Thanks for posting this and really love the ongoing discussions. Few questions from this end: > [@ArbitrumVentures](#): > > Currently, there is an [opportunity gap in capital allocation](https://www.decentralised.co/p/bugs-in-the-system) that Arbitrum can leverage. Concentrating on highly targeted investment programs will create a better environment for Arbitrum-native projects, while still supporting cross-chain products and attracting external capital. Is there a contingency plan here if the market conditions shift? We understand there is an opportunity gap but we would be more comfortable supporting this if there are defining conditions under which investments are reevaluated or liquidated if market conditions shift. Also, regarding Farstar: > [@ArbitrumVentures](#): > > Farstar agrees to 1-year exclusivity with Arbitrum upon passing this proposal. During this time Farstar will not work with other clients in the Web3 space. Has this been documented with both parties signing? Also, is there a plan to manage any disagreement that may arise between stakeholders and the Farstar team during the one-year partnership period? Besides, we share similar sentiments with @gauntlet and would prefer the vendor produced in-house. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/directional-temperature-check-on-arbitrum-ventures-setup/27668)._
