BDIP09 (Formal vote): Cap BSD inflation at 2.5% per epoch when BSD > $1

Voting ended about 5 years agoSucceeded

This is a formal proposal.

As per https://docs.basisdollar.fi/ProtocolParameters, this requires (among other things) a voting quorum of 20% and a minimum epoch length of 6 epochs (3 days).

Following the successful passing of the indicative vote on the following proposal below, this is now being put forward as a formal proposal. https://gov.basisdollar.fi/#/basisdollar.eth/proposal/QmdgYtadcFe1iEf3yHSviDkmEhWJXB9fTaXzoNq5HXU4oD

Note: We remain in a contraction phase, so the effects of this proposal won't happen until we are next in an expansion phase.

To recap the proposal: As per https://docs.basisdollar.fi/ProtocolParameters, during expansion periods, inflation is capped at 4.5% or 9.0% (depending on whether there is system debt outstanding).

The rate of BSD printing may result in rapid deceleration of BSD price past $1, until it is below $1.

2.5% compounded every 12 hours, doubles the amount of BSD in existence in 28 epochs (14 days).

How it works (Mechanism):

Amend the following as such:

WDP above 1$ where amount of $BSD in Treasury contract >= total Supply of $BSDB (Basis Dollar Bond) Maximum Supply Expansion: 1.25% Expansion Percentage: WDPrice - 1 * 100 or 1.25% (whichever is lower)

WDP above 1$ where amount of $BSD in Treasury contract < total Supply of $BSDB (Basis Dollar Bond) Maximum Supply Expansion: 2.5% Expansion Percentage: WDPrice - 1 * 100 or 2.5% (whichever is lower)

Advantages:

  1. For those in the BSD/DAI and BSD/USDC farms, this reduces the extent of impermanent loss you face as there will be less BSD printed and therefore potentially less sold into the farms.

  2. Reduces inflation during an epoch where BSD > $1.

Disadvantages:

  1. The APY on Seignorage Shares will decline as BSD inflation will be reduced. However, this may lead to normalized, sustainable long-term APY, rather than short-term capital that moves in and out.

  2. Due to the reduction in BSD emission when BSD > $1, there will also be less BSD available for bonds to be redeemed (ensuring that all bondholders will tend to be come long-term bondholders rather than short-term bondholders). It will take more time to clear system debt. However, this will also mean that we will be less likely to fall below the $1 peg and therefore have smaller amounts of system debt.
