We voted FOR the ArbOS 60 Elara upgrade. At TiD Research, analyzing network resilience is a core focus, and the shift to Dynamic (Multidimensional) Gas Pricing fundamentally improves how we can model and monitor network risk. By isolating resource dimensions like storage and computation, the chain becomes much more resilient to targeted demand shocks. This ensures that a spike in storage demand won’t necessarily price out pure computation transactions, which is critical for maintaining stable arbitrage and liquidation environments during high-volatility events. Furthermore, granting Offchain Labs the agility to adjust these gas targets and the minimum L2 base fee is a pragmatic approach to dynamically balancing spam prevention with capital-efficient DeFi operations.
Thank you for the detailed and transparent rationale, @TodayInDeFi!
Really appreciate the depth of reasoning across these proposals especially your nuanced stance on STEP 2.0 (highlighting both treasury diversification benefits and governance risks like reduced ARB holdings making attacks more viable) and the candid NO vote on ArbitrumHub with actionable feedback rather than just rejection.
A few thoughts from a fellow delegate’s perspective:
Your point on bundled proposals reducing governance clarity (re: BOLD + Infura Nova) is something more delegates should raise unbundled votes lower the DD burden and could actually improve quorum, as you noted.
On OpCo, the fact that even the original proposer (Entropy) shifted against it is a strong signal and your spend-control argument aligned with ARB’s price performance is a fair fiscal lens.
Curious whether TID Research has a view on how Arbitrum DAO should handle delegation concentration as the ecosystem matures especially with AF getting more involved in governance roles previously meant for OpCo.
Looking forward to continued transparency from your team. Governance needs more research-backed delegates like TID Research.

Subject: Leveraging Automated AML Scoring for the Watchdog OpCo
"I’ve been analyzing the 63% validation rate in this retrospective. It’s clear that manual oversight is reaching a bottleneck.
I am building ChainTrace v2.0, an AML simulation tool designed specifically to automate this ‘First Response.’ By aggregating global security APIs, it provides a Wallet Safety Score that could have flagged the 32 cases of legacy misuse before funds were streamed.
As the DAO transitions toward an OpCo or improved DRIP framework, I believe integrating this ‘Financial Firewall’ is the most sustainable way to protect the treasury and reduce manual workload.
