The Governance Facilitators have placed a ratification poll into the voting system as part of the responsibilities defined in MIP51. This Governance Poll will be active for fourteen days beginning on Monday, January 10 at 16:00 UTC.

This is a binary vote.

  • You may vote for a single option.
  • You should vote for the option which you prefer.
  • If you would accept either option, you should vote 'Abstain'.

Review

The community may vote in this poll to express support or opposition to MIP40c3-SP47 being accepted and implemented in the Maker Protocol.

A brief summary of this proposal has been provided by the MIP Author and is shown below:

The StarkNet Engineering Core Unit has produced the deliverables for Phase I as detailed in MIP39C2-SP19: the L1 and L2 contract (bridge code), the governance upgradeability mechanism, the DAI bridge limit, and proper documentation of the code. The deployment will happen in January when events are available on StarkNet, and when we have integrated StarkNet’s bridge interface.

StarkNet Engineering Core Unit is proposing a next phase for a requested budget of $487,292. The budget is split 50/50 between Maker and StarkWare, as was the case in MIP40c3-SP28: StarkWare will also fund $487,292. The total budget of Phase II is $974,583.

The deliverables are fast withdrawals L2->L1 and L2<>L2 teleportation. The approach is detailed in this forum post. The scope of the next phase follows the Wormhole design developed by Protocol Engineering (PE-001): Introducing Maker Wormhole.
