GP 16: Remove excess inventory on Arbitrum and BNB Smart Chain

The proposal has been confirmed and executed:

• BNB transaction 1

• BNB transaction 2

• Arbitrum transaction 1

• Arbitrum transaction 2

Proposal objective

In GP7, BOB inventory was expanded across a number of chains. Since that deployment, usage analysis shows minimal traction and usage of BOB on the BNB Smart Chain and Arbitrum One network. To consolidate resources and shift focus from the inventory model to BOB CDP, we propose removing BOB inventory positions from Uniswap and BOBSwap on BNB Smart Chain and Arbitrum One.

Note: Any BOB in active circulation on either chain will continue to be backed 1:1 by USDC and can be removed/traded on Uniswap at any time.

This excess inventory removal will result in a smaller overall market cap for BOB, but will not impact stability or other factors related to the BOB stablecoin.

Proposal Details

This proposal was originally presented in the forum for community feedback. All amounts are approximate and will vary slightly during execution. The proposal will result in a decrease of total supply of ~14m BOB (49.5m → 35.5m).

BNB Chain (9m → 1m)

1. Deallocate 5,000,000 BOB (→ 0 BOB) from BobSwap

2. Deallocate 1,500,000 BOB (→ 500,000 BOB) from BOB/USDC 0.01% inventory position on Uniswap V3

3. Deallocate 1,500,000 BOB (→ 500,000 BOB) from BOB/USDT 0.01% inventory position on Uniswap V3

Arbitrum (7m → 1m)

1. Deallocate 5,000,000 BOB (→ 0 BOB) from BobSwap

2. Deallocate 1,000,000 BOB (→ 1,000,000 BOB) from BOB/USDC 0.01% inventory position on Uniswap V3.
