Had the community voted in favor, CoinShares would have provided “a variable APY above the SOFR interest rate in the community’s preferred currency to MakerDAO, which would have been withdrawable on-chain. On MakerDAO’s page for the vot, a few members explained why they voted against the proposal. Feedblack Loops LLC shared:
“Since governance has voted on excess USDC then available, going to just say no to proposals of this type moving forward until the house gets in order. Coinshares had many incongruencies up front but did a decent job of articulating confusing portions of their proposal. Optimistic for a revision / different approach.”
Another user, Llama — who also voted against the proposal — said: “We believe this proposal to be extremely beyond protocol risk tolerance.”
