I support this proposal. Developing monitoring infrastructure for Cow AMM and MEV Blocker should provide the team clarity on these areas.

I just moved this grant proposal to https://snapshot.org/#/s:cowgrants.eth/proposals

Please kindly check the snapshot. Particularly it is misleading that there is reference to “Core contributor Solver Engineer (Oct 2024 - Dec 2024 inclusive).” It’s fair that this is in the previous grants, but it should not be towards the header. Please kindly make sure that the grant aligns with the template.

You are able to unilaterally withdraw the snapshot (it can be deleted by the creator) - then subsequently edit it and set it up again please.

Thanks for your past work, I support this proposal in continuation.

@Sailjunkie as just mentioned by mfw78, there is indeed an error on what you posted in Snapshot, and I also think it would be better to remove this one and repost.

Hey @Sailjunkie
Your Grant didn’t reach quorum - I assume it was because it was posted just before a weekend and there is only three day voting period for the grant committee.

I would recommend to re-post today and I can amplify with the grant committee to get some eyes on it.
