This is Bryan responding on behalf of Other Internet.
We’re in support of this proposal.
In the past these types of unconditional grants from the treasury have received feedback requesting that more details are provided as to how funds are specifically being spent, and how the exchange of UNI for USDC will be conducted. While Nomic did a great job explaining the value proposition of their suite of DevEx tools, it would be nice if they could respond with these additional details.
Nonetheless we are supportive of idea. We have confidence that Nomic has intentions to spend/exchange UNI responsibly. $5M worth of UNI is a drop in the bucket for the treasury. As an initiative framed as growing/sustaining ethereum public goods, we need to view this proposal and others like it as an easy opportunity to mobilize stagnant capital, not a budgeting exercise.
