Proposal: Re-Enable LM Rewards on MKR-BNT (MakerDAO) Pool (conditional upon including Bancor DEX in their buyback mechanism)

This proposal is expected to appear on Snapshot for voting on TBD. Make sure to stake your vBNT for voting before this date and time to participate in the DAO decision.

Vote For :
Re-enable LM rewards for a twelve week duration on the MKR-BNT Pool (Conditional upon including Bancor DEX in their buyback mechanism)

Vote Against :
Do not enable LM rewards for the MKR-BNT Pool

TL DR

  1. The LM Rewards will be re-enabled on the MKR Pool. This is conditional upon including Bancor in their buyback mechanism (work to happen behind the scenes).
  2. The LM rewards duration on the MKR pool can be ended prior to the completion of the extension if the DAO votes to do so.
  3. The LM rewards rate on the MKR pool can be modified prior to the completion of the extension if the DAO votes to do so.

Iā€™m for it. I think the MKR pool has always been of interest.
