Snapshot Votes of May 2024:
Voted AGAINST
I believe the size of the requested grant is still too big considering the size of the project. This is in line with my stated value of focus.
Voted FOR
The success of the Denver GovHack is enough to trust the team to reiterate and deliver a great event in Brussels. The price is high, but that’s events for you and the team has said that extra cash will go towards future events.
Voted FOR
After the substantial reduction in grant ask, I believe this proposal is now requesting a decent amount of ARB.
Voted FOR
Council feedback has been taken into account by the team, I now believe this proposal is ready to go!
Voted FOR
Council feedback has been taken into account and I like their product, I think it goes in an interesting direction and could become big over time.
Voted FOR
A lower ask and a clearer proposal, it’s a yes from me! Still quite a large ask but it’s conditional on TVL growth and if it does reach $25M then this is a great deal for the DAO.
Voted FOR
This is a lot of money for a product that doesn’t yet have traction on Arbitrum but the grant should help with that and this is attracting top quality builders to the ecosystem - a yes from me!
Voted FOR
The reduction in grant ask is significant, and this would provide competition in a key field for the Arbitrum DAO.
Voted FOR
Despite the significant grant ask and the unproven project, I think this grant presents a risky bet for the DAO that could turn out great. In general, I would’ve said no, but in this context of competition between layer 2s for projects it seems like a decent bet to me.
Voted FOR
Good team with a good track record, the feedback from the Council was seriously considered and the proposal looks a lot better, happy to vote yes!
Voted AGAINST
I think the arguments put forward by the council in the first rejection of this application still apply, the grant reduction is small and I don’t think all concerns were mitigated. No from me.
Voted FOR
Good opportunity to attract an OG team to Arbitrum and keep them here, where there’s more liquidity, DeFi users, and incentives. All things considered, this is a very interesting proposition for the DAO.
Voted FOR
Incredible opportunity, great testament from Michael to put up his own money on this - I’m very excited to see Curve change DeFi on Arbitrum! What a great sign.
Voted FOR
I thought the 1.2M ARB grant requested was crazy, the name of Sushi doesn’t carry the weight it did in 2020. 600k is still major, this is certain, but maybe more in line with the amount of TVL they could bring over. Let’s see! Congrats on the grant council on that one btw, they’re earning their salaries and then some.
Voted FOR
Significant reduction in grant ask and integration of the council budget seem sufficient in this updated proposal.
Voted FOR
DeDaub has passed the necessary checks to make sure they’re the right firm to take care of the security advisor role. The budget is also very reasonable.
Voted FOR
Big fan of this proposal, I believe that the DAO is ready to move on to more active roles in the projects it funds and I hope that one day part of the grant process sorts of morphs into a more active role through this program!
Voted FOR:
#1 MS+Report
#2 MS
#3 Against
#4 Abstain
Very worthwile service that comes at a small cost to the DAO but could prevent major headache down the road, easy yes from me!
Voted FOR
Yes please let’s streamline this process! I think there are too many pairs of eyes that have to look at individual small decisions and I’m afraid that governance fatigue will set in quickly.
Voted FOR
Really good opportunity to attract more high quality builders to the network! Very happy to see it.
