Vote: For
Rationale: Establishing The Watchdog program strengthens the DAO’s integrity by creating incentives for the community to surface fund misappropriation, which has historically gone unchecked. This initiative fosters accountability, helps deter malicious behavior, and ultimately protects DAO capital.

Vote: For
Rationale: Enabling BoLD is a major milestone toward decentralizing Arbitrum One through permissionless validation, while maintaining strong security guarantees.
Vote: For
Rationale: We support this proposal because with an experienced team and clear KPIs, this initiative directly aligns with the DAO’s goals of ecosystem development and community-led growth.
Vote: For
Rationale: StableLab Supports the QB grants program in Arbitrum. The first 2 seasons have proven to be successful and we are excited to see what they fund in season 3.
Vote: #1 Deploy Both Strategies Abstain #4 Deploy Nothing #2 Only Deploy ARB Strategy #3 Only Deploy Stable Strategy
Rationale: We support this proposal and prioritize deploying both the Stablecoin and ARB strategies (#1). While we appreciate the TMC’s cautious approach, we believe deploying a portion of the DAO’s ARB holdings into on-chain strategies complements the stablecoin allocation and helps reduce idle asset exposure.
Vote: For deploy capital
Rationale: We support this proposal as it strikes a strong balance between conservative yield generation and ecosystem growth by deploying 7,500 ETH across trusted protocols like Lido, Aave, Fluid, and Camelot.
Vote: For
Rationale: We support this proposal because it improves the user experience and functionality of the Arbitrum Bridge. This ensures users can seamlessly bridge stablecoins via the official UI. The contracts are already deployed, audited, and live, making this a low-risk, high-impact integration for the Arbitrum ecosystem.
Vote: For
Rationale: The Nove Fee Sweep Action efficiently consolidates 1,885 ETH in historical Nova fees into the Arbitrum DAO Treasury using modern, automated infrastructure. This action improves treasury transparency, reduces governance friction, and completes the transition to the upgraded fee routing system, strengthening the DAO’s financial operations with minimal risk.
Vote: Against
Rationale: We voted against this proposal due to concerns around cost-efficiency, unclear long-term impact, and limited evidence of effectiveness from the initial pilot.
Vote: For
Rationale: This initiative not only enhances on-chain security and reduces risk across the Arbitrum ecosystem, but it also promotes responsible scaling, supports developer adoption, and encourages innovation on Arbitrum chains.
Vote: For
Rationale: This program builds on past learnings from STIP and LTIPP and aims to go beyond onchain incentives by targeting users at top of funnel level. Focus on iteration, reporting and analysis are a plus to gather valuable feedback for the DAO.
Vote: For
Rationale: The suggested ARB strategies are too high on the risk/rewards spectrum and not worth pursuing.
Vote: For
Rationale: The expected yield from the stablecoin strategies is very attractive given current market conditions, while diversifying the Treasury by selling ARB into stables guarantees yield generation and operational versatility.
Vote: For
Rationale: We think these four candidates are a strong addition to the AOT for the following reasons:
Jana: She has worked in the interface between Rari Foundation, Rari DAO and Rarible, guiding all of them and ensuring alignment. She is also familiar with the Arbitrum ecosystem and her contributions are remarkable.
Frisson: An active and respected contributor for Arbitrum. Initiated great governance initiatives for Arbitrum, keeping it at the industry’s forefront.
Marc Zeller: He is an active contributor in many DAOs in the space and with ACI has helped AAVE grow while becoming a lean and accountable organization.
Joseph: With a more technical background, he has a different profile, complementary to the rest of the candidates and his vision on Arbitrum development can bring a positive guidance to OpCo.
Vote: OpenZeppelin - 100%
Rationale: We support OpenZeppelin with all our VP to support their inclusion into the Council. OZ has a strong technical team, developed the governor contract and are respected among the community.
