Annual Report | Arbitrum DAO | 2024
Arbitrum DAO Expenditure
The Arbitrum DAO has committed (and plans to continue to commit) a material portion of its treasury towards funding growth within the Arbitrum ecosystem - these have been labeled as Grant Outflows. This report divided Grant Outflows across 5 major categories:
Arbitrum Foundation
The Arbitrum Foundation is a Cayman Islands foundation company. Funds sent to the Foundation are de-recognised from the DAO's Treasury once they are deposited into the Foundation's wallet. Note the initial ARB750M was sent via the airdrop event and did not flow out of the DAO treasury.
Long term programs, committees or groups funded by and supporting the effective functioning of the Arbitrum DAO. Provide services to and are approved and funded directly by the DAO (not via a Grants Program). Funds in multisig wallets are treated as DAO funds until they are sent to protocols for subsequent distribution to users.

Funds for users in the Arbitrum ecosystem distributed to them via protocols built on Arbitrum. Used to directly incentivise network growth on Arbitrum. Funds in multisig wallets are treated as DAO funds until they are sent to protocols for subsequent distribution to users.
One off funding/grants for external service providers or protocols to deliver specific work within a stated remit. Proposal must have been approved directly through on-chain governance. Funds in multisig wallets are treated as spent funds when sent to the service provider or protocol.
