Very interesting topic - such important to avoid malicious votes from actors.
I think adding time lock variable into protocols voting power is also a solution.
To limit borrowing amount seems partial to me and not so effective if user can go to CREAM when limit is reached.
Also convincing the biggest ecosystem stakeholders to vote only with aTokens will be complicate.
Let’s take a look at DAO that are less subject to attack : Curve. Why so ?
- You can not borrow Curve tokens on Aave. Ok but you can on CREAM. Yes but for 105% APY. Why so expensive ?
- Because there is time lock. 20.8% of the total CRV supply is locked in exchange of veCRV.
Cooldown is an interesting feature to continue to dig in order to insure voters are long term skined in the game participants. imo
Question
Not enabling AAVE and UNI as borrowing assets on the Aave protocol and disabling MKR and YFI, while pushing for those protocols to support aUNI, aYFI and aMKR voting.
How aUNI aMKR, etc can remain bearing fees tokens if you can’t borrow theme and pay fees for that?
