In a recent development, the Arbitrum Short-term Incentive Program’s voting phase ended on October 13th. As a result, Arbitrum DAO is set to invest 50 million ARB, equivalent to 41 million USD, into 29 selected projects. Among them, a significant portion, 44% of the allocated funds, is earmarked for Perpetual DEX exchanges, led by prominent names like GMX, MUX Protocol, Vertex Protocol, and Perennial Finance. On the other hand, DEX exchanges receive 15% of the total funding, featuring notable projects such as Camelot, Kyber Network, Trader Joe, and Balancer.

Despite the complete allocation of ARB in the first round, the program can continue if a proposed budget expansion is approved. There is currently a proposal to provide an additional 10 to 30 million ARB to kickstart round two.

As previously reported by AZC News in late September, Arbitrum DAO decided to invest 50 million ARB (41 million USD) in projects operating within their ecosystem. At that time, a total of 105 different projects applied for sponsorship.
