The following reflects the views of the Lampros Labs DAO governance team, composed of Chain\_L (@Blueweb), @Euphoria, and Hirangi Pandya (@Nyx), based on our combined research, analysis, and ideation. We are voting 100% for **funding with 1.73M USDC + Council**. The ARDC addresses key areas of risk, security, and research for the DAO, which are crucial for its continued success. We’ve closely followed the research and security reports, and they have guided many of our decisions and votes. At this time, we don’t see any other alternative that can fulfill the role of the ARDC as effectively. We hope to see more long-term reports focused on the growth and direction of the DAO. Additionally, more clarity on who can request work, how requests are made, and the rationale behind approvals would be beneficial for the community. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/non-constitutional-arbitrum-research-and-development-collective-term-2/26922)._
