A new governance advisory firm, Entropy Advisors, has been launched to support the Arbitrum DAO. Founded by industry veterans Matt Fiebach and Sam Martin, Entropy Advisors will focus on streamlining the DAO’s operations and tackling challenges like decision-making, member alignment, and attracting skilled contributors.

DDA 2.0, a new initiative spearheaded by Questbook and backed by a $4 million budget approved by the DAO, is set to fuel growth within the Arbitrum ecosystem. With a focus on Arbitrum Dev Tooling, Arbitrum Gaming, Arbitrum New Protocols & Ideas, and Arbitrum Education, Community Growth & Events.

The funding cap per proposal has been increased to $50,000, enabling larger, impactful initiatives, while proposals exceeding $25,000 will undergo additional oversight from two domain allocators.

Over 50 new individuals interested in contributing to ArbitrumDAO have attended the welcome calls in the first weeks of the onboarding group’s execution. In the coming weeks, they will receive participation instructions tailored to their profiles and skills.

If you’re interested in participating, the meetings occur every Monday at 1 pm UTC and Thursday at 11 pm UTC.

You can find more details about this working group in the Arbitrum Forum.

This proposal outlines the creation of a “Multi-sig Support Service” (MSS) to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and enhance transparency.

Ask: 400,000 ARB

BOLD aims to enable permissionless validation across Arbitrum chains and enhance security by mitigating delay attacks. This protocol ensures that any single honest party can successfully defend against false claims to an Arbitrum chain’s state, marking a crucial advancement towards establishing Arbitrum as a Stage 2 Ethereum rollup.

You can also view “Uncovering BOLD & Permissionless Validation” by OffchainLabs here.

The Arbitrum Expansion Program is proposed to be expanded to enable deployments of Orbit chains on blockchains beyond just those deriving security from Ethereum. This proposal seeks community feedback on allowing Orbit chains to launch on networks like Bitcoin, Binance Smart Chain, Cosmos, among others.

This proposal seeks to streamline the handling of transaction fees on Nova by automating their transfer to the Arbitrum DAO Treasury on Arbitrum One. This system change will allow for faster, more efficient access to funds and simplify financial management within the DAO.

This proposal advocates the adoption of RIP-7212, which introduces a precompile for the secp256r1 curve, facilitating the use of account abstraction wallets that leverage passkeys and secure enclaves. The implementation of this precompile aims to significantly reduce operational costs and improve the user experience on Arbitrum One and Nova.

You can also view the recording of the Gov Call discussing the RIP-7212 and Nova Fee Router Proposals here.

The following proposals are available for voting, and we encourage all delegates to analyze and exercise their right to vote.

  • M&A for Arbitrum DAO (Snapshot)

    The Arbitrum M&A Working Group is proposing the establishment of a dedicated M&A Unit within the DAO. This unit will focus on identifying and executing merger and acquisition opportunities to strategically enhance the Arbitrum ecosystem.

    Ask: $50k ARB for Pilot Phase.
    Deadline to vote Wednesday, May 15, 2024

  • GovHack at ETH CC (Brussels) (Tally)

    Seeking $309k from the Arbitrum DAO to create an immersive three-day event prior to the conference, focusing on fostering community engagement and showcasing Arbitrum’s capabilities in decentralized governance.

    Deadline to vote Voting period begins on Saturday, May 4th.
