous aid to all. Web 3.0 (crypto, or whatever else you’d like to call this space) is the one place where we can transcend our geography and help be a part of something larger and more impactful than any single person could hope to be by themselves.
Similar to OP (don’t lynch me), we should have a dedicated process for “doing as much good for as many people as possible”. There are a number of ways to set this up, but primarily by leveraging the power of quadratic voting and amplifying this mechanism to distribute the maximal good for the maximum amount of people in the fairest way possible.
It is easy to get caught up in the tunnel vision of Web 3, yet the majority of the time the greatest innovations are in the real world. Developing a roadmap to marry some of these ‘outside’ impactful solutions to the power of transparency, immutability, & ownership (via web 3) will be my top priority.

Sample Voting Issue 1:
Issue Overview 71
• 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 a 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?

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

  1. Ensure that allocations are based of LONG-TERM commitments (sustainable activity based actions that are designed to promote long term use cases)
    **2) In this case; either reduce the seats (3/7), to 2, and make sure that a total of 5 (2/3 majority) are needed to change any structural matters. **
    3) Expand the Oversight committee to 5 seats, giving them 2, and splitting up the last 3. Ensure that a 60% majority (3/5) need to agree.

  1. **Self-negligence- no reimbursement **

    3. An insurance fund can be set up; users opting to pay into it (i.e., similar to royalties paid to NFT artists) will be eligible, pro-rata, to the maximum reimbursement possible. **
    4. There should be a concept of FDIC style insurance:
    ** Users with less than X amount in their accounts should be made whole. This protects users who don’t have significant funds, and for whom the loss would be catastrophic. (i.e., scanning all addresses associated with a wallet. If the total amount of crypto held by Y individual is less than X amount, and was concentrated in this one protocol, should have max priority when reimbursing the community)

  • NFT development on Arbitrum
  • Gaming development on Arbitrum

I have been using Arbitrum since Professor Patten, and the team moved TreasureDao over in the fall of 2021, and never did I care or want an airdrop. The pain of fees and speed on L1 is what made me move to L2, and the culture of Arbitrum got me to stay.

Sample Voting Issue 1:
1, I am against too much much control
2. Adjust the proposal to have more seats and diversify those seats across multiple people and organizations. Remove the title of Supreme Being from Nic Carter on the proposal. I get that he is an intelligent guy, and this title is likely a joke, but for newcomers, this would scream that he is not open to others’ opinions and rub people the wrong way.
3. Having a larger, more diverse group of individuals required to vote would allow you to get things done and showcase that many minds were involved in this decision.

Sample Voting Issue 2:
I participated in the TRIBE/FEI launch, and I believe many mistakes were made. However, a vote is a vote, and I would stick with the first vote, full reimbursement, because that is what the voters selected first. We can’t just keep creating proposals until we get our way.

Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest:

Most interested in supporting NFT development on Arbitrum

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:
Personally not a huge advocate on aggressive liquidity mining as the purpose of a DAO. I don’t believe it fosters true organic growth and can advocate for farming.

Overall goals for the DAO as it pertains to NFT infrastructure and development would be to usher in a new wave of liquidity into Arbitrum via partnerships with new/upcoming NFT mints. I believe DAO’s in general, specifically DAO’s for L2 protocols have lacked a broader knowledge of the NFT community and have mainly focused on farming rewards etc.

I have participated in the NFT ecosystem since January of 2021, starting on Nifty Gateway and then moving on chain in April of 2021, throughout my 2 years here I have seen so many missed opportunities with L2’s lack of focus on the NFT ecosystem, and I believe Arbitrum could be a massive player in NFT’s due to it’s low transaction fees and the fact that it lies parallel to ETH.

I believe that the DAO should be using funds to offer grants to numerous NFT projects within reason with the goal of acquiring and on-boarding new users to the L2. Currently the Arbitrum NFT ecosystem is one of the stronger L2 NFT ecosystems, but it has a long way to go in order to compete with ETH L1. I believe with the right delegates and the right talent Arbitrum could compete with the Solana NFT ecosystem.

Sample Voting Issue 2:
For - Seeing as 95% of the vote was for this, It is quite clear that there would be some reputational damage to the DAO if people were to vote against this issue. It was also of no fault to the user and in typical business practices, a business will make the user whole and burden the cost of replacement as a sunk cost. Voting against this would potentially harm a no-fault user, which would cause backlash and lack of confidence in the DAO.

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:

Our Vision

Voluntary commitment

Since the name of DAO is “Autonomous Decentralization”, there is no specific authority. In the “company”, the “CEO” makes decisions and gives instructions to the “employees”. In “DAO”, there is no “CEO” in the first place. Of course, there is no concept of “employee” either. In DAOs, the pyramid structure is basically negated. The premise of working at DAO is that “everyone actively demonstrates his/her special abilities and contributes to the project”. You are always a “proposer” and a “contributor”, and the DAO needs your advice and contributions. It can be said that in order to work in DAO, your project and your interests need to have a high degree of fit. Your contribution is maximized when “what you can/want to do” and “what the DAO should do” overlap. If you work for a DAO, no one will give you directions. If you can contribute a lot, you will be recognized as a “core contributor” and will be rewarded and honored.

Regardless of age, gender or nationality, pay for performance and participate anonymously

In the past, when working at a company, it was necessary to verify the identity of a person, but at DAOs, this common sense is outdated. When you work for the DAO, you are not required to provide more personal information than is necessary. Because DAOs are anonymous, they are also paid per contribution. Regardless of your age, gender or nationality, what matters is your contribution to the DAO. Prehistoric worker spirits, such as “work earlier than others, show loyalty” and “be loyal to your boss” are completely a thing of the past. Welcome to a flat, pay-for-performance society.

Rewards are tokens

Last but not least, the price of the contribution is the “project issued token”. If you work for a company, we will “receive fiat currency by bank transfer”. “Receive tokens in a cryptocurrency wallet” is common sense when working at DAOs. Accepting fiat currency as a reward can be considered a special case. Tokens earned as rewards can be sold on the spot or held and managed as-is. If you think your project will grow, you may not sell it but buy more. These tokens are usually so-called “governance (voting) tokens”. The more you contribute, the more governance tokens you earn. You can reflect your intentions and interests in important decisions on your project. Using rewards as tokens to create some kind of gameplay is also an innovation of DAO.

Sample Voting Issue 1 - UniSwap/Flipside Bounty

How would you vote?
For
Voting is the key to democracy, and how to effectively distribute power to everyone is worth exploring.

How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) are decentralized in nature, meaning they do not have a central authority. However, this can lead to challenges when it comes to decision making and performing actions.

The first step in addressing this tradeoff is to analyze the organization’s goals, structure, and community. It is important to understand how decentralized the organization should be in order to achieve its objectives. A good balance between centralization and decentralization is crucial.

One way to ensure that the organization is well managed without compromising its decentralized nature is to establish smart contracts. Smart contracts are self-executing sets of codes that enable the organization to function autonomously. These contracts can be designed to enable voting and other forms of decision-making by stakeholders within the organization.

Another strategy is to establish clear guidelines and protocols for decision-making and operations. This could include selecting or electing a group of stakeholders who make decisions on behalf of the organization, or a consensus-based decision-making approach.

Ultimately, the key to maintaining a successful DAO is to strike a balance between centralization and decentralization. The core purpose of a DAO is to enable its members to work together collaboratively towards a common goal. Striking a balance between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done is necessary to achieve this purpose.

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

Diversity of opinions and participants should be the main objective of a DAO, if a small group centralizes power, the name DAO is only an aggregate.

Something that can help is to predefine in the beginning the creation of committees and delimit the members it should have at the expense of increasing diversity against personal interests.

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

It is a bad reference to the DAOs, the more decentralized the more difficult it is to agree, but I feel that the committees or delegates fulfill that vital function of representing the voice of many in order to optimize the governance processes.

Sample Voting Issue 2:

It depends entirely where the reimbursement would come from. If this were a case of introducing a self-executable on-chain transfer block on the hacked amount and reminting into the damaged parties’ accounts, I would vote yes. If the tokenholders and other network participants were to pay for this, no. Socializing losses across a large number of people is not acceptable when it is clear that very small circles of people are responsible for both insecure code and stealing the money.

Areas of interest:

  • Public Goods funding
  • DeFi & NFT development on Arbitrum

My stance on overall goals for the DAO:

The goal of the DAO in liquidity mining should be to create a sustainable and efficient network that benefits all users. This means that the rewards program should be designed in a way that encourages long-term participation and doesn’t create a “pump and dump” scenario where users only provide liquidity for the rewards and then withdraw their funds once the rewards dry up.

The DAO should also prioritize fairness in its rewards distribution. This means that the rewards should be distributed based on each user’s contribution to the network rather than simply the amount of liquidity they provide.

Overall, the perfect network like Arbitrum should aim to strike a balance between incentivizing users to provide liquidity and creating a sustainable and fair rewards program that benefits all participants. The DAO should prioritize the long-term health of the network over short-term gains and work towards creating a decentralized and efficient system that can compete with traditional financial systems.

Sample Voting Issue 1:

As a delegate, I would oppose the current Uniswap proposal. Although I recognize that bounties can be a valuable tool for drawing new users to the platform, I am concerned about the extent of power and control that the proposal would give to Flipside crypto. In my opinion, this arrangement could pave the way for the centralization of authority and could place Flipside at an unfair advantage.

Sample Voting Issue 2:

As a delegate, I am of the opinion that the reimbursement of victims of the Rari hack is a complex matter that requires careful consideration and a nuanced approach. Although I sympathize with those impacted by the hack, it’s important to carefully evaluate the potential pros and cons of reimbursing them.

In my perspective, the decision to reimburse parties affected by a hack should consider several factors, such as the severity of the attack, its impact on the community, and the feasibility of reimbursement. Depending on the specific case, full reimbursement may be justified if the attack was particularly harmful or a result of a fundamental issue within the platform. However, in other instances, it may not be practical or suitable to provide full reimbursement.

Overall, I believe that each reimbursement decision should be made on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the unique circumstances of the situation. As a delegate, my goal would be to ensure that the interests of all community members are represented impartially and that decisions are made transparently and responsibly.

Overall, the goals of a DAO and the approach to liquidity mining should be aligned with the needs and priorities of its community.

1.for
2.Nothing more
3.The tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done is a common challenge for any organization, including DAOs. On one hand, centralization of authority can provide clear leadership and decision-making, leading to faster execution and more efficient use of resources.

I am most interested in
DeFi development on Arbitrum
NFT development on Arbitrum

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO.
Arbitrum is the most power layer 2 scaling solution which can be used to diversify the participation
we should be building a DAO to take the power from small group and allocate it to large group for better distribution of power.

Sample Voting Issue 1

  1. Against
  2. No amendments, just cancel it altogether.
  3. The solution is equal diversification

Sample Voting Issue 2:
It depends entirely where the reimbursement would come from. If this were a case of introducing a self-executable on-chain transfer block on the hacked amount and reminting into the damaged parties’ accounts, I would vote yes. If the tokenholders and other network participants were to pay for this, no. Socializing losses across a large number of people is not acceptable when it is clear that very small circles of people are responsible for both insecure code and stealing the money.

  • English, Hindi.

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:

  • I do care about liquidity mining. people to use X means X is useable. We aggressively build stuff that people NEED instead.

Sample Voting Issue 1:

  1. Against
  2. No amendments, just cancel it altogether.
  3. The solution is reputational avatars, which solves most if not all DAO participation and token-weight voting problems.

I believe that the DAO should be democratic and decentralized, with a culture that promotes, where everyone has the right to express and be heard.

Sample Voting Issue 1:
Against, it will be a difficulty, but I believe that “Account Abstraction” can come up with new solutions

Sample Voting Issue 2:
No refund, security has a determining factor which is time.

Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:

  1. How would you vote?
    Against

  2. What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?
    Change it to 1/7 on the allocation committee. 3/7 is essentially ‘the maximum amount below majority’. For a Data Analytics company who has introduced bounties this doesn’t make sense.

  3. How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?
    Larger scale projects and important features don’t need to be rapid, they need to be well discussed and accurate. Day to day minutia can be delegated for agility.

Sample Voting Issue 2:
Outside the flipping of the vote, how would you choose to handle this situation?
2. No Reimbursement

Please elaborate on what instances you believe it is right to refund and which are not.
In most cases a refund is not appropriate. We are in an experimental arena where the due diligence should be born to the user. Protocols should move into on-chain insurance to protect from exploits if they desire.

  • Improving Governance participation
  • Supporting Infrastructure

I rarely use this network. It will be interesting to find out the main differences from other networks.

  1. Vote against
  2. To submit a question for discussion and search for a solution in the interior of the community, you can use a competition with awards for the best solution.
  3. Using the TAO with an enlightened vote but without delving into bureaucracy.
