Onboarding for DAOs is often difficult to execute and can be controversial in its ability to attract talented contributors vs. creating additional noise in an already noisy environment. After discussing Arbitrum Onboarding V2 with @RikaGoldberg, we believe this program balances bringing new contributors into the ecosystem and providing rails for continued involvement while solving existing needs.
A few of the additions to the program we like are:
- Comp based on industry standards and a detailed budget.
- The matching of top performers from the Governance Bootcamp with Protocols - serving an immediate and well-documented DAO need.
- The inclusion of social media posts to help highlight DAO activity on Farcaster/X.
Many of the DAO’s current contributors and delegates began interfacing with DAOs through similar programs. We look forward to hearing the rest of the community’s thoughts and feedback on the proposal, but we largely favor the Arbitrum Onboarding V2 proposal in its current state.
