Please see my comment in regards to both financial proposals and a vote change here:

> Howdy all, Thank you for the community feedback, I think there has been some valid points raised in terms of proving out the concept and taking this in steps. As long as we hold Eth in the treasury, we can take this approach slow and get data for any future decisions. I will be moving my votes to vote 25% (85 eth) paired with Mana into the MANA LP, and 10% (34 eth) towards rocket pool. I hope to reach a solid consensus on both, as they are intended to be complimentary to each others success. A…

Liquid pooled staking is a newer contract technology than liquidity pools - while my own confidence is strong, in order to be as objective as possible based on the feedback, I believe we should start and prove out this objective using 10% of the available Eth (34). We must get consensus in order to ensure these proposals are a success in their second stage.

As this strategy, and the security of liquid staking grows, we can reevaluate based on our objective returns and experience. If safer or upgraded self-custody liquid staking becomes a reality, we can migrate or upgrade our portfolio based on technical risk management, however I do believe that what has been brought in this proposal is absolutely the safest first step towards self sustainability.

Most importantly, I believe that both the LP and the Eth staking is crucial in conjunction, and that a 2.5:1 (25%/10%) ratio is a well balanced proof of concept we can grow long term.
