Adopt an OEV Solution on Ronin (2025 RFP)

This Snapshot is part of the Compound DAO’s 2025 OEV (Oracle Extractable Value) RFP process. Delegates are asked to select whether to adopt an OEV solution for all 10 of the chains that Compound currently resides on, with this vote focusing on RONIN.

For this Snapshot, delegates are able to vote between:

• Adopt Api3
• Adopt Chainlink SVR (phased rollout, chain by chain)
• Do NOT adopt OEV

Note that—

• Api3 and Chainlink have applied for Ronin.

• Chainlink SVR is NOT yet live on L2s—they are proposing a phased rollout plan for the DAO to consider. In the coming weeks, SVR will be available on Base, and shortly after, on Arbitrum, too. Other L2s like Ronin will have SVR rollout over time. We are enabling the DAO to wait for Chainlink to roll out their OEV solution on alternative chains as a potential voting option. Once Chainlink launches on these L2s, they will update the DAO accordingly, and their solution will undergo an additional review, just like the above OZ analyses. Incorporation of Chainlink SVR on L2s will require another Snapshot vote.

• Api3 is able to offer a near immediate integration, as was evidenced by their existing incorporation onto Mantle.

• Chainlink feeds are currently utilized by Compound on Ronin.

This Snapshot vote will be considered valid as long as quorum (the total number of votes submitted, excluding the AGAINST votes, denoted as “Do NOT adopt OEV”) reaches the on-chain threshold of 400k COMP. If quorum is reached, then the winner will be determined by a simple majority. In the event that quorum is not reached for the vote, the chain in question will not adopt any of the OEV options, defaulting to the existing status quo.

“Weighted Voting” is utilized, where each delegate has the ability to spread their voting power across any number of choices. This voting system allows delegates to select between multiple options—or simply allocate their entire voting power to a single vendor.

We ask delegates to carefully consider all of the votable OEV solutions, from both an implementation/security perspective, as well as with a financial viewpoint. Each RFP response comprehensively lays out all of these variables.
