Governance Weekly Recap

Week of December 12, 2022

Summary

Lots of proposals coming through, as usual of late. A couple of these are re-submissions of proposals that failed to meet quorum. @fig posts here with some ideas about how to address that issue.

@bgdlabs has posted an update on the status of the Aave v3 Ethereum release.

Proposals

Aave Improvement Proposals (AIPs):

  • Freeze Aave V1 (132). This has been resubmitted after failing to reach quorum.
  • Aave v2 ETH Interest Rate Curve Update (131). This proposal to amend “the ETH interest rate parameters on the Aave Ethereum v2 and v3 Liquidity Pool” was executed on December 18 after 100% voted “YAE.”
  • Set LDO, stMATIC, MaticX and SD Emission_Admin for Polygon v3 Liquidity Pool (130). This proposal was resubmitted and executed on December 17 after 100% voted “YAE”.

:speaking_head: Provide your feedback on these Aave Requests for Comment:

  • Update renFIL Interest Rate Strategy on Aave v2 Ethereum. BDG Labs says that “the offer/demand dynamics for renFIL” have been “disturbed,” and “recommend lowering to the minimum the parameters of the interest rate strategy, to not accumulate extra growth of renFIL on the borrowing side.”
  • Chaos Labs <> Aave v2 Coverage. @ChaosLabs proposes “to expand the scope of its engagement with Aave to include proactive risk analysis and management of the v2 markets while encouraging and supporting a safe migration to the upcoming Ethereum v3 deployment.”
  • [ARC] Aave v3 Polygon wMATIC Interest Rate Update. Discussion continues.
  • [ARC] Freeze RENFIL for Aave V2 ETH Market. Current situation explained by BGD Labs.
