Arbitrum Fast Feed Proposal Would Route 97% Of Revenue To DAO Treasury
Arbitrum governance is weighing a Fast Feed proposal to sell authenticated, low-latency data for Arbitrum One. Subscribers would get sequencer ordering details after finalization, but the feed is designed to be ordering-neutral and not grant reordering or frontrunning rights. The key economic feature is the revenue split: 97% of subscription revenue would go to the Arbitrum DAO Treasury and 3% to the Arbitrum Developer Guild. The proposal is being viewed as both a data product and a protocol revenue experiment. It reflects a broader Layer 2 push to find sustainable income beyond token incentives and grants. Supporters may see it as a way to monetize infrastructure demand without raising costs for regular users. The main governance concerns are whether the service creates MEV-related advantages, whether access is fair, and whether enough users will pay to make it meaningful.
