The decentralized lending protocol MakerDAO has voted against CoinShare’s investment plan for yield which places the community’s funds (from $100M to $500M) into a portfolio of corporate debt securities and government-backed bonds.

CoinShares plan was to provide a variable APY above the SOFR interest rate (3.01% as of October 26, 2022) in the community’s preferred currency (DAI, USDC, USD…) to MakerDAO that could have been withdrawn on-chain. However, the suggestion was eventually disapproved, with 72.43% against, 13.84% in favor, and 13.73% abstaining.

Although most of the community voted against the investment proposal, only two explanations were given for the reason why they voted against the proposal.

Since governance has voted on excess USDC then available, going to just say no to proposals of this type moving forward until the house gets in order. Coinshares had many incongruencies up front but did a decent job of articulating confusing portions of their proposal. Optimistic for a revision / different approach.

We believe this proposal to be extremely beyond protocol risk tolerance
