# [ARFC] Set ACI as Emission Manager for Liquidity Mining Programs

# Author: ACI (Aave Chan Initiative)

# Date: 2024-06-06

* * *

# **Summary**

The current ARFC proposes to appoint the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) as the Emission Manager for liquidity mining programs across Aave markets. This will enable ACI to manage incentive programs funded by different partners, with the purpose of stimulating market activity and growth.

# **Motivation**

Liquidity mining programs are essential for attracting liquidity providers by offering rewards for their participation. Effective management of these programs is crucial for the sustained growth of the Aave Ecosystem. Therefore, ACI, with its extensive experience and strategic partnerships, is well-positioned to manage these emissions effectively.

A recent example is the [Long Term Incentive Program (LTIPP)](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/aave-ltipp-application-final/21741) from Arbitrum DAO, where Aave DAO will receive 750,000 ARB tokens, illustrating the benefits of coordinated emission management.

# **Specification**

1. Appointment of ACI as Emission Manager for Liquidity Mining Programs
  1. ACI will be authorized to manage Emission Programs for Liquidity Mining across Aave Markets.
  2. ACI’s multisig address will be the one receiving and distributing emissions on behalf of the DAO.

2. Appointment of ACI as coordinator with ecosystem partners, to define and implement emission strategies, managing the distribution of rewards to liquidity providers, and monitor & adjust emissions based on market performance.
3. Integration of Liquidity mining program as part of “Dolce Vita” service of the ACI at no extra cost for the DAO.

# Implementation

The ACI multisig address will be set as the emission manager via the **`setEmissionAdmin()`** method in the relevant emission manager contracts.

ACI multisig address: 0xac140648435d03f784879cd789130F22Ef588Fcd

This method will appoint the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) wallet as the emissions admin for all potential Liquidity Mining Programs.

# Disclaimer

The ACI is not presenting this ARFC on behalf of any third party and is not compensated for creating this ARFC.

# Next Steps

1. If consensus is reached on this [ARFC], escalate this proposal to the Snapshot stage.
2. If the ARFC snapshot outcome is YAE, publish an AIP vote for final confirmation and enforcement of the proposal.

Probably a stupid question but there are still ARB rewards for supplying GHO despite Phase End being two days ago. How come ? Is it a new phase ?

Due to constraints on emissions manager that make it not suitable for this program, incentives for Endless Summer Liquidity Mining on Base will be distributed through the Merit airdrop system.

Users that should have received liquidity mining incentives will be compensated according to the amount of rewards they should have received over the past week.

We apologize for any inconvenience and will update with further communication as soon as back-dated rewards are claimable for users.

To extend Lido Instance growth, the ACI will post an AIP setting the ACI\_MULTISIG as emission manager for wstETH on the Lido instance.

This is meant to kickstart a wstETH supply incentives program to prepare the ground for Liquid emode with LRTs on this instances.

Details of this program will be shared with @TokenLogic when the AIP is implemented if governance approves it.

This AIP also seek to whitelist ACI-MULTISIG for tBTC on the main instance to kickstart liquidity with this asset.
