[Non-constitutional] Subsidy Fund for Security Services

Savvy DAO has voted FOR “100% for 1 cohort of 8 weeks, $2.5M fund” for the Subsidy Fund for Security Services proposal for the following compelling reasons:

  1. Focused and Manageable Scope: Allocating $2.5 million for an initial 8-week cohort allows the Arbitrum DAO Procurement Committee (ADPC) to pilot the subsidy program in a controlled, manageable environment. This targeted approach facilitates careful monitoring and assessment of the fund’s impact on project security and development within the Arbitrum ecosystem.
  2. Strategic Allocation for Maximum Impact: The decision to fund a single cohort initially ensures that resources are concentrated where they can be most effective. It allows the ADPC to optimize the subsidy distribution, ensuring that funds are awarded to projects that not only need them the most but also have the potential to provide significant returns on security investment.
  3. Evaluation and Scalability: Starting with one cohort gives the ADPC the opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of the fund’s distribution mechanisms and the performance of the funded projects. Insights gained from this initial phase can be used to fine-tune the program for future cohorts, potentially scaling the initiative based on demonstrated success and community feedback.
