PR with Payload

https://github.com/BalancerMaxis/multisig-ops/pull/938

Summary:

Enable a Balancer gauge for the PAR/EURA (ECLP-PAR-EURA) E-CLP with a 2% cap on Ethereum.

PAR is crypto-backed Euro stablecoin issued by the Parallel Protocol.

EURA is crypto-backed Euro stablecoin issued by the Angle Protocol.

The pool is an Elliptic Concentrated Liquidity Pool (E-CLP). E-CLPs are custom pools from Gyroscope built on top of Balancer’s pool architecture. They enable trading along the curve of an ellipse. This pool type is ideally suited for stablecoins and liquid staking tokens; is typically more capital efficient and could thus generate significant trading volume.

Protocol Description:

Parallel Protocol

The Parallel Protocol (prev. Mimo Protocol) is a Collateralized Debt Position (CDP) protocol deployed on Ethereum, Polygon and Fantom. Stablecoins (PAR & paUSD) are decentralized (controlled by vMIMO holders), non-custodial, overcollateralized, and fully redeemable synthetic asset pegged to the Euro/USD fiat currency.

Angle Protocol

Angle is a decentralized and over-collateralized stablecoin protocol composed of smart contracts running on open blockchains. It can be used to issue stablecoins designed to maintain the value of the assets they are pegged to.

EURA (previously agEUR), pegged to the value of the Euro - €. EURA holders can stake their stablecoins for stEUR in order to earn a native € yield.

Motivation:

The role of the PAR/EURA E-CLP pool is to increase the stability of PAR, the on-chain liquidity of both PAR and EURA, connect the Parallel and Angle ecosystems.

The capital efficiency of E-CLPs will help to quickly increase the liquidity for PAR & EURA. This hub-and-spoke network will enable a more liquid secondary market for PAR & EURA to make it easier to exit from/ enter into PAR & EURA.

By using E-CLPs a comparably small amount of initial capital can provide a disproportionately deep market for PAR & EURA. The E-CLP’s efficiency gains are possible due to:

• Customizable liquidity profiles: Using the curve of an ellipse enables highly customizable liquidity profiles. E-CLPs can be calibrated to approximate most trading curves that would be desired. E-CLP curves can be tailored to have certain regions of low price impact and other regions of high price impact.
• Price bounds: The E-CLP concentrates liquidity within price-bounds that enable the E-CLP to be highly capital-efficient. Functionally, this works by enabling arbitrary truncation of liquidity profiles from a given trading curve. In effect, the capital efficiency comes from bounding the trading curve to an expected trading range of the assets.

A few notes:

• PAR (the Parallel EURO stablecoin) already have a gauge on Balancer Polygon: 2eur (PAR)
• paUSD (the Parallel USD stablecoin) already have a gauge on Balancer Ethereum: e-cs-kp-USD
• Mimo Labs has started building positions in AURA (±557k $vlAURA) & BAL and the Parallel Protocol treasury currently holds 23k $vlAURA.
• Mimo Labs is still buying AURA which will be locked to incentivize the liquidity.
• MIMO (the Parallel governance token) already gauges on Balancer Ethereum & Polygon: p-MIMO/WETH 80/20 / MIMO/WETH 80/20

Specifications:

1. Governance:

• Parallel Protocol: none on-chain governance (vote via snapshot) and decisions are executed through a ⅝ multi-sig (4 team members and 4 dao members elected by vMIMO holders).
  • Polygon PoS: 0x2046c0416A558C40cb112E5ebB0Ca764c3C5c32a
  • Ethereum: 0x25Fc7ffa8f9da3582a36633d04804F0004706F9b
  • Fantom: 0x174162ddecE9d0b7B68fd945e38c3372C4C818ba
• Angle Protocol: The Angle DAO is controlled by veANGLE holders through onchain votes. Angle governance enables the community of veANGLE holders to propose, vote, and implement changes through the administrative smart contract functions of the protocol.

2. Oracles:

• Parallel: PAR uses EURUSD chainlink price feed and mainly uses Chainlink price feeds for all its collateral assets.
• Angle: agEUR uses EURUSD Chainlink price feed.

3. Audits:

• Parallel: https://certificate.quantstamp.com/full/ten-x-titan
• Angle: https://docs.angle.money/resources/audits

4. Assets & Centralizing vector:

• PAR has a debt limit on each collateral, is partially collateralized by USDC (≈ 30%) and the ownership of the Parallel protocol and is held by a 5/8 multisig with 4 signers from Mimo Labs and 4 signers elected by vMIMO holders.
• EURA: is overcollateralized (details here). The Angle DAO is controlled by veANGLE holders through onchain votes and is responsible for parameters tuning, deploying new stablecoins, accepting new collateral types for a given stablecoin, for treasury management and for protocol upgrades and integrations

5. Market history:

• PAR has been live since April 2021 (on Ethereum); PAR is soft pegged to EUR
• EURA: (previously agEUR) has kept a tight peg since its launch.

6. Value:

• The PAR/EURA E-CLP pool will act as the main route for arbitrages and the use cases mentioned above (on-chain liquidity, etc.).
