Abracadabra has introduced a proposal to gradually increase borrowing rates on V1 cauldrons over 30-60 days as part of its transition to V2.​

Key objectives:

  • Stabilize the MIM stablecoin peg
  • Consolidate liquidity before V2 launch
  • Encourage users to migrate from V1 to V2
  • Optimize protocol reserves and revenue

The RFC outlines the pace and structure of these rate increases, using higher borrowing costs as an economic incentive for migration.​ This approach aims to concentrate liquidity in preparation for the V2 deployment while maintaining protocol health during the transition period.​
