  Content: ACC Updates for Voting Cycle # 29 In voting cycle # 29 , the ACC voted “For” on the Governor Update Proposal # 3 : Enable Onchain Treasury Execution. The proposal was internally discussed among members of the ACC, and the rationale for ACC’s vote is as below: The Proposal aims to further decentralize execution of token transfer proposals, which are currently manually executed by the Foundation. After execution of this proposal, token transfer proposals can be voted and executed fully onchain without relying on Foundation. The proposed changes have completed audit and the audit report indicates that the identified issues have been addressed. The upgrade, when completed, will not result in a situation where any single entity captures or has a significant control over governance. Thus, after discussion the proposal, the onchain vote was initiated from the ACC Multisig. After achieving the required quorum among ACC members, the vote transaction was executed from the ACC multisig.

  Content: In Voting Cycle # 27 and # 28 , the ACC did not vote on any proposals, as there were no upgrade proposals that were being voted on during these voting cycles. The ACC discussed the Accelerated Decentralization Proposal For Optimism with its Delegate Members, GFX Labs representative and Foundation, and decided that at this stage, the ACC would not vote directly on the proposal. The ACC’s statement on this proposal can be found here. Accelerated Decentralization Proposal For Optimism ACC’s Statement on the Proposal for Accelerated Decentralization for Optimism On 26 th September 2024 , the Anticapture Commission (ACC) held an Internal Meeting where one of the key agenda items was the discussion on the Petition for Accelerated Decentralization for Optimism.

• Accelerated Decentralization Proposal For Optimism by ACC - No Role
  Posted on: Oct. 2, 2024, 1:15 p.m.
  Content: ACC’s Statement on the Proposal for Accelerated Decentralization for Optimism On 26 th September 2024 , the Anticapture Commission (ACC) held an Internal Meeting where one of the key agenda items was the discussion on the Petition for Accelerated Decentralization for Optimism. Along with the Delegate members of the ACC, we also invited GFX Lab’s PaperImperium and members of the Foundation to discuss the petition. There was wide agreement among all parties that the proposal represented a step in the right direction, in pushing for the decentralization of key components of Optimism. The issues raised in the proposal were well received, and have ignited a healthy conversation within the Optimism community on our path towards decentralization. Delegates stressed a need for moving towards decentralization by ceding more power to token holders and delegates. The Foundation reaffirmed their full commitment to decentralizing the protocol and working with the community to iron out a more granular path forward. The Foundation will publish concrete proposals, which are already in audit, in the coming weeks as part of Phase 1 of the path towards decentralization. Recently, the development process has been opened up to a good extent with public specs published in repositories. This has enabled external groups, beyond OP Labs and the Foundation, to contribute to the OP Stack development process. External teams like Flashbots, are now able to propose features related to the OP Stack, and have the designs reviewed and merged into the codebase. The ACC members discussed with Foundation that there are concrete proposals for decentralization coming up in the next few Voting Cycles and gradually but surely, more control is being ceded to governance in a progressive manner. To this effect, the Petition for Accelerated Decentralization felt like a timing issue while we are all on the same path towards decentralization. As per the bicameral nature of Optimism’s Governance, one of the main mandates of the ACC is to alert the Citizen’s House if there is a possibility of capture in the Token House. However, the Citizens are not involved in this conversation that is currently before the Token House. To this effect, the ACC will seek to facilitate the role or voice of Citizens in this discussion such as creating standards for signaling proposals. Considering the Charter of the ACC, the members were in agreement that at this stage, the ACC will not vote directly on the Snapshot proposal with the voting weight delegated to the ACC multisig. There however, is no restriction on individual delegates who are part of the ACC in signaling their opinion on the proposal.

  • alexsotodigital: Hi! After reading this thread, I realize that concrete actions are already being taken to follow up on the various proposals that have been presented. Wanting to avoid repeating what more capable people have already expressed, I’ll set the topic of ‘decentralization’ aside; understanding that we are all aligned with the intention, and it’s just the details of the implementation that differ. ACC: The ACC members discussed with Foundation that there are concrete proposals for decentralization coming up in the next few Voting Cycles and gradually but surely, more control is being ceded to governance in a progressive manner. To this effect, the Petition for Accelerated Decentralization felt like a timing issue while we are all on the same path towards decentralization. And yet, I believe this conversation has highlighted a different topic: revenue opportunities for the Collective, beyond sequencing revenues. SEEDGov: The discussion on revenue opportunities for the Collective, beyond sequencing revenues (which remain unresolved), warrants deeper analysis considering the design of Superchain. Especially if we consider that the trend is for that revenue source to decrease over time. AnthiasLabs: The value proposition of the Superchain may be correct, but we, along with other delegates, continue to maintain the thesis that sequencer fees are going to 0. And I believe that coming up with possible solutions is a responsibility of the collective rather than the foundation. GFXlabs: We view the Foundation and Labs as parents to governance. Just as there is sometimes tension when a child has grown up, and the parents need time to adjust to the new dynamic, we understand it can be difficult to let go of the reins. In other words, if we continue with the analogy of parenthood, I’d say we need to demonstrate our maturity and capability by taking proactive steps in this matter, rather than waiting for someone else to solve it in the future. What do we do about it? For the sake of order, I suggest opening a new thread to focus on ‘revenue opportunities’ without diverting this one from its initial focus (which is the pace at which we should decentralize operations). I’m not aware if there are other conversations about this, but at least it wasn’t evident to me when searching the forum. I leave this post here, inviting anyone who wants to participate in a 'Collective Proposal Creation’ to brainstorm and synthesize some paths to address this concern. I hope my suggestion is appropriate. Thank you in advance for your comments in the thread.

  Content: Updates - Voting Cycle # 26 During Voting Cycle # 26 , the Commission was required to vote on the Granite Upgrade Proposal. An internal meeting was held on 22 nd Aug 2024 where the Granite Network Upgrade proposal was discussed, and it was agreed among member delegates that the Commission will vote on the Granite Network Upgrade. However, delegates expressed major reservations in the way this upgrade had been proposed. After approval by the Delegates and reaching the required quorum, on 27 th August 2024 the ACC Multisig Voted YES on the Granite Network Upgrade. The transaction can be found here: ACC Multisig TX # 15 Along with voting on the Governance Upgrade proposal, in the Internal Meeting the ACC Members also considered the Agora voting UI/UX issue from last voting cycle. A call was held with Agora team members, and Agora team had shared a demo of the new features they were rolling out to prevent voting errors from occurring again. It was decided that the Delegates would try the new upgrades to Agora, and share their feedback and if any future errors remain, the Delegates and ACC would discuss and propose specifications of changes to be required in the Agora voting module.

  Posted on: July 29, 2024, 5:54 a.m.
  Content: ACC Season 6 : Internal Operating Procedures 1 . Introduction This document outlines the Internal Operating Procedures (IOP) for the Anticapture Commission for Season 6 of Optimism Governance. It is designed to ensure alignment with the objective of the Anticapture Commission, with active participation of high context delegates, transparency, minimized governance, and clear accountability in line with the Commission’s goals and the Foundation’s guidelines. 2 . Transparent Communications 2 . 1 Contact and Accessibility Discord Channel: #acc-commission Email Address: acc@optimism.io ACC Multisig: Contract address on Optimism Etherscan 2 . 2 Landing Page The Landing Page is maintained by the Lead on Notion, serving as the Anticapture Commission Member Hub. 2 2 . 3 Communication Thread 1 The communication thread on the Optimism Governance Forum is maintained by the Lead and/or members on the forum throughout the season. 2 . 4 Meetings and Office Hours Office Hours: Optional, held once a Season. These can be used to discuss Members’ view on governance capture across Optimism Superchain, with one of the goals of ACC being to proactively prevent capture rather than react to capture. Internal Meetings: Held every cycle on Tuesdays. Summaries are provided to the community via the communication thread. 3 . Community Feedback The Anticapture Commission seeks to actively incorporate community feedback to achieve its objectives and enhance its operations, while retaining the discretion to prioritize the most relevant suggestions. We also seek to provide publicly accessible summaries of direct communications between members and/or with other stakeholders in the Anticapture Commission’s communication thread. 4 . 1 Cycle Alignment The Anticapture Commission’s cycles will align with the 3 -week Governance Voting Cycles of Season 6 . 4 . 2 Scheduling and Deadlines Review Period (Week 1 & 2 ) Discuss proposals that are being voted on as part of the Voting Cycle, identify the proposals that are subject to ACC exercising its voting discretion and provide feedback to approve proposals. Engage with any community concerns and feedback received during Office Hours. Voting Period (Week 3 ) When an onchain governance vote where the ACC should exercise its vote is scheduled on the Optimism Agora governance portal (vote.optimism.io), the ACC Lead will create the relevant proposals in the Anticapture Commission Snapshot Space and Gnosis Safe Multisig. An internal meeting (held every Cycle on a Tuesday) will be scheduled before the conclusion of the Voting Period. This is to remind members to vote and discuss any necessary actions to be taken. Recordings and summaries are posted in the Communication Thread after the vote. Prepare a Cycle update for the Communication Thread within 3 days after the voting period ends. Continue engaging with community concerns and feedback during Office Hours. 5 . 1 Consensus and Voting 5 . 1 . 1 Snapshot Consensus The Anticapture Commission Snapshot Space 1 will serve as the platform for Commission members to build towards a consensus on internal operation aspects, such as any Amendments to the ACC. Snapshot Space votes will be determined by a simple majority of the provided member votes. Quorum is achieved when more than 40 % of the members vote. If the commission cannot reach a consensus on a matter, the proposal will not pass and the required action cannot be taken. 5 . 1 . 2 Onchain Vote An onchain vote is executed by the Commission on identified Optimism Governance Token House proposals where the ACC should vote, by utilizing the voting weight delegated to the Anticapture Commission Multisig. This will exercise the Commission’s vote directly on the Optimism Agora proposal through an onchain vote. The members of the Anticapture Commission will approve the transaction individually on the Gnosis Multisig, and when the required quorum is achieved ( 10 / 24 ) the vote will be executed as an onchain transaction. 5 . 1 . 3 Onchain Rejection If, for any reason, a proposal that is under consideration by the Commission which has already moved to an onchain vote as per 5 . 1 . 2 has to be rescinded or re-voted, the existing multisig transaction nonce will be canceled by executing an onchain rejection. The members of the Anticapture Commission will approve the onchain rejection transaction individually on the Gnosis Multisig, and when the required quorum is achieved ( 10 / 24 ) the rejection transaction will be executed as an onchain transaction. 5 . 2 Types of Proposals for Voting The ACC should vote only on proposals that are subject to veto by the Citizens’ House, and on other proposals only if they are flagged for potential issues. 5 . 3 Process to Flag Potential Issues To flag potential issues, follow these steps: A new discussion thread is opened on the Governance Forum using the tag “acc.” and the potential concern is also flagged to the ACC through the official email address of the Commission: acc@optimism.io. Delegates, other Internal Groups and Collective Members who wish to raise potential issues can also utilize the template for “Expression of Concern” to provide additional context on their issue and why it should be flagged and voted on by the ACC. To progress towards a Snapshot vote, approval from four ACC members is required. The ACC members who wish to approve a potential issue can indicate the same to the ACC Lead. Once at least 4 members of ACC have provided their approval on a potential issue, the ACC will file a report with the Citizens’ House, and simultaneously conduct an internal vote on Snapshot. Based on the consensus of the Snapshot vote, the Anticapture Commission will cast the official vote as an onchain transaction directly on Optimism Agora using the ACC multisig. 5 . 4 Transparency in Decision-Making Public communication of Anticapture Commission Reports under review and rationale for decisions. 6 . Logistical Operations 6 . 1 Member Responsibilities Provide feedback, approval and/or coordinate authorship of any reports circulated to the Citizens’ House.

The Lead will then update the quorum on Snapshot. Their resignation will be communicated to the Collective through our Communication Thread. If the total number of ACC members falls below 10 , the Foundation will remove delegation. 6 . 5 KYC All members will need to KYC to vote as a member of the Anticapture Commission. 6 . 6 Vote Notification Mechanism When a vote, concern or a proposal that requires the Commission’s deliberation is brought before the Commission, the members of the Commission are notified in the following manner: When the ACC is tagged on the Optimism Governance forum and a concern is emailed to the official ACC inbox, the Lead will document the concern and bring it to the other Members of the Commission by flagging it in the ACC Internal Telegram group. When an Onchain Safe Vote is created for the ACC, the Lead will plan on scheduling at least a 5 -business-day period before the vote finalizes, giving Members of the Commission ample time to cast their vote. However, in instances where an urgent vote is required, the Lead may use their discretion in having a shorter voting window. When a Snapshot Vote or Safe Vote requiring the votes of ACC members is created, all members will be informed by tagging them in the ACC Internal Telegram group. This is the first notification for a vote. If an Optimism Governance proposal or vote is about to close without the ACC’s vote, Members who have not yet voted will be contacted via DM to cast their vote 1 day prior to the closing of the Governance proposal. This process will also be followed in case urgent approvals are required for any pending ACC vote, while the governance proposal is set to close imminently. 7 .

  Content: Updates - Special Voting Cycle # 23 b During Special Voting Cycle 23 b, we voted “for” on “Upgrade Proposal # 9 : Fjord Network Upgrade.” Our Internal Meeting was brief, and you can watch it here. The Lead from Season 5 shared some recommendations for the lead for Season 6 and encouraged members to apply, offering assistance with the onboarding process. Recommendations mentioned: Migration of Snapshot from Mainnet to Optimism IOP expected updates: Extending voting windows/forms of notification for votes taking place Member & Lead responsibilities Application to Retro Funding 6 : How it could be structured with a points-based distribution for contributions not considered in Retro Rewards for Season 5 , such as attendance at Office Hours and internal meetings, plus votes that were not considered, such as votes on modifications to the IOP and votes occurring during the reflection period. This is illustrative only and can be modified at any time after receiving member feedback or a proposal from the new lead. You can check it here with the member records from all season. Add a new role for Season 6 : Ops (with Retro Funding incentives) Thank you to all members who participated in this experiment during Season 5 . This is the last update from Season 5 .
