Three primary components must be in place for the transition: D3M V3, an ALM Controller, and PSM V2. For the D3M V3, at least two additions to V2 will be necessary: * A cash flow manager that handles what to do with profits and losses * Extended protocol reporting covering Net Asset Valuation (NAV), Liquidity Profile, and Capital at Risk (CaR) The purpose of the ALM Controller is to define the system's constraints, such as max total exposure, liquidity, and peg management. Finally, PSM 2.0 must incorporate pooled liquidity, dynamic bonding curves, and algorithmic market operations. > [MIP94: Implement a Feature to Refund People who Lost Money Sending Dai to the Dai Contract Address](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/mip94-implement-a-feature-to-refund-people-who-lost-money-sending-dai-to-the-dai-contract-address/19227) This MIP, prompted by [this post](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/implement-the-feature-to-refund-people-who-lost-money-sending-dai-to-the-dai-address/19223), seeks to enable users to retrieve their funds if they "passively and permanently" lock DAI in the DAI contract by mistakenly sending DAI to the DAI address. > [How Core Units can work through the Endgame Pivot w/Tadeo of Data Insights CU on Drinks w/MakerDAO Delegates](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/how-core-units-can-work-through-the-endgame-pivot-w-tadeo-of-data-insights-cu-on-drinks-w-makerdao-delegates/19191) Once again, the latest episode of Drinks w/MakerDAO Delegates has arrived!
