Tally Votes

Constitutional AIP - Security Council Improvement Proposal
Vote: For
We fully support these measures to the Security Council process which will improve security.

ArbitrumDAO Contribution; Safeguarding Software Developers’ Rights
Vote: For
Both Defi EF and Coin Center have made contributions to the web3 litigation. This funding is sending a signal that Arbitrum stands alongside of those who defend privacy and the right to utilize blockchain technology, which could potentially foster a robust community organically.

Set up a Sub-Committee for the Security Services Subsidy Fund
Vote: Obstain

Proposal [Non-Constitutional]: Set up a Sub-Committee for the Security Services Subsidy Fund

MUX Protocol Votes abstain. We echo with most of the posts here that adding an additional layer of hierarchy should be very cautious. Meanwhile, the ADPC has the capacity to manage the security fund but they may have their own focus. After seeing the ADPC’s response, we are more sure that the ADPC will take over this responsibility.

Election of STEP Program Manager
Vote: 50% for steakhouse.financial, 50% for avantgarde.finance

We believe that all four candidates have the capability of managing the STEP program. Our decisions are based on our own experiences and understandings.
Both of steakhouse and avantgarde have extensive experience with DAOs, comprehensive analytics and monitoring. Their experiences with top defi protocols make them a good fit for the position

[NON-CONSTITUTIONAL] Pilot Phase: Arbitrum Ventures Initiative
Vote: For [ No IRL Event ]

[Non-Constitutional] Pilot Phase: Arbitrum Venture Initiative

Mux Protocol Voted for the version without an IRL event. Thanks for the team that put efforts in the proposal. We can see the differentiation with other on-going programs like M&A and GCP. DAO does need an investment arm to boost the the Arbitrum economy. However, we suggest that before moving to the Tally, the team could elaborate more on 1. budget break down 2. more detailed deliverables that can define the next phase of the AVI.

AIP: BOLD - permissionless validation for Arbitrum
Vote: For

BOLD makes Arbitrum more secure technically by allowing anyone to dispute.

AIP: Funds to bootstrap the first BoLD validator - Operational cost sentiment
Vote: For

BOLD is vital for the decentralization and security of arbitrum and important to bootstrap it.

Pilot Stage – Treasury Backed Vaults research and development
Vote: Against

This is an interesting idea, but it needs profound research from all perspectives, including economic, compliance, operation, and potential risks. Such initiative should be prudent before moving forward. Also, it makes more sense to have a general idea of the amount of the asset that can be borrowed first, and then make an action plan.

With that being said, we appreciate the work and effort made by the author and love to see how this initiative evolves afterward.

Kwenta x Perennial: Arbitrum Onboarding Incentives
Vote: For

One-off application is supposed to be more strict compared to dedicated programs. We followed the discussion and saw that the application has been qualitatively and quantitatively adjusted based on community feedback.
As an ecosystem builder and a delegate, we believe it’s good to introduce competitive players from other ecosystems to potentially expand user base for arbitrum.

ArbitrumHub Evolution: The Next Step in Streamlining Information Access and Raising Awareness for Arbitrum DAO
Vote: Against

Agree that Arbitrum hub is a great site, just that 1) we don’t see a strong motivation from DAO perspective to support with half a million budget. Current communication channels already have the most attention. Some of the items mentioned in the proposal might be redundant considering the current channels. 2) The way the proposal structured is not in the best way to execute if it’s necessary to build another information channel. We suggest to propose phase by phase instead of the current structure, adding more on the deliverables, KPIs etc.
