Gelato Community Update — March 2022
Hey! Welcome back to another Gelato Community Update🍦
After reaching consensus through the Snapshot Voting process, a unanimous decision to officially spin-out G-UNI from Gelato into its own DAO was successful. The Community-led counter Proposal was crowned victorious as voting concluded late Monday afternoon.
Option 2 which was initially put forward as a ‘counter’ to the originally presented Proposal gained a majority by the largest Gelato stakeholders who voted in support of the proposed changes that included issuing a larger pro-rata allocation of the $SPICE token supply to Liquid GEL holders and the Gelato Community at large. The Proposal saw a fantastic turnout of voters and resulted in a passionate success for the overall Gelato Community.
The future of Arrakis looks well and truly bright from here. We’ll be following the development of Arrakis closely as it can now flourish with all the support and resources needed to become an integral framework for liquidity provision within decentralized finance.
We would also like to send out our special thanks to all of the Gelato community members who came together in such a short timeframe to discuss, coordinate and formulate a very well-established counter Proposal.
GEL token holders should keep a close eye on how they will be able to lock their GEL tokens to receive SPICE with further information set to follow in the near future.
Gelato Ops
Minimax Finance integrates Gelato to automate the processing of stop loss and take profit events bringing increased reliability and efficiency to their users.
Some other notably interesting Ops integrations have come from protocols that have been using Gelato to automatically update their TWAP oracles on a regular basis.
Gelato Ops has seen a 86% increase in growth on a month-on-month basis in total executions, with a rise of 24.8% in task creations just this week alone.
We expect these metrics to continue increasing exponentially following the recent uptick in market growth and participation. Soon we will also provide very aesthetic illustrations depicting Ops analytics on a regular basis for a more detailed view of Gelato’s network performance over time.
Range Orders
We’re cooking up something — soon you’ll be able to set a range order on Polygon’s Uniswap V3 using Sorbet Finance. Stay tuned!
