We voted For: We’ve interacted with the SEAL team across various DAOs and know they are a strong and competent team. This proposal with a whitehat bounty makes sense and we think is valuable if the protocol were to ever reach that level of loss.
We voted For: We are in favor of the $UNI Incentives as Celo has already promised to deploy millions of incentives to Uniswap pools. This sets a good precedent and for a tenured and OG chain, this makes a lot of sense for us.
We voted Against: This was a pretty tough decision and we don’t have strong opinions either way here. We appreciate the incentives from Metal for Uniswap and makes us at least consider the proposal. We think ideally, we would like more of a Metal:UNI ratio than proposed, and given how the chain has very minimal non-native TVL, we are in favor of waiting for this.
We voted Allow UAC Surplus Spending: We think this makes sense given the timeliness of some incentive opportunities. Note, team members sit on the UAC and UEII.
We voted $250k Incentive Match: Sonic, formerly Fantom, will be super exciting to watch over the next few months. We are excited to see Uniswap deployed on their chain upon launch and think the $500k match is reasonable and definitely worth coincentives.
We voted Yes: While not perfect, we tried to make this the best of all the opinions expressed through conversations and on the forums for this upcoming cycle. At the end of the day, we think this is a reasonable increase in requirements to be part of the new active set of delegates and that the everything makes sense. Thanks to the rest of the team that spearheaded discussions and work to set this up.
We voted Yes: This proposal is pretty straight forward and we think the incentives for v4 and Unichain are going to be needed to see some kickstart in growth and adoption. Overall, team has delivered well in past and see no reason to doubt this time.
We voted Abstain: Overall, we’re in supportive of the proposal, but think that 1: This proposal snapshot is quite rushed and deserves some more time in RFC, and 2: A lot of the concerns we highlighted/heard highlighted to the team at UniDay Govswap event in Denver didn’t happen and concessions weren’t made, pretty much all regarding UF accountability to the DAO. Overall, we understand this is their choice and might not be a dealbreaker, but would be nice to see some edits before an on chain vote.
We voted For: Voting in line with our snapshot support. As mentioned, we think this is a reasonable increase in requirements to be part of the new active set of delegates and that the everything makes sense.
We voted For $250k: This is a promising chain with no big contentions on the forums and follow up concerns. Wintermute brought up some good points that we think were addressed decently well. Overall, the sheer amount of incentives ($4.2m over the course of the 6 months), combined with their funding of Oku shows that they are very focused on Uniswap and these co-incentives makes sense.
We voted For: After the temperature check vote, we were a little hesitant and had wished there were a few points that could be changed before the final vote. However, over the last few weeks, the UF has reached out many times and we appreciate their willingness to work with us and the UAC on many of the feedback we’ve given them. This will be a continuous process going forward and looking forward to incorporating as much feedback as we can from the commnity to the UF.
We voted For: As mentioned prior, we think this proposal is pretty straight forward and we think the incentives for v4 and Unichain are going to be needed to see the kickstart in growth and adoption.
We voted Yes: This Treasury Delegation Round 2 did a pretty great job at incorporating feedback from DAO members and we think should allow for a new diverse set of delegates to come into the voting arena. The specific amounts make sense and we are in favor of the DAO voted in objective criteria selection for the top tier extra 1M VP.
We voted For $375k: BoB has established itself as a prominent OP L2 and this 2:1 incentives match is very reasonable. The team has been very easy to work with and we think will be trusted in carrying out their promise diligently.
We voted For: We think it makes sense for the UF to have the ability to deploy v4 contracts on behalf of the DAO and this blanket exemption should make things substantially more efficient.
We voted For: Voting in line with our snapshot support. As mentioned, we think this is a reasonable ask for incentives on a promising and active chain.
We voted For: Voting in line with our snapshot support. Believe the UF should be grants the blanket exemption here for deploying v4 on behalf of the DAO
We voted Renew UAC: S3 was the most productive version of the UAC so far and we were honored to work with a very strong team. This S4 continues the work and adjusts budget and mandate accordingly with recent expectations and scope. Thanks again to the community for their trust on this.
We voted: Approve Rebalance: As UNI price has fallen substantially the last few months, we think it makes sense to approve a rebalance as most of the DAO budgets were voted in on a $ basis and should be priced in $ upon execution of payments.
We voted Abstain: We were in support of the first version, but a second version was run after there were some substantial concerns. We were in the opinion that more delegation should be introduced before other natural incentivization mechanisms get implemented, but understand delegates’ concerns on the contrary. Overall, however, the reason we voted Abstain is that this proposal is very similar to the prior vote that was “soft turned down,” and don’t think the slight changes have changed anything substantial.
We voted For: We think the Oku team has done a really good job in shipping products and think that this v4 integration will be critical to have as a separate v4 front end for the DAO. The budget request is very reasonable and we are confident they will hit their proposed timelines and deliverables.
We voted For & Linea, zkSync, Unichain: We thought the first iteration of the Forse product was very insightful and this second instance should be similar. Budget and request are very reasonable as well. For the chain selection, we think there should be substantial focus on zkSync and Linear, and certainly Unichain, however we understand the situation there.
We voted For: The GFX Team has amended some of the concerns from prior delegates and we think the wording and motivation here make a lot of sense. We are in favor in line with our Snapshot vote for this initiative.
We voted Equally for all: This is effectively abstaining, as we are members of the UAC S4. Thanks to everyone that applied and we look forward to next season!
We voted For: Similar reasoning of support to prior. We understand the concerns and think that the current changes addressing it make it more favorable than prior.
We voted Against: We think that something like this would make a lot of sense, however, the current proposal still needs some work. There is a good chunk of suggestions and comments that we think should be implemented/discussed more before going to a vote, namely concerns around the costs, use/need of certain roles and efficiency of the platform as a whole. The discussions went stale for about a month, and we thought the only changes of ~5% budget reduction wasn’t sufficient.
We voted For: We had quite a few comments and questions regarding this proposal, and think that overall, it’s at a good place, almost ready for on chain. Some things need to fleshed out more. However, directionally, we aligned with the intentions and plan. After speaking with the team irl in GovSwap Berlin, we believe it was worthy of a yes snapshot vote.
We voted Approve $150k of Coincentives: We are in favor of this trial. The 2:1 ratio is reasonable in our eyes, and think the proposal includes some interesting distribution plans that would be interseting to try.
We voted For: We believe last season’s delegate rewards structure went rather well. This season, a few adjustments to the template and other criteria that aligns delegates more such as the 1000 UNI are further steps in the right direction we believe.
