[ARFC] April Finance Update


title: [ARFC] April Funding Update
author: @karpatkey_TokenLogic
created: 2024-04-02


Summary

This proposal presents April’s funding update, including the following key activities:

  • Migrating holdings from v2 to v3 (Polygon and Ethereum)
  • Extending the DAO’s GHO runway to cover upcoming expenses
  • Returning RealT’s supplied WXDAI to RealT
  • Migrating AGD’s allowance to GHO

Motivation

With the upcoming extension of Merit and the funding request from Chaos Labs, this proposal will swap sufficient assets to GHO to ensure enough funds are available as required.

This proposal cancels the existing USDT Allowance to the Aave Grants DAO and replaces it with a GHO Allowance of equal size, 612.9k. This represents a continuation of transitioning to using GHO as the preferred means of covering DAO expenses.

Also within this proposal, there is the corrective action of returning 3504 RealT WXDAI sent by RealT to the Aave Gnosis Chain collector by accident. Details on the agreement with realT can be found here.

This proposal will follow the Direct-To-AIP as outlined in this proposal.

Specification

Migrating AGD’s allowance to GHO

The following Allowance is to be cancelled and replaced with GHO:

  • Cancel aUSDT Allowance
