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.”

1 mn Ether Withdrawn Since Ethereum’s Shanghai Hard Fork

The amount of ether withdrawn since Ethereum’s Shanghai hard fork has surpassed one million coins.

The Shanghai hard fork — part of an upgrade package called Shapella — went live just before 6:30 p.m. EDT on April 12 at block height 6209536. It allowed Ethereum stakers to withdraw their ether rewards for the first time since Beacon-chain deposits began in late 2020.

The total amount of withdrawn ether currently stands at 1.02 million coins, according to data from token.unlocks.
