We are in FAVOUR of adopting a Code of Conduct to improve the operations of the Arbitrum DAO.
However, we share similar concerns than other delegates have highlighted.
In particular, we believe more information needs to be presented in terms of the clear procedures for monitoring and accountability, as well as “hard enforcement” (e.g., how to enforce a COI for a delegate, an organism, or a framework to proceed in case of malicious behavior). This is necessary to avoid situations where proposals have been approved and there is no designated entity to monitor - while anyone can bring a violation forward we believe it is important the incentives are aligned and we ensure the creation of an overall framework on this part as well.
Furthermore, there may be an issue around the re-delegation of voting power away from bad actors (who might have infringed the code of conduct or COI). Perhaps this could be analysed within the context of stARB and other delegator incentive mechanisms to link delegation and staking.
