Proposal: [Temp Check] Analytics Hub for Uniswap’s Revitalization and Growth Program (Snapshot)
Vote: Abstain
Rationale: We are abstaining from this vote for several reasons:
- First, the previous Force-funded project covering 4 chains (Arbitrum, Base, Blast, and Scroll) was presented only a month and a half ago in 20 March, which we believe is too early to assess whether it had the intended impact and utility for the DAO and protocol in shaping incentive policies. At this point, expanding the project’s funding without understanding the impact of the previous phase seems premature.
- Regarding the proposed chains, we only see potential value in gathering the proposed metrics on Unichain. However, we see limited value in the remaining chains since, according to DeFiLlama, they have very low DeFi TVL: Linea (rank 34), Mantle (27), Zksync (46), Sei (14), Manta (82), Moonbeam (103), and Polygon zkEVM (135).
- While we do see value in Unichain metrics, we notice a potential overlap with the dashboard that Uniswap Foundation and Gauntlet have committed to providing in relation to the recently launched incentive program:
We would like to hear the proposer’s view on this potential overlap. If no overlap exists, we may reconsider our vote during the onchain voting process to support Force for Unichain, with an adjusted cost due to the reduced scope to a single chain.
