August 9, 2021
The Governance Facilitator(s) and the MakerDAO Smart Contracts Domain Team have placed an Executive Vote into the voting system. MKR Holders should vote for this proposal if they support the following alterations to the Maker Protocol.
Due to the recent usage of the ETH-A vault type and the need to frequently increase the Debt Ceiling, ETH-A is proposed to be added to the Debt Ceiling Instant Access Module (DC-IAM) as described here. If this proposal passes, the DC-IAM will be activated for ETH-A with the following parameters:
line
): 1.5 billion DAIgap
): 30 million DAIttl
): 12 hoursThis proposal ties in with this ongoing signal request to adjust the ETH-A Debt Ceiling in the face of a continued increase in demand for the ETH-A vault-type.
Documentation covering the Debt Ceiling Instant Access Module can be found here.
Therefore, if this Executive proposal passes the following will occur:
This Executive Vote will continue until the number of votes in favor surpasses the votes in favor of the currently leading proposal. This is a continuous approval vote.
If this executive vote does not pass within 30 days then it will expire and have no effect on the Maker Protocol, even if it should later pass.
Community debate on these topics can be found on the MakerDAO governance forum. Please review any linked threads to inform your position before voting.
Additionally, these changes may have been discussed further in recent Governance calls. Video for these calls is available to review.
