Reason: Accountability committees solves the issue of diffuse responsibility, ensuring that our budget actually translates into tangible ecosystem growth rather than just forum debates. While starting with appointed roles feels a bit centralized, prioritizing a functional, high-performing prototype is the pragmatic move we need right now to get things moving. Plus, tying influence to Staked SCR finally ensures that long-term alignment, not just noise, drives our decision-making.

Reason: The Galileo upgrade enhances Scroll's efficiency and resilience by adopting a more precise fee model and reducing prover cycle consumption by 50%. It also integrates the latest Ethereum EVM features, ensuring continued compatibility and a seamless developer experience.

Reason: Good governance needs its own R&D department. This council creates a dedicated, expert team to research and experiment with better ways to govern, which is a crucial and forward-thinking investment in the DAO's long-term health and decentralization.

Reason: This is a sensible and necessary fire drill for the DAO's financial infrastructure. Verifying that the timelock works as intended with a no-cost test is a crucial and responsible step before committing significant funds to it in the future.

Reason: We support for Avantgarde. Their proactive engagement with delegates and holistic strategy to use treasury assets to directly foster growth within the Scroll ecosystem is most compelling.

Reason: This is a well-designed and crucial program for Scroll's long-term growth and reputation. It rightly treats security as a public good, making the entire ecosystem safer for both builders and users by lowering a significant barrier to entry. The investment structure is particularly smart, as it confirms projects are committed to building on Scroll and gives the DAO potential upside. Its focus on end-to-end security moves beyond simple audits to provide the continuous support that modern projects actually need.

Reason: Tackling the core issue of incentive alignment is not just beneficial for Scroll, but for the entire ecosystem.

Reason: Establishing a dedicated council to support grassroots efforts like the Local Nodes program is a crucial step for sustainable growth. The phased, "start small" approach to onboarding members is a particularly thoughtful response to community feedback, ensuring the council's size and cost align with its actual workload.

Reason: A robust fee model is being implemented while keeping costs stable for most users.

Reason: To support grassroots innovation in Africa. This program empowers local founders to build real-world Scroll use cases, bridging DeFi and TradFi with tailored, scalable solutions across East Africa.

Reason: This pilot taps into Mexico’s growing Web3 talent, using an innovative, mobile approach to onboard builders to Scroll, with clear metrics and strong alignment to ecosystem goals.

Reason: Because the EGC creates a focused, accountable structure to drive ecosystem growth, ensuring transparency, delegate involvement, and aligned funding—crucial for Scroll’s long-term sustainability and founder support.

Reason: Brazil’s large developer community, rich culture, and growing Web3 interest make it perfect for a Local Node—supporting builders, driving innovation, and expanding Scroll’s reach through strong local engagement.

Reason: This provides a practical, low-risk solution to quorum challenges, ensuring governance continuity even during delegate absences without changing thresholds or compromising decision-making integrity.

Reason: Support governance contribution recognition to fairly reward delegates, retroactively acknowledge months of effort, and establish a working group to design a sustainable, transparent compensation model that strengthens Scroll DAO engagement.
