The Maker Foundation Interim Risk Team has placed a series of Governance Polls into the voting system which presents polls to implement greenlight polls for GUSD and PAXG.

Poll: Add GUSD as a Collateral Type

The MakerDAO governance facilitator has placed a Governance Poll into the voting system on behalf of the MakerDAO mandated actors. This poll allows the MakerDAO governance community to signal their support or opposition to adding GUSD (Gemini Dollar) as a collateral type in the Maker Protocol.

This Governance Poll will be active for three days beginning on Monday, October 26 at 16:00 UTC.

• Auction Lot Size: 50,000 DAI
• Minimum Bid Increment: 3%
