Glad to see the momentum continue! Has the group explored a partnership with Fei Protocol? Their liquidity-as-a-service model is really interesting and seems like a natural match for part of what this working group is seeking to achieve.

*edit - if not and if the WG has interest, I could explore this further

Would love more details, or a tl;dr if they have one :slight_smile:

Thanks @Lunacat! We haven’t explored using LaaS for this diversification as we’re focused on finding the right long term strategic partners for Gitcoin DAO, which we feel can be best accomplished through the WG.

Echoing Kyle, it’d be great to hear more about what you’re thinking. Could you elaborate on how you see LaaS fitting into our goals here? GTC trades about $20m of volume daily so liquidity hasn’t been a huge concern.
