Proposal #82
Proposal to Fund Unichain and v4 Liquidity Incentive Programs proposed by the Uniswap Foundation, with contributions from Gauntlet
Forum post here. Temp check here.
Gauntlet has deployed and configured an Aera vault for the Uniswap Foundation on mainnet. Ownership transfer has been initiated from Gauntlet to the Uniswap Timelock contract. If passed, this proposal will accept the ownership transfer to the UNI Timelock and resume the vault. After successfully transferring ownership and resuming the Aera vault, the proposal will approve and deposit UNI tokens into the Aera vault. This step ensures that the vault is properly funded to support liquidity incentives.

I support the incentives proposed for v4, and also see a lot of potential in Unichain, but don't think that it's justified to spend UNI tokens on that unless the DAO gets a better deal in terms of control and fee share on the chain.

The Event Horizon Community voted FOR on this Proposal (ehUNI-45): EventHorizon.vote/vote/uniswap/ehUNI-45
We vote FOR the proposal. The incentives requested in the proposal can (1) help the migration of liquidity from v3 to v4 and (2) bring more TVL/volume to Unichain. As described in the proposal, incentive programs are common in the ecosystem - and can be one-off solutions to grow new solutions. However, it is important that KPIs are managed. Tracking the efficiency of capital allocation in liquidity programs is key to not throwing money at the DAO with no return for it. If the KPIs are not met, the Gauntlet must draw up new plans to achieve the objectives stipulated in the proposal. If they don't succeed, the money should go back to the DAO. In addition, it's essential to think about the long-term strategy - mentioned by Gauntlet/UF in the proposal. We know how incentive programs can work for a short time - only as long as rewards are distributed to users. It is essential that capital allocation is done with this in mind, with a view to not repeating the same problems of other projects that have done the same in the market. We also advocate the creation of a proposal that encourages more Hooks to be created on Uniswap. However, it would be interesting to fund mainly those that bring some kind of return to the DAO.
