Arbitrum's new proposal calls for $2 million to fund a coalition of various analytics firms such as Trail of Bits, Gauntlet and Blockworks Research to conduct a 12-month project management audit.

For instance, Trail of Bits is poised to receive $800,000 for 32 weeks of work, while Blockworks Research is slated for $780,000 across just 13 weeks, which translates to an hourly wage of $375 for an employee.

Some users view this as an unacceptable and essentially a raid on the treasury assets. Despite significant uproar on social media, the proposal currently has the backing of 56.36% of users.
