STIP Bridge Challenges Rationale: 1. MUX: For, although they posted their application late, they re-adjusted and lowered their ask. I believe this time their metrics will be better. 2. Stargate: For, I believe it will positively impact TVL bridged over to Arbitrum 3. Solv: For, relatively small ask, it’s worth exploring how these incentives can impact their growth. 4. Sanko Games: For, one of the most innovative and organic growth projects on Arbitrum. They deserve growth support. 5. Tide: Against, I don’t believe incentivising will bring meaningful results 6. KyberSwap: Against, I don’t believe incentivising will bring meaningful results 7. Gains: For, I believe gains represents a big part of Arbitrum and should continue to be incentivised. 8. Boost: Against, I don’t believe incentivising will bring meaningful results + sybil 9. Thales: For, their previous STIP was a success, its worth continuing to support. 10. Savvy: For, relatively small ask, the concerns raised don’t seem worth not having this pass. 11. Stake DAO: Against, I don’t believe incentivising will bring meaningful results. Previous metrics quite concerning 12. Furucombo: Against, poor usage of previous STIP funds + wash trading concerns 13. Socket Bridge: Against, unclear handling of funds during previous STIP, unclear results and why this time it would be different. 14. Angle: Against, poor results during first STIP and no meaningful change to address them 15. OpenOcean: Against, agree with ARDC comments 16. Thetanuts Finance: For, good performance and team addressed farming concerns. 17. Dolomite: For, don’t personally see a problem with the incentives method used. oARB is a powerful tool. 18. Umami: For, same as Dolomite. ---

I find myself in agreement with most points raised by JoJo. On the expense side, costs are definitely high for what’s being proposed and for that reason reporting and accountability is even more important. 12 month terms are also abnormal within the DAO and would love to see this revised. Overall this is a positive change, but I hope this is not the final form of the proposal that makes it to Tally. ---

Both teams have a proven track record and although the ask is pretty high, its a good bet to onboard more funds and activity over to Arbitrum. As Jojo and Blockworks mentioned, perhaps the fee rebate should be reduced to 75% to be in line with other similar running programs and promote a more equal playing ground for all platforms on the fees side. I’m eager to see how user retention will look like post-incentives period. Good luck! ---

This is a well put together proposal and the budget is not too high. I have the same concerns raised by the other comments above on the fact that there are already quite a few similar initiatives (specifically m&a) and there is no rush to keep opening new ones before we see the results, but given the relatively low cost it is still worth exploring this pilot phase. I do hope to see the proposal be refined before going on tally and the above delegate’s comments be addressed. ---
