02Description
Refresh Polygon COMP
This is a repost of Proposal 158, given that the proposal failed to reach quorum. More discussions can be found on this forum thread.
Explanation
Since the launch of cUSDCv3 on Polygon mainnet a month ago, the market has grown steadily and proven to be in good order. The initial seeding of rewards only provisioned enough for a few months, as a conservative starting point. Now is a good time to renew the COMP rewards going to the market.
This proposal bridges an additional 12,500 COMP to sustain the current rewards speeds of the market for an additional year (approximately).
Proposal
The proposal itself is to be made from this pull request.
The first action approves the transfer of COMP by the Polygon bridge contract.
The second action triggers the transfer across the bridge to the rewards contract.

- Refresh COMP Rewards on Polygon ↗discourse · high confidence
Arguments for
- Topping up COMP rewards prevents service disruption for existing Polygon users while the community discusses distribution improvements.— kevin
- Polygon has a large active DeFi ecosystem with sufficient user base and market conditions to support Compound's growth if given adequate resources.— animatus
- Refreshing the reward supply is necessary to maintain continuity of the distribution mechanism that users depend on.— kevin, Mayagy
Arguments against
- Current borrow distribution APR of 9.3% versus 4.9% borrow APR is excessive and not effectively attracting new users to the market.— Sirokko
- The Polygon market lacks sufficient USDC supply to attract borrowers, making the current reward structure ineffective regardless of quantity.— nlord, animatus
Unresolved concerns
- Whether the proposed top-up should be conditional on or accompanied by restructuring the emission mechanism to allocate more rewards to supply-side incentives.— Sirokko, nlord, Michigan_Blockchain
- What the optimal balance is between borrow and supply distributions on Polygon to maximize market growth without overpaying.— Sirokko
- Whether current reward levels will actually be effective in growing the market or if distribution adjustments must precede or accompany the top-up.— Sirokko, nlord
