[ARCHIVED] Voting in favour of Abracadabra BentoBox Strategist Proposal

Voting with treasury xSUSHI in favour of the Abracadabra BentoBox Strategist Proposal

Summary: The following proposal aims at using BitDAO Treasury held xSUSHI tokens to vote in favor of the following Sushiswap Governance Proposal, proposed by Abracadabra Money DAO.

Please note: due to Forum moderation setting the Sushiswap proposal link is posted in the first comment.

Abracadabra proposes to be elected as a BentoBox Strategist to create new strategies on idle Abracadabra-held assets on BentoBox. As the largest protocol deployed on BentoBox with over $115M in TVL from our assets, we are best positioned to ensure the success and security of BentoBox strategies for Abracadabra specific assets.

If the proposal were to pass, Abracadabra would share 5% of all fees earned with the BitDAO treasury, which could become a stream of revenue for BitDAO into perpetuity.

Benefit to $BIT Holders:

Abracadabra proposes a 35% fee sharing agreement on all strategies involving Abracadabra-developed strategies and Abracadabra-held assets on BentoBox, that will basically turn idle TVL on BentoBox into productive assets for SUSHI holders, while improving Abracadabra efficiency and growth abilities.

This 35% (or whatever amounts will be agreed on on the Sushiswap Governance side) will be given directly to Sushiswap DAO and will inherently benefit SUSHI holders, and transitory $BIT holders as BitDAO treasury is one of the largest SUSHI holders.

In the best interest of $BIT holders, Abracadabra proposes to share 5% of all fees earned, which will come from Abracadabra’s portion of fee sharing. These fees will be deposited directly into the BitDAO treasury.

Insight on the Proposal:

Whitelisting Abracadabra to create BentoBox strategies would provide Sushi with a partner that has aligned incentives. As Abracadabra has the largest TVL linked to BentoBox, new strategies would be thoroughly tested and assessed before deployment.

To effectively create and deploy strategies, ownership of BentoBox would need to be transferred to a BentoBox owner that allows Abracadabra to add strategies to the tokens mentioned in the proposal; once that happens, Abracadabra would become a core strategy producer.

The Sushi operational safe would still be able to control all other assets parameters on BentoBox and may transfer or relinquish this control at any point in the future.

The implementation of the contract that holds the ownership can be found at the following address: 0x4427a2840a3af9a9495fde28cb5c019585a3a09b.

If this proposal were to be passed, ownership of BentoBox would be transferred to this contract. Audit results can be produced upon request.

Timing and Voting:

If this proposal were to pass, BitDAO would simply need to vote in favor of the Abracadabra proposal whenever the Sushiswap governance snapshot is posted! Consequently, fee sharing would be activated towards the BitDAO Treasury and $BIT holders

Abracadabra Bentobox Strategist Proposal

Summary

We propose that Abracadabra be elected as a Bentobox Strategist to create new strategies on Abracadabra-held assets on Bentobox. As the largest protocol deployed on Bentobox with over $115M in TVL from our assets, we are best positioned to ensure the success and security of Bentobox strategies for Abracadabra specific assets.

Abstract

Whitelist Abracadabra on Bentobox, and once that happens, allow Abracadabra to become a main strategy producer, with a 35% fee sharing agreement with Sushiswap.

Background

Abracadabra lending platform has captured over $6B in TVL at its peak, with over $258M worth of assets currently held in our cauldrons. Our initial cauldrons were built on top of Bentobox, which allows for reduced transaction fees and creation of multiple strategies to increase our yield production.

Motivation

Currently, we have no control over Bentobox, and our inability to deploy strategies on it has hindered us from unlocking the full potential of our cauldrons. This lack of control also poses security risks for Abracadabra users in case of vulnerabilities or ecosystem changes.

It’s important to note that currently none of our cauldrons have strategies deploy on top of them, and the assets held by Abracadabra on Bentobox are primarily wrappers, staked tokens, and other interest-bearing collateral that are specifically deployed for Abracadabra users.

These Abracadabra-held assets are not traded on Sushiswap’s main DEX infrastructure, and any strategies related to them would not create any issues for Sushiswap users. We can assure the Sushi community that our strategies on Bentobox would be designed to complement our cauldrons and would not interfere with normal Sushiswap operations.

This further emphasizes the seamless integration of Abracadabra into Bentobox and the mutual benefits of allowing Abracadabra to take control over it, including the proposal of a 35% fee sharing agreement on all strategies involving Abracadabra-developed strategies and Abracadabra-held assets on Bentobox.

Specification

Whitelisting Abracadabra to create Bentobox strategies would provide Sushi with a partner that has aligned incentives. As Abracadabra has the largest TVL linked to Bentobox, new strategies would be thoroughly tested and assessed before deployment. This partnership would reduce Sushi’s liability around strategies while allowing Abracadabra to actively promote and deploy strategies on Bentobox involving Abracadabra Held Assets.

Abracadabra proposes a 35% fee sharing agreement on all strategies involving Abracadabra-developed strategies and Abracadabra-held assets on Bentobox.

Fee sharing may be directly sent to the Sushi treasury or added to the automatic xSushi distributions.

Abracadabra Users collateral that could receive strategies if this proposal was to pass are:

To effectively produce and deploy these strategies, ownership of Bentobox would be transferred to a BentoBox owner that allows Abracadabra to only add strategies to the tokens above, and once that happens, Abracadabra would become a main strategy producer.

The Sushi OPS safe would still be able to control all other assets parameters on BentoBox and may transfer or relinquish this control at any point in the future.

The implementation may be found at the following address 0x4427a2840a3af9a9495fde28cb5c019585a3a09b.

If this proposal were to be passed, ownership of BentoBox would be transferred to it. Audit results will be produced upon request.

We invite the SUSHI community to provide their valuable feedback and engage in this discussion on the topic of allowing Abracadabra to become a main strategy producer both here and on Discord, feel free to ping any of Abracadabra Main contributors for any related questions.

Together we can work towards a solution that benefits all stakeholders and ensure the continued success and sustainability of Sushiswap and its associated partners/protocols.

hnmmm not sure about this

Sounds appealing to apply for the ecosystem, but what’s the real value proposition?

whats the true value?

It’s an interesting proposal but I think you’d need to explain again what BentoBox is in order for more Mantle ecosystem participants to take part in the discussion.

In particular, an example with basic visuals focusing on one collateral would be useful to most here.
