Security Council Elections Cohort A Members

We voted Uniswap Foundation (as nominated by eek637), Agora (as nominated by kent), Jepsen, ethernaut, ryscheng, troy: These 6 are who we believe are the most qualified for this Security Cohort A. They are composed of members with strong applications that we helped nominate as well as Optimism Juggernauts that we’re sure will continue to do great work.

Rolling Mission Requests

We voted For: It makes sense to accept grants on a rolling basis and review applicants as they receive them until the grant funding runs out.

Rolling Mission Requests: Voting Cycle 27

We voted Experimentation of Infrastructure Subsidies, Targeted extension of Superfest, Optimism Full Financial Audit: The experimentation of infrastructure subsidies seems to be a widely encouraged initiative and we are in support as well. The extension of Superfest for targeted protocols is also nice and we think deserves to be revisited. Finally, we’ve had some concerns and confusion around different aspects of the DAO and think the financial audit is well needed.

Rolling Mission Requests: Voting Cycle 28

We voted Increase Prevalence of Non-USD/EURO Stablecoins: We are in favor of this mission request and think this specific topic makes sense. Seeing as there were also no other inbounds this cycle, we are in preference of this over no approvals.

Season 6: Standard Rollup Charter Ratification

We voted For: We are in favor of the specific rollup charter ratification. The Standard Rollup and this ratification applies the principles of the Law of Chains to the specific context of Standard rollups, and we are in favor of the wording and message here.

Governor Update Proposal #3: Enable Onchain Treasury Execution

We voted For: We are in favor of this proposal and the steps it takes in further decentralizing the control of the token and DAO to the community. We are in favor of allowing OP token transfer proposals to be executed automatically on chain without relying on the Optimism Foundation, assuming more responsibility for the DAO.

Onchain Treasury Transfer Test

We voted For: We are looking forward to S7 and are in support of this test transfer to the new Milestones and Metrics Council.

Onchain Treasury Transfer Cancellation Test

We voted For: Similar reasoning as the initial transfer test, this validates the foundation’s emergency cancellation mechanism.

Decision Market Mission [Onchain]

We voted For: We would have liked some more discussion around this and think there are still a few kinks to be worked out, but overall, think that this experiment is not too costly and could be very interesting to see.

Grants Council Mission [Onchain]
Season 7: Intent Ratification

We voted For & For: We are in favor of the 10M OP from the governance fund to grant grants advancing this season’s Intent: Interoperability. $250m in cross chain asset transfers seems like a lofty but reasonable goal and we are excited to help partake in this mission.

Season 7: Security Council Operating Budget [Onchain]
Season 7: Developer Advisory Board Operating Budget
Season 7: Grants Council Operating Budget

We voted For & For & For: All three budgets are reasonable and have shown great work over the last few seasons.

Code of Conduct Council Dissolution Proposal

We voted For: The reasons to dissolve here make sense and we are in favor of winding the CoCC down.

Season 7: Milestones and Metrics Council Operating Budget

We voted Abstain: Our team submitted this proposal so we are abstaining.

Season 7: Anticapture Commission Amendment

We voted For: Interesting that this commission is now going through governance. We think the last few seasons went well and are looking to renew this season.

Upgrade Proposal #11: Holocene Network Upgrade

We voted For: This network upgrade is at a good point and we are happy to see these upgrades come to fruition.

Maintenance Upgrade: L1 Pectra Readiness
Maintenance Upgrade: Absolute Prestate Updates for Isthmus Activation & Blob Preimage Fix

We are In Support for both: (Optimistically Approve) These maintenance upgrades prepare OP for the Pectra upgrade and includes a critical fix for the block preimages bug and also sets activation time for the isthmus hard fork, and are aligned with the Pectra upgrade. We are in favor.

We voted Abstain: Being the M&M lead for S5/6/7, with the intention of running again for this upcoming season, we would qualify into the “selected set” under the current proposed criteria.
