So i just put some extra code to my tool and make it work on proposal that still going here what i found :

@arbitrum governance or @arbitrumdao_gov is wild rn 🌶️

council members want 90k ARB each as a bonus

why? startup phase was more work than they thought

supposed to be 4 hrs/week
ended up being 10 hrs/week

now they want paid for the extra hours

here's my breakdown 👇

Can us markets stop this sell fest thing , happen every us market open

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

IS US MARKET REALLY THAT HATE OF CRYPTO?

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

FINALLY THE TOOLS NOT MAKING DUPLICATE AND SCAN FOR NEW PROPOSALS. ITS WORKING ON 3 DAO NOW (ARB,OPTIMISM AND UNISWAP)

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

Ton of work at workplace but i did some upgrade on tools, so it wont make any duplicate for the dao proposal i already hace. Sharing with you guys later

#buildwithpublice #Web3Community

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

Ughhh yesterday was chaos on the workplace will be back today😎

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

we're basically replacing:
"foundation has control"

with:
"Security Council has control + foundation has vague safety controls"

how is that decentralization? lol

also making it a VETO vote is confusing on purpose imo

vote carefully on this one fr

@OptimismGov and @Optimism trying to move governance onchain and it's kinda messy 👀

ps: proposal end Nov 12 2025

the proposal has good intentions but raises more questions than answers

thread on why i'm skeptical 🧵

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

what they want:
- move governance onchain (good!)
- give admin powers to Security Council (???)
- Foundation keeps "safety controls" (???)

what they DON'T tell you:
- who's on Security Council
- what these safety controls are
- how to reverse if it breaks
- emergency procedures

sus.

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

HEY HEY FINALLY CAN MAKE MY TOOL WORK ON OPTIMISM DAO , LIL A PAIN IN THE ASS BUT THE UGLY TOOL IS WORKING.

IM OPEN TO ANY INPUT GUYS😁😁

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

this one still live https://t.co/vKOGDHGHgh

u can still cast ur vote out

tbh i'm split on this

yeah startup work always takes longer than expected (been there)

but 90k ARB with basically no metrics showing what they did? idk man

also they're literally voting on their own raise which is kinda funny

classic dao problem: fair pay vs not opening floodgates for everyone wanting bonuses

what would you vote?

here's my breakdown 👇

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

broke down the voting options:

vote FOR if:
- you think people should get paid for extra work
- they actually delivered value
- it's from existing budget anyway
- want to keep good council members

vote AGAINST if:
- they knew what they signed up for
- 90k feels like way too much
- sets bad precedent for future bonuses
- no real proof of what they accomplished

abstain if you're still figuring it out lol

NEW PART FROM THE TOOLS LOL 😅😅

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

what they're asking for:

90,000 ARB per council member (one time payment)

it's from their existing budget tho, not new dao money

they claim:
- did way more work than planned
- had to set up everything from scratch
- hiring, compliance, all that boring startup stuff

question is: does that justify 90k ARB? 🤔

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

BACK FROM WORK!!! LETS FIX THIS SHITTY TOOLS

#buildinpublic #Dao #web3

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

Posting about my tool here open for critics and discussion

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

so arbitrum voted on paying council members more 💸

my tool's take:

current: $30k/year
proposed: $50k/year + 60k ARB tokens

their logic: "industry benchmarks"
my logic: that's a 67% raise wtf

pros:
✅ attracts better talent
✅ they oversee 200M ARB (high stakes)

cons:
❌ sets precedent for everyone wanting raises
❌ no performance metrics shown
❌ might price out community members

vote already closed but curious - would you have voted yes?

this governance stuff is wild 👀 @ArbitrumNewsDAO @arbitrumdao_gov

#Arbitrum #DAO

[LUICHEEL🍓 @LUICHEEL]

## 🎯 THE BOTTOM LINE

Delegates should weigh whether professionalizing DAO governance through competitive compensation outweighs risks of cost inflation and community exclusion. The 67% increase may be justified by industry standards, but the precedent it sets for DAO-wide compensation expectations could have far-reaching budget implications that aren't addressed in this proposal.

Increase AGV Council compensation by 67% plus ARB bonuses to match industry benchmarks.

**KEY NUMBERS**:
- Council members: $30k → $50k (+$20k)
- IC member: $80k → $100k (+$20k)
- New: 60,000 ARB bonus per member (~$50k at current prices)
- Oversees: 200M ARB deployment program
- Timeline: Next Council term only, 6-month vesting

💡 KEY INSIGHTS

- **This is really about talent competition**: The proposal reflects DAO governance maturing into professional roles that compete with traditional finance positions, but raises questions about whether DAOs should mirror corporate compensation structures
- **Power dynamics are shifting**: Higher compensation requirements may fundamentally change who can afford to participate in DAO governance, potentially excluding passionate community members in favor of professional operators
- **Benchmark gaming risk**: The selected comparisons conveniently support the desired increase, but alternative benchmarks (like other DAO roles or crypto-native positions) might tell a different story
- **Treasury allocation philosophy**: This represents a key decision point about whether DAO funds should prioritize governance professionalization versus direct ecosystem development and user acquisition

my tool is getting good at finding both sides ngl

building this is teaching me more about daos than any course could
