Review

The community may vote in this poll to express support or opposition to $mip_code 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:

MIP40c3-SP45 appends Maker Oracle gas costs to the Oracle Core Unit ORA-001 budget for August 1 2021 through end of March 2022. The Maker Oracle gas cost budget is separate from the general operations budget of the Oracle Core Unit. Unlike the Operations budget, which is renewed annually, the Oracle gas costs budget will be renewed every three months. This first subproposal instance of the Oracle gas cost funding requests also includes one-time payments to fund an emergency multi-sig as well as a repayment to the Maker Foundation for fronting Oracle gas costs since August 1st, 2021.
