Graph Governance Proposal-0001

Separate destination address for withdrawing Indexer indexing rewards

This proposal is to upgrade The Graph's protocol smart contracts running on Ethereum mainnet with the changes described in Graph Improvement Proposal (GIP) 0002. The motivation and scope of the changes are captured in the language of the proposal itself.

The code deployed that implements GIP-0002 must correspond to the commit hash included in the front matter of this governance proposal, which corresponds to the version of the implementation that was audited by OpenZeppelin.

Following a successful "yes" vote, given that the change described in GIP-0002 is backwards compatible, the protocol upgrade should be carried out at the earliest convenience using The Graph Council's Gnosis Multisig.
