[Non-Constitutional] Transparency and Standardized Metrics for Orbit Chains on growthepie.xyz Allowing Data-Driven Decision Making

I really appreciate this proposal and especially how the team went to GovHack and continued progressing.

I have a few concerns.

  1. Why is this Orbit chain data so important for the DAO? I don’t understand why it is important for the DAO to have this data? Will this cause more people to switch to the Arbitrum techstack? Will it improve our Orbit chain incentive programs? Simply having “data” is not enough, it needs to go towards our business objectives.

  2. Shouldn’t this be an RFP process? There are multiple service providers who can provide this data (L2Beat, Dune Dashboards, etc) shouldn’t this be an RFP process? I would rather we spend $10K to determine the scope and validate the problem and then create an RFP process from there. An additional option is to create this in house.

I’ll note that these questions are more about a general process the DAO is currently using where we have proposals that are “self-serving” as opposed to scoping, defining and validating the requirements of the DAO and then creating an RFP process.

One option is to have someone from the community apply to a questbook for a small grant to lead this RFP process and then have GrowThePie apply to that.
