Add Market: LINK

Understood I was asking too early, sorry about that. Excited to see the active proposal pass soon with almost unanimous support. :slightly_smiling_face:

Great suggestion @mistertom.

@TylerEther - your fantastic effort on adding LINK to Compound is definitely eligible for a grant from the Compound Grants Program! Is that something you’d be open to?

I’ve just applied for a grant. :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks everyone for the support!

Now that there are no proposals active, I’ve submitted a CAP: Ethereum Transaction Hash (Txhash) Details | Etherscan

EDIT: The full proposal to add link was directly proposed by blck who has enough COMP delegated. Delegations to the Autonomous Proposal (CAP) need to be re-delegated to another voting address before voting starts on the full proposal in order to vote for the full proposal!

To delegate your comp, one has to do

  1. go to compound app
  2. go to vote
  3. you’ll see delegating to - click change
  4. delegate to CAP address 0xb3768415df87eba2d2019e89f9a31bbb313f8c7b

to save fees you can go to:

Interesting discussion here: Lower Proposal Threshold regarding the high COMP delegation requirement for making full proposals. Specifically comments from Arr00 and Getty who have personally been through the pain of trying to gather 100k COMP delegation for CAP’s.

Thanks for sharing this thread. Coincidentally 65k COMP is currently delegated to the proposal (exactly what @arr00 was suggesting we set the threshold to).

I definitely support lowering it to at least 65k, and possibly 50k, to get these CAPs through to a formal vote, as they appear to have widespread community support.

There’s an “easy” way to fast-track popular proposals past the CAP and delegation hurdle. If we have a community member with 100k voting power already delegated (currently there are 8 such voters) we can try to convince them to submit the proposal as they already meet the delegation threshold for full proposal. The discussion to lower the delegation threshold proposal both increases the number of community members with enough power to immediately submit full proposals, and lowers the delegation hurdle for Autonomous Proposals. This has been discussed before and we will probably see a proposal or CAP coming to lower the threshold :slight_smile: in the future.
In the case of adding LINK, we’ve already reached over 65k delegation so we’re gaining momentum toward the 100k needed for the CAP. It will be interesting to see how gathering delegations goes, 35k is still a large amount of COMP to get re-delegated!

Agreed! I know @blck has indicated willingness to delegate (but is currently tied up in another live proposal).

Any other takers?

If nothing changes i will do it at the end of sunday, so the review and the voting period will be on normal working days and not weekend.

Well the CAP for adding LINK lost its 65k delegation. Maybe would you consider proposing the LINK token-add this coming Sunday evening @blck ? @TylerEther received a grant for this so you two could probably coordinate offline for any compensation of gas fees or other work items, or even directly with grants committee if you want separate payments.
There’s another proposal inbound here Safety and Gas Patches but it appears they’re not done with the code reviews and changes yet. If that proposal does come out before this one then I guess we can use the new cToken implementation (part of each liquidation goes to cToken reserves).

TUSD proposal is now live so we’ll have to wait until after that one. https://compound.finance/governance/proposals/45

Awesome, I didn’t even know we could have two proposals pending at the same time! @TylerEther you can get that COMP back from the cap for voting on this proposal by using the terminate() option on the cap. Thanks so much for posting the proposal @blck ! :slightly_smiling_face:

@tonyotonio delegations to the CAP will no longer be votable for adding LINK because we were able to get a full proposal posted by blck (community member with 100k delegation). Please update this post to remove the cap address and request users to re-delegate to their preferred voting address (self or community member).
We are currently in the two-day review period so there is still time to re-delegate!

Update: some benevolent user has queued the proposal in the timelock, thank you for that! :smiley:
Now that the proposal has passed the vote (success), it can be queued in the Timelock. There will be a 48 hour delay between when it is queued and when it can be executed. Any address can queue the proposal.

Excellent! Thanks for the update.

Happy to see all the recent progress here in the Compound community, I feel like we are in a groove. Congrats again to @TylerEther on getting this proposal passed!
