Executive Summary & TLDR

This proposal intends to set up the Security Services Subsidy Fund (‘SSSF’) Sub-committee, seeking 60,000 ARB to fund the members of the SSSF Sub-committee over 1 cohort spanning 8 weeks. This will ensure that each of the 5 members to be elected will be paid 100 ARB per hour, capped at 15 hours per week. This is in line with the compensation structures of recently approved committees within Arbitrum DAO with similar workloads (e.g., LTIPP). Additionally, the SSSF Sub-committee will be tasked with administering $2.5 million worth of ARB and selecting the security service providers most deserving of a subsidy fund based on the Means Test outlined in the Subsidy Fund Proposal.
