The proposition allocates 225M ARB tokens to be dispersed over a period of three years.

The plan was first presented in March and approved on June 7 with a vote of more than 75%.

The Ethereum rollup-based layer-2 network Arbitrumā€™s development team, the Arbitrum Foundation, has pledged a large portion of its resources to fostering the gaming industryā€™s growth inside its ecosystem.

The proposition allocates 225 million Arbitrum (ARB) tokens, with a market value of around $215 million, to be dispersed over a period of three years via the recently formed Gaming Catalyst Program (GCP).

Boosting Gaming Ecosystem

The programā€™s goal is to promote growth and involvement in the gaming community by quickly increasing the awareness and use of Arbitrum, Orbit, and Stylus within the gaming community.

The plan was first presented in March and finally approved on June 7 with a vote of more than 75% of the electorate in favor. To promote game creation on its blockchain, the program had planned to approach the Arbitrum DAO for approval to set aside 200 million ARB over two years.

Treasure DAO, a gaming-focused group, L2Beat, and Wintermute were notable proponents of the plan. Blockworks Research and Camelot DAO opposed, but the plan was ultimately approved. Moreover, Treasure DAO expressed their approval of the initiative in a joyful post on the social media site X, writing, ā€œArbitrum is the home of gaming ā€” letā€™s make some magic happen.ā€
