I have voted **AGAINST** this proposal, you can read my rationale in my [delegation thread](https://gov.uniswap.org/t/pepo-delegate-platform/24896/7):

> [@PEPO Delegate Platform](https://gov.uniswap.org/t/pepo-delegate-platform/24896/7):
>
> Proposal: [[TEMP CHECK] Metal L2: Bridging TradFi and DeFi Through Uniswap V3](https://snapshot.box/#/s:uniswapgovernance.eth/proposal/0x1b31cc6ab6b8ceb3ea3ada7684d08debc20d8a3b29fd94363223892264ab937d)
> 
> After reviewing the Metal DAO’s proposal and the feedback from other delegates, I am voting **AGAINST** the proposal.
> 
> ### Value Proposition:
> 
> - From Metal:
> - Uniswap deployment on Metal’s L2 (Superchain)
> - 250k MTL for Protocol Owned Liquidity in Uniswap V3
> - 250k MTL for incentives in Uniswap V3
> 
> - From Uniswap:
> - $250k for incentives in Uniswap V3
> - $20k for Merkl integration
> 
> ### Main Concerns:
> 
> - Lack of adoption
> 
> It’s always great to see opportunities to expand Uniswap’s reach and offer incentives on new, up-and-coming chains. But we also need to stick to the quality and values we want for the Uniswap ecosystem. Metal DAO has made a bold move asking for UNI incentives for their early chain launch. While I respect their enthusiasm to bring us onboard, there seems to be a lack of consideration in requesting incentives equivalent to their current TVL.
> 
> I’m open to revisiting a proposal from them in the future, but only if they can show some solid adoption and traction in the market first.
