Weekly Governance Recaps

Weekly Governance Update: Week of April 14th, 2025

One onchain proposal went up for a vote this week.

Proposals

MIP-M43 Switching Moonwell’s GLMR Market to using API3’s OEV Enabled Data Feed for GLMR

Summary: This proposal is a resubmission of MIP-M42, which sought to switch from Chainlink to API3’s OEV-enabled data feed for the GLMR Core Market on Moonbeam. If successful, API3 would distribute 80% of the OEV proceeds to Moonwell via the addReserves function. Although MIP-M42 was passed, it contained incorrectly configured calldata and it failed to execute. MIP-M43 was successful.
