# **Weekly Governance Update: Week of January 13th, 2025**

Two onchain proposals and one Snapshot went up for a vote this week.

## **Proposals**

[**MIP-O12: Solidity Labs’ Oracle Extracted Value (OEV) Solution on ETH Core Market on Optimism**](https://moonwell.fi/governance/proposal/moonbeam?id=153)  
**Summary** : This proposal sought to implement Solidity Labs’ OEV Solution on the ETH Core Market on Optimism. The solution seeks to improve how liquidations occur on Moonwell, ensuring a more efficient capture of revenue from liquidation events. With this proposal, Moonwell would introduce an “MEV tax”, charging liquidators for priority access to update price feeds and execute liquidations. It is initially limited to the ETH Core Market on Optimism as a test. The proposal was successful.
