Summary
Amend the optimistic rewards framework to account for external tokens grants.
Background
The goal of this proposal is to ensure that the Morpho Association is well positioned to apply for and coordinate the distribution of external grants which are allocated by external parties to the Morpho DAO’s rewards multisig, which may have distribution requirements imposed such as blacklisting specific addresses, targeting distribution to certain assets, or a specific time period for disbursal.
As it stands, the optimistic rewards framework does not provide a clear mandate for the handling of such external grants.
Detail
The Morpho Association proposes that the DAO authorize the Morpho Association to manage the distribution of non-MORPHO incentives grants received by the DAO from third parties, as well as to apply for such grants on behalf of the DAO. If approved, allocations of non-MORPHO third party incentive grants may be carried out at the discretion of the Morpho Association, allowing us to conform to partner requirements as well as taking an agile approach to incentives distribution of external token grants in new chain ecosystems.
This does not in any way authorize the Morpho Association to take possession of granted tokens or to use them for other expenditures.
