I invite the governance to vote on the following proposal to start working with Handle.fi.
Handle.fi allows to borrow (self-minting) various synthetic fiat against various collateral type.
A partnership with them would lead to the creation of multiple fxToken - jFIAT pool to help their fxToken with their peg and on-chain liquidity.
They are building a network of fiat on/off-ramp which could also be beneficial for us.
Since one can borrow fxToken, it would also allow borrowing jFIAT through the pools we would create with them.
I propose the creation of 2 pools:
We would target $1M of liquidity for each pool, with a targeted APR of 30% and a duration of 90d. This translates into a reward of $150k.
We also would need to launch two pools for the reward token fxSES:
We would target $200k of liquidity for each pool, with a targeted APR of 100% for a duration of 90d. This translates into a reward of $100k.
Handle.fi will bring 50% of the rewards, and our treasury will bring the other 50%. Altogether, for 90d it is a budget of $250k that I suggest to split as follow: $25k of UMA + $75k of JRT + $125k of FOREX.
The treasury would also finance $2500 for seeding the initial liquidity of the fxSES token.
I also propose for the DAO to become co-LP in the jAUD liquidity pool with Jarvis LP, and to add 80k USDC to it (Jarvis LP already has deposited 20k). The 80k USDC would be acquired by selling ~$4k of KNC, ~$23k UMA tokens, and by removing our liquidity from the 90/10 Balancer pool (~40k USDC in the pool) + utilizing ~3k USDC. By being an LP, the DAO would receive 80% of all the trading fees. Note that the DAO can lose funds by being an LP (it is a risky activity), but can also make profits of course.
To sum-up:
