Add Market: FEI
01Summary
Add FEI (Fei USD algorithmic stablecoin) as a new market on Compound with 0% collateral factor, 25% reserve factor, stablecoin-standard interest rate model, and Chainlink price feed anchored to Uniswap V2.
- Type
- protocol addition
Key changes
- Enable FEI as a supported market on Compound protocol(high)
- Set reserve factor to 25% for FEI market(medium)
- Establish Chainlink price feed anchored to Uniswap V2 FEI/ETH for price discovery(high)
- Set collateral factor to 0% to start(medium)
- Apply stablecoin-standard interest rate model (same as cDAI, cUSDT, cTUSD)(medium)
- No COMP rewards allocated initially(low)
Notable concerns
- FEI is an algorithmic stablecoin which carries different risk profile than traditional stablecoins
- Proposer holds no FEI or TRIBE tokens over past 90 days
- No COMP rewards being allocated at launch may limit initial usage incentives

02Description
Add Market: FEI
Fei USD (FEI) is a highly scalable and decentralized algorithmic stablecoin that utilizes protocol controlled value (PCV) for peg stabilization, while maintaining highly liquid secondary markets. Users can mint FEI from ETH and other bonding curves, while FEI is redeemable at $1 USD (with a 1% fee) for ETH at the peg price.
FEI is governed by TRIBE holders who manage the PCV, backing FEI with a community-owned reserve.
This proposal serves to add a market for Fei USD (FEI) with the following parameters:
- Interest rate model: same as cDAI, cUSDT, and cTUSD (stablecoin standard)
- Collateral factor: 0% (standard to start)
- Reserve factor: 25% (standard)
- Borrow limit: none
- COMP rewards: none (for now, pending a broader discussion)
- Price source: Chainlink reporter anchored to Uniswap V2 FEI/ETH

- FEI and TRIBE held over the past 90 days: none
- Compensation for this proposal: none
- Affiliation to FEI/TRIBE: none
03Mismatch analysis
The proposal describes two core on-chain effects: (1) listing a new cFEI market, and (2) setting its reserve factor to 25%. Both are directly reflected in the decoded calldata: action 0 calls _supportMarket with the cFEI address matching the Etherscan link given in the references, and action 1 sets the reserve factor to 250000000000000000, which equals 25% once converted from 18-decimal fixed point — matching the stated 'Reserve factor: 25% (standard)'. The description also mentions collateral factor (0%), interest rate model, borrow limit, COMP rewards, and price source, none of which appear as separate on-chain actions in this proposal. However, these are standard for Compound market-listing proposals: a 0% collateral factor requires no explicit call since it is the default state for an unconfigured market, and price-feed/interest-rate-model wiring for cTokens is typically handled at cToken deployment time (via constructor parameters) or through the separate Open Oracle system, not through additional governance actions in the same proposal. These omissions are routine implementation details consistent with standard Compound market-addition proposals and not indicative of a mismatch. No numeric, target, or directional discrepancies were found between the prose and the two decoded actions.
