Arbitrum will ban 3 projects from future DAO programs for misusing grants.
-
@goodentrylabs sent ~143k ARB to ineligible users, with suspected team self-farming too
-
@limitlessdefi sold 75k ARB for USDC and bridged it to... Base!
-
@APX_Finance had ~240k ARB flagged across unreturned funds, late distributions and suspected self-farming.
Funny, that APX actually 'merged with Aster DEX', basically leaving to BNB.
Grants are tough businesses: DAOs don't give funds -> builders might go elsewhere.
Give funds -> risk of being extracted.
