Forum post: Switching all Moonbeam Markets to using API3’s Data Feeds to Maximize OEV Recapture

Author: dav3

Summary: Earlier this year, API3 proposed switching data feeds for Moonwell’s GLMR Core Market to API3’s OEV solution. In mid-April, its onchain proposal was successful and the Market’s data feed was switched (complete with an OEV dashboard). This proposal seeks to switch to using API3’s OEV data feeds for all Moonbeam Core Markets. dav3 notes that this proposal does not compete with The Solidity Labs onchain OEV solution currently used on other deployments. API3 will continue distributing 80% of the OEV proceeds to Moonwell, via the addReserves function on the GLMR core market on Moonbeam
