We voted Deploy without incentives: We are in favor of this deployment as with most and think that deployng without incentives for the time being is the best course of action being that the chain just launched and there is minimal traction.
We voted For: Similar to our prior reasoning, we’re excited to see something get started and off the ground for delegates and will revisit in a couple of months.
We voted: $1m to $250k in order, Do Not Fund last: Given the potential future collaborations with Arbitrum who has shown the ability and interest in funding projects, this is a great way to further increase our synergies. Uniswap is the top trusted and most active DEX on Arbitrum and there are a lot of advantages to us working together closer in the future.
We voted For: We voted for the on chain vote with the $750k option that won the snapshot, in line with our snapshot reasoning.
We voted $250k: Gnosis has shown a relatively decent level of product market fit and we think there could be substantial improvements in TVL and activity on Uniswap with these incentives there. $250k is in line with DAO soft consensus and past rewards for similar chains.
Edit: We voted Abstain: After chatting with the OKX Chain team, they have decided to postpone this vote for incentives until they launch their liquidity mining incentives initiative, when they might be able to provide matching incentives.
We voted Arbitrum, Base: This proposal by StableLab is well timed and for a very reasonable price, will help determine the effectiveness of the Incentives so far allocated to those chains. These two chains are the top priority in our eyes and no matter the third, these two should definitely be considered.
We vote Yes, activate additional tiers: We see no major issues with doing this and will allow Uniswap to be more competitive on Base, hopefully taking some market share back from aerodrome.
Edit: We have voted similarly in the revised version of this vote.
We vote Yes: Following the conclusion of the first cycle of delegate rewards, the increased participation from the candidates combined with more consistent communication was a great addition and something definitely worth revisiting.
We voted Do Not Sponsor: This was a bit tricky but our ultimate decision came down to the seemingly lack or strong support in the forums and a hard time figuring out the direct benefit to Uniswap. We’ve seen this proposal around in other DAOs and it seems like some have sponsored and help while others haven’t.
We voted Renew UAC: As contributors over the last couple of seasons, and as part of the team drafting the renewal proposal, we believe it was at a level ready for final snapshot review. Thanks to the community for their continued trust in this committee.
We voted Approved Rebalance: Due to budgets being approved in $ terms and the accounting being done in $, we think it makes sense to rebalance a relatively small amount ot ensure our incentives and operations continue as prior planned.
We voted Both (create an extra 16th spot): Thanks to @Tane and @Argonaut for sharing their opinions on the forums and community call this week. Knowing our intentions and belief around how a vote shouldn’t be rushed to be submitted, we think the tiebreaker if needed of who’s been a more active community member makes the most sense. However, hearing the ambiguity and reasoning from @Argonaut’s side, we are rather strongly in favor of both teams being part of the program due to how close the outcome was. We’re here to incentivize more teams to participate and this a step in that direction that is logical.
We voted Equal votes to everyone: Being on the UAC, we think it’s best to effectively abstain on this vote. It really exciting to see all of the new qualified applicants and best of luck to everyone!
We voted For: We appreciate the approach Lisk took on this one, offering to allocate $250k of LSK and $1m of POL directly to the DAO for the counter $375k of matched incentives. This seems reasonable and in line to prior deployments; we are in favor.
We voted In Support: We’ve experienced the growth the AG team has had at Compound first handedly and think that this is a great opportunity for the DAO to have a more formalized BD process. Additionally, we’ve always wanted to ramp up the MetaGov team’s grant hunting and so this was a great way for us to get involved on a related piece.
We voted For: As we stated in the forums, we are excited to see this; taking a step back, the increased prevalence and use of Tally is impressive but not at all surprising. It seems like the go to wording used whenever we or anyone we know proposes a vote on Uni. Gasless voting would be nice, and we’re interested in more regarding optimistic governance and the role of a council. Since that isn’t something Uni has done yet, would be interested in seeing how this could play out, especially with some other DAOs seemingly implementing it pretty well.
We voted For: Voting in line with our prior snapshot vote. Everything we mentioned above still applies and we look forward to the product that they are able to bring to Uni in the coming days.
We voted For: Thanks to the team here for hearing our team’s suggestions and comments during the RFC period for this discussion. We think having these principles collectively agreed to in the DAO should hopefully clear up any ambiguous vases in the future and ultimately be a strong signal of alignment with the ecosystem.
