[Non-Constitutional] [RFC] Arbitrum D.A.O. (Domain Allocator Offerings) Grant Program - Season 3

The following reflects the views of L2BEAT’s governance team, composed of @krst and @Sinkas. It’s based on their combined research, fact-checking, and ideation.

We’re voting FOR the proposal.

When we cast our vote during temp-check, we raised 5 points that we’d like to see addressed before being comfortable voting in favor of the proposal onchain. We appreciate the amount of time and effort @Jojo put into addressing our feedback both on the forums and in private, as well as that of other delegates.

Although we voted to continue the program with just the original four domains, we’re happy to see the DAO approving Max Lomu to lead the Orbit domain and believe he’ll do good work as its domain allocator. We’re also pleased to see Questbook’s reduced cost relative to Snapshot.

We’d like to point out one thing, even though it’s not a deal-breaker. As things are, Jojo is to receive a retroactive compensation of 24,000 ARB (to be delegated for at least 180 days) after feedback that his compensation as PM was lower than that of DAs. We understand that this is meant to mitigate the difference in the compensation between the PM and DAs, and it’s not necessarily compensation for drafting the proposal.
