Hey, I should be more clear. The research did not take a full year to complete. It has taken nearly a year to get the appropriate support to push this forward. The drafted proposal made by Joseph of the ARDC was never fully completed but happy to share the doc. He has not given me permission to share it publicly. If that changes I am fine with sharing it publicly. For now I have sent you a copy to your DMs and happy to do that for anyone else.
Additionally, you stated “We’re not convinced about the budget amounts. For more clarity, which RFCs did you base this budget on?”
I made the budget for the work based on the RFC for funding an incentive working group. I am more than happy to bring this inline with Arbitrum funding standards.
