Maker Proposal Outlines Endgame Improvements and Liquidity Strategies
馃攽 Maker's Endgame Liquidity Boost
A new proposal from the Maker community suggests several enhancements for the upcoming launch season. Key points include activating hedged perpetual exposure strategies, deploying a Direct Deposit Module (D3M) to inject Dai liquidity into Morpho's sUSDe/DAI and USDe/DAI markets through SparkDAO, exploring new strategic opportunities leveraging sUSDe APYs and Dai borrowing rates, and increasing USDC reserves to strengthen the Dai stablecoin's stability and liquidity. The proposal aims to reduce borrowing costs, unlock leverage possibilities, and improve overall financial efficiency within the Maker ecosystem.
As we approach Launch Season, a new proposal sets the stage for the initial release of Endgame improvements. The proposal includes various suggestions, including a potential deployment of a Direct Deposit Module (D3M) that would inject Dai liquidity into Morpho's sUSDe/DAI and
Endgame Introduces NewStable and NewGovToken
Endgame unveils NewStable (NST) and NewGovToken (NGT), upgraded versions of DAI and MKR. Key points: - DAI and MKR remain available indefinitely - 1 DAI = 1 NST, 1 MKR = 24,000 NGT - Upgrading is optional with seamless conversion - DAI to focus on crypto-native use, NST on mass adoption - NGT redenomination aims to boost governance engagement Users can continue using existing tokens or opt for upgrades. The ecosystem will explore ways to differentiate DAI and NST. This expansion offers new features while maintaining flexibility for token holders.
MakerDAO Governance Proposes Significant Protocol Changes
A new Executive Vote is currently open on the Maker Governance portal. If approved, it will implement several changes to the Maker Protocol, including reductions in Stability Fees for various collateral types and a decrease in the Dai Savings Rate from 8% to 7%. The proposal also includes updates to the Chainlink Keeper Network Treasury Address, an Aave-SparkLend revenue share payment, and Aligned Delegate Compensation for June 2024. Additionally, a Spark Proxy Spell will be triggered, reducing the Spark Effective DAI Borrow Rate and increasing the capacity of weETH. MKR holders and delegates are encouraged to participate in shaping MakerDAO's future by voting or delegating their MKR.
Governance Poll Approves Increase in weETH Capacity for SparkLend
The Maker Governance Poll to increase weETH capacity in SparkLend has been approved. The proposal, promoted by Phoenix Labs and supported by a risk analysis from BlockAnalitica, will be included in the next Executive Vote. If passed, it will increase the weETH Supply Cap Max to 200,000 weETH and the weETH Isolation Mode Debt Ceiling to 200 million DAI. This decision comes in response to strong demand for weETH since its integration into SparkLend in mid-June, with deposits reaching several million within the first weeks. The changes aim to enhance user experience and improve the ability to borrow DAI at scale on Ethereum Mainnet.
Proposal to Onboard Etherfi's weETH into SparkLend Open for Voting
A new proposal to list Etherfi's weETH, the largest Liquid Restaking Token (LRT) on the market, as collateral on SparkLend is now open for voting in the Maker Governance Portal. Phoenix Labs has proposed listing weETH to increase DAI borrowing on SparkLend, given the low competition for borrowing USD stablecoins using LRT collateral. The initial parameters and risk assessment are based on current market and liquidity conditions for weETH, with a proposed Loan to Value of 75%, Liquidation Threshold of 73%, and Supply Cap of 5,000 weETH. If approved, this change will be part of an upcoming Executive Vote in SparkLend.
Spark MetaMorpho DAI Vault Allocation Updated
The allocation strategy for the Spark MetaMorpho DAI Vault has been updated following recommendations from the BlockAnalitica team. The updates involve adjustments to the allocations across various USDe and sUSDe vaults with different Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratios. The total Direct-Deposit Module exposure remains unchanged. The updates aim to maintain an optimal balance between risk and return while keeping the overall exposure within sustainable limits.
