The Arbitrum Foundation released a set of new Arbitrum Improvement Proposals (AIPs) on April 5, aimed at governing the network more effectively after the chaos that ensued after their initial unsuccessful attempt.
Arbitrum, an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling solution, aims to enhance the blockchain network’s functionality. The latest proposals, AIP-1.1 and AIP-1.2, have been posted on the Arbitrum community forum and will be open for feedback for at least 72 hours before a week-long snapshot vote.
AIP-1.1 addresses several areas, such as smart contract lockup schedules, spending, budget, and transparency, while AIP-1.2 intends to amend the current founding documents by lowering the proposal threshold from 5 million ARB tokens to 1 million ARB tokens for increased governance accessibility.
3/10 Three new documents have been posted:
– Transparency report about the Foundation’s initial setup
– AIP-1.1: Lockup, Budget and Transparency
– AIP-1.2: Amendments to current founding documents— Arbitrum (💙,🧡) (@arbitrum) April 5, 2023
Arbitrum Foundation had previously announced on April 2 that AIP-1 was unlikely to be approved due to negative community feedback. The foundation confirmed via a tweet on April 5 that the Arbitrum DAO had reached a consensus against its initial proposal, AIP-1, after receiving objections from token-holders who believed it covered too many subjects and opposed the allocation of approximately $1 billion worth of ARB tokens to the foundation.
Moreover, the foundation issued a tweet retracting their earlier statement and clarified that they had no plans to take control of the tokens. They also stated they would not move the remaining 700 million tokens in the Administrative Budget Wallet until the DAO approves an acceptable budget and a secure smart contract lockup schedule.
