As we continue to experience the depth of the bear market, it is increasingly important for Arbitrum to retain the mindshare of key ecosystem contributors and incentivize builders to build on top of it. Grants program is a great way to attract high-quality builders and grow the ecosystem more quickly. This proposal details the benefit to all the stakeholders involved - token holders, builders and DAO members
The proposed structure will lead to the following outcomes:
The program structure focuses on having community members as domain allocators. Arbitrum DAO will be required to set a budget of $1M to be disbursed by 4 domain allocators and for committee compensation. Each domain allocator will be elected by the community. Interested community members can self-nominate themselves to be considered for becoming a domain allocator. The domain allocator for each domain will be selected via a community-wide Snapshot vote. Domain allocators will run their domain on-chain for full transparency. The data and performance across key metrics will be visible to the community in order to evaluate the domain allocator’s performance.
Steps to Implement
Arbitrum Grants Committee
The program will consist of

We propose Tally’s Zodiac Governor Module for security purposes, furthermore, a Grants SAFE with a 4/6 multi-sig will be set up between the program manager and four domain allocators, one member from the DAO. We will then have four SAFEs for each of the domains with a 3/4 multi-sig setup between the program manager, the specific domain allocator, one more domain allocator, and one member from the DAO.
Questbook ARB DAO GRANTS acts as a security layer for grants multisig, empowering ARB holders to control multisig when needed.
Currently, we have four signers on the Safe, and the Safe is 3/4 until the domain allocators are elected by the community. As a result, we will have three temporary signers:
Here’s the multi-sig address: 0xB7c1551BBEB47Eb86266153df5F9D7dA47F08308
We have identified the following domains based on our thorough research and the feedback from the Arbitrum team and community.

The following will be the roles and responsibilities of the selected domain allocators.

Grants Program: a. Source good-quality proposals from developer communities b. Sign the transactions for the approved projects c. Ensure a quick turnaround time for proposers regarding their proposal decision d. Coordinate between the domain allocators to ensure that the workload is evenly distributed and take their feedback consistently
Domain Allocator:
The grant budget will be $1M with $200k for each domain. The committee compensation will be $200K for 4 domain allocators and one program manager for 6 months. Note that this is the proposed budget. All unused funds from every domain and committee compensation will be returned to the treasury. The compensation for Domain Allocators and Program Managers has been factored into this overall proposed budget. Please find below its details.

P.S
We are inviting applications for all domain allocator roles. Once this proposal passes through Tally, we will create a separate forum post for the nomination of domain allocators. Delegates and community members can self-nominate themselves under the post for two weeks. After the nomination period, a snapshot vote will be conducted.

We will start implementing the grants program once this proposal is passed.

The Questbook team has a good track record of delivering grant programs in other DAOs and we are confident that they can deliver good results for the arbitrum DAO as well
My thoughts on the proposal: https://twitter.com/maxlomu/status/1685772749820530689
I believe this framework to be well thought out. It is in the DAO's best interest to have an established framework that creates sustainable growth via grants.
We have worked with Questbook in the past and believe they provide great grants tooling and framework that will benefit the Arbitrum DAO
