RFC: Increase Transaction Fees on Centrifuge Chain by 100x and Use the Fees towards a Token Burn

Yup, i was on it, got my answer for the first question and the confirmation here :slight_smile:

Any insight you might share about the second one ? I think it would be a good idea to not keep the entire treasury in CFG, there is many example of treasury from protocol/dao that got shrunk by the recent bear market (DyDx, Aave, Uniswap etc etc ).

So is it possible for us to vote on a proposal like this and does the Polkadot/Centrifuge Governance ā€œCodeā€ allow us to hold different assets in the Treasury?

Have a nice day !

Good day Sherman
Wow. This proposal is very interesting.

Polkadot/Parity is actually already discussing a multi-currency treasury: META: Moving the Treasury Off the Relay Chain Ā· Issue #5293 Ā· paritytech/polkadot Ā· GitHub and itā€™s something Iā€™ve advocated for within the Polkadot community arleady. I think it will take a bit of time to develop this but I do very much agree with you that this is something we should look towards integrating.

Thanks!

Sorry Iā€™m a bit ignorant when it comes to the Polkadot ecosystemā€¦

Iā€™ve only worked on creating DAOs via the OpenZepplin Governor template on some EVM chains .

But yeah @ImdioR @lucasvo I think that having the choice of swaping some CFG hold in our treasury for StableCoins (most likely Ausd in our case) is the path forward to assure the perennity of the Centrifuge Protocol/Dao !

Hi LĆ©o.

I like the idea of diversifying the treasury. Do you have any concrete ideas how this could look like?

Feel free to create a new forum post as a Request for Comments (RFC) to get feedback and comments on the feasability of your proposal.

I find it better to create a new post to start the discussion instead of commenting here where it might be forgotten in the thread :wink:

Good day Luis and thank you for this update.

Hey @Tjure07

So basically, as CFG Token accrue in the Centrifuge Treasury, community could choose to Swap some CFG for a StableCoin (Ausd or else). This would allow us to preserve the Treasury from the inherent volatility of the CFG Token. Doing this will/should allow us to have better visibility on how much we have and what we could fund with the Treasury (Credit Group, Analytics Tools, etc etc ā€¦).

Something that would be very nice to do with the part of the Treasury that would have been swapped would be to earn yield on it, so we donā€™t let the Treasury capital stay idle and we keep the Treasury growing.

For the Governance Scheme, as I stated before Iā€™m not very knowledgeable about how Polkadot work, but basically, it would follow the current Centrifuge voting process (RFC then Onchain voting) but I canā€™t really tell you how it would look code wiseā€¦

As for the RFC, as Lucas stated, the Polkadot governance scheme doesnā€™t allow us to keep a multi-currency treasury as now, so I might wait until Parity find a way to allow that and then yeah for sure I will find the time to do it !

I still got some more general question about this fee bumpā€¦

First - I see that you guys are still doing some testing on the fee bump on GitHub, So as now the feed bump is not activated and we are still waiting on few things on your end correct ?

Second - What about Tinlake? Will there be ever fee taken from operation that are done on Tinlake ? Because as the Centrifuge Partnership with Maker is getting deeper (Sup BlockTower :wink: ) and deeper I donā€™t really see Maker using a bridge.

And invest in Cent Pools ? :wink:

Once Pools will be launched on Cent Chain all trx will be done on Cent chain and as a result more trx ā†’ more fee

Btw thank you for deep comment :wink:

If legally possible sure itā€™s an option !

Pretty sure MakerDao wonā€™t want to use a bridge to connect to Centrifuge RWA (on the CentChain) and actual pool will need to be transferred to the CentChain and this will take timeā€¦

Maybe you have more information about Centrifuge and Maker than me, but, to me, it seem unlikely to see Tinlake dying on the medium term, if not ever, hence my question on Tinlake fee.

Salut LĆ©o.

The team is currently working on a proposal to increase the utility of CFG to a) turn on protocol fees (e.g from locking NFTs and b) staking in pools (use your CFG to vote on upcoming pools)

The burning increase must be implemented both in CFG and in ALTAIR

Hi @hachibi, it will be implemented on both chains with the two upcoming Runtime Upgrades.
