Arbitrum Gaming Catalyst Program proposal has been approved & executed by the Arbitrum DAO today.
Seen real projects raise less in total to build an entire new protocol than this proposal earmarks for team salaries alone.
I used 8.4M delegated ARB to vote no on the $250m ARB grant for the 3 year Gaming Catalyst Program.
I’m sorry I did not have time to participate in the conversation earlier than this, but I believe it is too much money to spend on a niche category.

Everything you’ve written is factually correct, Emin.
It’s also entirely unnecessary to write, never mind press “post”.
The fact that you’re personally defending a third party, (supposedly) unaffiliated project launched on your *permissionless* network, that speaks volumes.
Let's be clear: $3m is a lot of money *for a regular person*. Heck, $3k is a lot of money for a regular person, and specifically, even $30 was a lot of money for me when I was a long-time graduate student.
But we're talking about a highly successful project here. Stars Arena
