Understanding priority sectors for Metis ecosystem growth in 2026

Hello Metis community,
I’ve been spending time reading through the recent governance proposals and ecosystem discussions. It’s impressive to see the structured approach toward funding and community validation.
I’m curious to understand the broader strategic direction:
Which sectors are currently considered highest priority for ecosystem expansion (DeFi, AI, gaming, infrastructure, etc.)?
How does governance evaluate long-term sustainability when approving grants?
Are there measurable KPIs the DAO tracks post-approval to assess ecosystem impact?
I’m looking to better understand how governance decisions align with long-term network growth.
Looking forward to learning from contributors here.
