Recently, @PlutusDAO_io has proposed "ARB staking" to improve the utility of $ARB.
~ 90% of voters have voted Yes ✅
And If the proposal pass, Arbitrum DAO treasury will need to fund the staking APY with 1.75% of the total ARB token supply 🎫.
This could lead to as much as a 137% staking APY for $ARB .
However, is this proposal beneficial for Arbitrum in the long term🤔?
Some quick thought on the proposal👇:
---------------------------------------------------------
1️⃣ A TLDR of the proposal:
🔹 Plutus has proposed a staking mechanism aimed at incentivizing long-term holders and adding utility to the ARB token.
🔹 Users can lock up their ARB for up to 365 days, or choose to exit early with a penalty ranging from 0-60%.
This penalty gets redistributed to other ARB stakers based on their stake weight, and locking do not affect a staker voting right.
🔹 To bring this to reality, the proposal requests a certain percentage of the total ARB token supply from ARB DAO to fund the staking APY in the next 12 months, which are:
1️⃣ Fund with 1.75% of total ARB supply
2️⃣ Fund with 1.5%
3️⃣ Fund with 1.25%,
4️⃣ Fund with 1%,
5️⃣ No funding at all
By the time of writing, ~90% have chosen options 1.
🔹 Option 1 has an estimated staking APR of 137.25% when 10% of ARB is locked and decreases to 13.73% when 100% of ARB is locked.

---------------------------------------------------------
2️⃣ My tiny brain thoughts:
✅
First, I agree that staking could indeed improve the utility of ARB by being more than a governance token.
More than that, staking can lock up a portion of the circulating supply🔒and rewarding lockers with an attractive APY funded by the @arbitrum DAO treasury.
✅
Second, looking beyond, this proposal could even serve as a foundation for future revenue-sharing models, such as sharing sequencer fees or DAO-earned interest, and so forth💰.
❌
However, my primary concern with this proposal is the potential for inflation in the long run, as $ARB from the treasury would be distributed to ARB stakers as rewards, leading to unnecessary selling pressure in the future.
❌
Moreover, the 1.75% of the ARB supply could potentially be put to better use.
For example, it could fund another round of incentives to attract more projects and developers, or reward existing projects that have been contributing to Arbitrum's development,
Rather than merely paying users to hold their tokens for 12 months.
👇
Given these concerns and the lack of benefits to the ARB ecosystem as a whole, I would disagree with the proposal.
Im happy to have your thoughts on this one tho.

Also weath & hardwork doesn't correlate, but being a lazy slacker guarantees you never be rich, Don't let the work-smart 4 hour work per week lifestyle brainwash you, I never met a super rich person who is lazy and try to skip work
The 00s generation are extremely lazy slackers & incapable, always wanted to do less and get more in return or not doing anything and expecting something in return. Gone are the days of hardworking mens
If you are hardworking, you have an advantage over most people already
A fren just asked me about the preparatory steps I'd take for upcoming bull market... Here's what I said:
Preparations for me are really honing in on my mistakes in the last cycle and avoiding them.
7 things I did wrong: 🧵👇
Something is happening in the San Francisco real estate market.
Take a look at this house listed for sale.
In 2015, the owner purchased the property for $1.4 million, 27% ABOVE the asking price.
Now, 8 years later, the property is listed for $1.1 million, 22% BELOW what the owner paid for it.
This homeowner now has "negative equity" which is a growing trending impact 1.2 MILLION homeowners in the US.
Could this be the beginning of a bubble bursting?
👋 Excuse me Sir/Madam, do you have a moment to talk about @Memecoin? $MEME is literally a meme coin. No utility. No roadmap. No promises. No expectation of financial return. Just 100% memes. 😉
I don't understand why many big accounts tell people this is their last cycle.
We're slowly transitioning from a highly unregulated market to a mature one.
This is when the real fun truly begins, in my eyes.
Projects will hire more.
Companies will search for Web3 talents.
Global awareness will hit new peak levels.
I respect those who are tired of experiencing multiple cycles as it is a really energy-drainer practice.
But at the same time, I don't understand why quitting before a complete flourishing.
Isn't the thing we've been waiting for since day one?
Zero will be here during the upcoming bull cycle, during the next bear, and in the next decade.

On my honor, I promise that I will do my best to do my duty to my own bag, and to farm #MEMEPOINTS at all times.
It ain’t much, but it’s honest work. 🧑🌾
Once you reach a certain age, you'll realize is much better and meaningful to put in the effort to truly work your way towards a financially stable life
Rather than faking a rich lifestyle where your social media life is better than your real life, real life you're full of shit
If you are poor like me, do whatever it takes to succeed financially, go though lonely and boring days with nothing but work
No alcohol, no cigarettes, no clubs, no bar, no girls
Even if u can afford, delay gratification on luxury purchases, no new cars till you're truly rich
If you made some money, reserve it for investment only

Social media can make you feel like your behind
Everywhere you look everyone is just killin it
And you think to yourself...damn what's wrong with me how am I so behind
Truth is most people on here are full of garbage
Even lots of these prop firm traders you see killin it as well
Many have inside deals with these firms
Just like offshore brokers who give out marketing accounts...yall dont think prop does the same thing?
They do
And they will flex those selective payouts but don't show all the ones they lost beforehand
And mt4 as we all know can be faked very easily
So don't feel bad... most people are not doing well
Sure not everyone is fake there are lots of people who use prop firms and mt4 who are really bringing in massive gains
And you should be inspired by those people!
But there are for sure more bad people than good people in this game
So just be careful and keep your head up
I've said it before...if you can manage to make in the range of 2-6% a month average
You are world class and aint many out here even coming close to being on your level
Keep that in mind
Keep grinding
