@yudi i updated the proposal to state that we MAY simply set the recipient if it results in a better implementation ---

Awesome, can you update the title too? ---

I’m pretty sure that bots verify the rewards potential before execution, otherwise they are already taking a risk. Implementation wise, allowing anyone to trigger it is the easier way to do it of course. ---

sure, happy to leave the implementation open as it’s not important to the outcome ---

This proposal seems to have support from the community but didn’t hit quorum (32% of the way there). I see that even the automaton didn’t vote in this round (@mbr FYI). I am guessing, it could have been due to low voter awareness. @thedavidmeister perhaps we can bring up this proposal again in two weeks (In August) for the Bancor DAO to vote on it again?

@glenn yes lets keep submitting it until it is voted in or someone gives a reason why we shouldn’t do it ---

im in favor of this. has my vote. DAO claims the rewards that anons would have received? I do not see any reason why this was never implemented in the first place. This change may not solve our current situation, but it may be a small piece in the long run towards a stronger protocol and healthier DAO. that being said, once the treasury becomes large enough, this may become another factor why an individual should accumulate BNT. good idea @thedavidmeister ---

@ZenoBNT Raised some interesting points that might be relevant here. If the vortex is triggered less often, there will be some value loss to slippage and arbs. > [@Feedback Request: V3 Vortex - Burn The Collected BNT or Wait](https://gov.bancor.network/t/feedback-request-v3-vortex-burn-the-collected-bnt-or-wait/3800/24): > > Hey everyone. So I had a pretty long discussion with Dave in telegram and through that conversation a few interesting data points came to light. As of this post there is about 482,000 BNT sitting around waiting to be used - I’m just going to round this to 500k because it will be there in about 5 days anyway. Should we spend 500k BNT on vBNT and burn the vBNT all at once? Should we break up the spending into smaller parts over a longer time frame? Do we spend all 500k BNT on vBNT? Is there som… ---

@foxsteven that’s talking about the ratio and slippage and it has more to do with liquidity than frequency technically that’s a whole rabbit hole conversation ---

I voted no on this because we haven’t established the treasury yet & it requires commissioning a bot to be effective. I’m completely open to revisiting this in the future once we have established a treasury, with a plan to create the infrastructure.
