Forum post: MIP-M30: Multichain Governor Migration - Transfer wBTC market admin

Author: Elliot

Summary: On Wednesday, an untraditional proposal went live. MIP-M30 transferred the admin privileges of the WBTC market to the new Multichain Governor. Back in April, MIP-M23 was the initial proposal for the new cross-chain contracts. This process involved several steps; among these steps was the transfer of admin privileges of the Moonwell Markets on Moonbeam to the new Governor. During MIP-M23, admin privileges for BUSD, WETH, USDC, GLIMMER, DOT, FRAX, and WBTC were transferred. However, two WBTC markets needed to be transferred, and only one transfer was made. MIP-M30 aimed to complete that process. Voting took place from Boardroom’s frontend due to its support of the old governor contract.

Outcome: MIP-M30 successfully passed its onchain voting period.
