Sample Voting Issue 1:

1. How would you vote?
   Against
2. What amendments would you make to the proposal if any?

• Reduce the overall grant.
• Ask the Uniswap community a list of potential candidates for this kind of grants.
• Impose a stricter framework regarding how the funds could be spent by the grantee.
• Vest the grant over 12mo and give an upfront funding representing 30% of the total grant.

3. How would you approach the tradeoff between centralization of authority and the ability to get things done?
   Initially, a certain level of centralization might be required for swift decision-making and promoting development. However, as the platform evolves and attracts a robust community, moving towards a more decentralized governance structure becomes crucial. This gradual shift towards decentralization grants the community a say in the decision-making process and guarantees a variety of viewpoints. Achieving this balance ensures efficient decision-making while upholding the foundational principles of decentralization, resulting in a resilient and adaptable platform.

Sample Voting Issue 2:
No Reimbursement. As we saw with the ending of the Rari project, a DAO can’t be an insurance fund and at the same time the project’s treasury. Liquidity is a huge obstacle to accomplish that and every user was clearly warned that there might be high risk to use their platform. Everyone should take their responsibilities and don’t assume someone will save them if something breaks.
