Llama Month 2 Update
We would like to share our monthly progress report and field any questions from the Aave community.
As a reminder, our areas of focus are:
- Protocol upgrades
- Treasury management
- Analytics
- Growth
We’re planning to host our next Llama <> Aave community Twitter Spaces on December 15, 2022 at 11:00 am ET - we hope you’ll join us!
Highlights
- Proposed and executed 2 on-chain proposals: 100k BAL acquisition, Risk Parameter Updates for Aave v2 Ethereum Liquidity Pool.
- Published 7 ARCs (details below).
- Worked with Chaos Labs to propose AIP-125, which allows users to deposit assets across the majority of reserves rather than freezing pools as outlined in AIP-121.
- Co–authored an ARC with Gauntlet to repay excess debt (~$1.6m at the time of publication) in Aave’s CRV market. Roughly ~$280k of stkAAVE will be used from Gauntlet’s insolvency fund. Llama and Gauntlet have recommended that the rest of the excess debt be repaid using Aave’s Collector Contract.
