Proposal: Safeguarding Software Developers’ Rights & the Right to Privacy
Type: Snapshot, closing Apr 24, 2024
Vote: 100% for Fund with 1,000,000 ARB each
Reasoning: Both DEF and Coin Center are performing important and highly specialized services which benefit everyone in the space. We’re happy to help work towards our shared successes, and believe that this size will make a large enough impact to help give them room to operate comfortably. One thing we will be watching for are updates to the DAO from both of these groups regarding work that has been done - while it may not be directly related to Arbitrum, we would like to know what funds have been used towards.
Proposal: Subsidy Fund for Security Services
Type: Snapshot, closing Apr 25, 2024
Vote: 50% 1 cohort of 8 weeks (2 months) for a total fund size of $2.5 million, 50% 2 cohorts of 8 weeks each (4 months) for a total fund size of $5 million
Reasoning: There are still details to be ironed out before this proposal goes to an onchain vote, but directionally we believe that a subsidy fund for protocols to ensure security would be very valuable for the ecosystem. While the ADPC is given a lot of power in this proposal, the reasoning behind it is valid. We split our vote as we were unsure whether a 2 month period would be long enough to draw all the conclusions we need but could certainly see it working in either time period.
