Please share your stance on overall goals for the DAO:

Governance of a protocol should be decentralised and representative. At DAOplomats, we are focused on developing inclusive governance models for DAOs. Our aim for Arbitrum is to be a Cosmopolitan DAO, with a thriving balance between all stakeholders. We aim to help the DAO achieve its goals by building strategies to increase governance and community participation.

Sample Voting Issue 1: Uniswap & Flipside

How would you vote?

Against

What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?

The proposal could have included a rationale for Flipside being the exclusive service provider. The Oversight Committee responsible for declaring the program successful should be independent of the parties involved. Including KPI and clear trackable metrics.

How would you approach the tradeoff between the centralisation of authority and the ability to get things done?

We preach the idea of practical decentralisation, Not everything can be decentralised or should be from day one. The idea of DAOism begins from understanding the most centralised factor which could be turned into an attack vector. Decentralised communities cannot evolve from their core stage, as the people are generally united for a common ideology but not necessarily the same mission, value, or goals. A great example is the state of Bitcoin. What’s the ideal approach? Having centralised decision-making and accountable Orgs under a decentralised organisational structure. It is important to remember that these Orgs should be open to everyone.

Sample Voting Issue 2: FEI RARI Hack Reimbursement

Outside the flipping of the vote, how would you choose to handle this situation?

Split Reimbursement

Members of DAOplomats were active during these events and voted on the proposal.

Reimbursement after a Hack is a very hard topic; generally, the protocols getting hacked may not have enough funds to cover the entire TVL and reimburse the parties involved. Defi protocols should make a clear statement about how it deals with hacks, if there are reimbursement plans etc, it’s ideal to say the situation should be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
