Governance
1. Custom taker fee on stable to stable trading
The Bancor DAO recently approved a proposal that will identify stablecoin pairs on Carbon that should have a custom fee that overrides the default network wide 0.20% trading fee. The goal of this proposal is to bring Carbon in line with other DEXs that charge a lower fee on stablecoin pairs.
Per the proposal, the following list of stablecoin pairs will be updated to have a 0.001% trading fee:
USDC/USDT
USDC/DAI
USDC/FRAX
USDC/LUSD
USDT/DAI
2. Selling protocol surpluses for ETH
The DAO approved a proposal to sell token surpluses in Bancor v3 for ETH. Following the conversion of surpluses the DAO will continue exploring potential usage of the ETH, with the overarching goal being to eliminate any remaining deficits in Bancor v2.1 and v3.
