🆕 gEURO requests $50k from GnosisDAO to launch €1 stablecoin on Gnosis Chain (Liquity V2 fork) — 75% of borrowing fees to holders, GnosisDAO gets protocol revenue share + 15% of future token
gEURO requests a $50,000 GnosisDAO grant to fund audit and legal work for a €1.00-pegged CDP stablecoin on Gnosis Chain (Liquity V2 fork by RaidGuild) that uses sDAI/wstETH/GNO/osGNO/WBTC collateral, NFT vaults, user-set interest rates, and a revenue split that gives 75% of borrowing fees to gEURO holders while granting GnosisDAO a protocol revenue share plus 15% of any future governance token. Benefits: creates a native, yield-bearing euro stablecoin that deepens GNO utility, integrates with Gnosis Pay/RWAs/Circles and aims to drive TVL (target $25M) and on-chain euro settlement; costs: $50k upfront grant and allocation of future token/revenue share to GnosisDAO; community reaction: vote shows early positive support (For 15,069.47; Against 0; Abstain 0; 10 voters) but is far from the 75,000 quorum.
