5 Polls Closing on September 12, 2024
Fund the Stylus Sprint
Summary: This poll asks ARB holders if they support 5,000,000 ARB in grants to teams building with Stylus, which was recently rolled out.
Recommendation: Vote No. We believe Stylus is a promising product, but its entire purpose is to make it easier for developers to write smart contracts on Arbitrum One and Arbitrum Nova. If it requires subsidies to convince developers to use Stylus over existing practices, then it has failed to live up to its promise, which was to require less effort for developers.
Synthetix LTIP Grant Extension Request
Summary: This poll asks ARB holders if they support a 2-month extension for Synthetix to utilize its LTIPP grant.
Recommendation: Vote No. As a member of the LTIPP committee, we do not support grant extensions on a one-off basis, because it deprives other grantees from similar opportunities.
Enhancing Multichain Governance: Upgrading RARI Governance Token on Arbitrum
Summary: This poll asks ARB holders to assist RARI DAO in migrating governance to Arbitrum from Ethereum, which requires a permissioned function for the gateway router that Arbitrum governance controls.
Recommendation: Vote Yes. This should probably have a streamlined process to grant these requests since it might become commonplace.
[Pyth Network] Arbitrum LTIPP Extension Request
Summary: This poll asks ARB holders if they support a 12-week extension for Pyth to utilize its LTIPP grant.
Recommendation: Vote No. As a member of the LTIPP committee, we do not support grant extensions on a one-off basis, because it deprives other grantees from similar opportunities.
ArbitrumDAO Procurement Committee Phase II
Summary: This poll asks ARB holders if they support a 6-month extension of the ADPC, which includes a budget of $414,000 in ARB.
Recommendation: Vote No. We do not support simultaneously extending a budget and re-election. These should be separate votes.
