Request to Increase the Stylus Sprint Committee’s Budget

Proposals
37

We appreciate the potential of Stylus and recognize its importance for Arbitrum’s ecosystem. However, we have some questions about the proposed 80% budget increase from the original 5m ARB allocation.

  1. What about these specific projects are so critical that they necessitate a budget increase?

  2. What internal discussions occurred within the committee to justify this request for a budget increase? Was there a formal vote before a decision to request additional funds was reached? If so, we want to know the breakdown of committee members’ positions and how they voted.

  3. Has the committee considered what the success metrics (beyond milestone delivery) will be for the projects considered for the additional fund requested or the program as a whole and its impact on Stylus? How are we defining success for Arbitrum?

While we fundamentally support investing in Stylus’s growth, we believe clarity of what transpired leading up to this proposal is crucial for the DAO to make an informed decision. The jump from 5m to 9m ARB is significant and should be provided with a clear and detailed justification.
