Web3 Diaries: Arbitrum Proposal To Return 700mn 

A controversial proposal seeking the return of 700 million ARB governance tokens to Arbitrum’s DAO treasury was rejected by a massive number of votes on April 15. The improvement proposal called AIP-1.05 was introduced after the Arbitrum Foundation transferred funds without community approval in March.

The proposal was defeated by 118 million votes, representing 84% of the total votes received, while 21 million ARB tokens voted for the proposal, nearly 14.5% of the total. 

Around 2 million ARB tokens abstained. The proposal asked the foundation to return the tokens as a “symbolic gesture to demonstrate that the governance holders ultimately control the DAO, not the Arbitrum service provider nor the Foundation.”
