## :fire: **CURRENT EVENTS** <!-- Alec -->

#### [**Coinbase MIP81 Q&A and followup discussion**](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/coinbase-mip81-live-call-with-coinbase-cfo-questions-needed-asap/18007/12)

Under the terms of MIP81, 33% -- or around 1.6 billion -- 
USDC would be transferred from the PSM into Coinbase custody. The DAO would then be eligible to earn USDC rewards via the exchange.  

These rewards are estimated to provide up to 1.5% APY, netting the protocol a theoretical 24 million in annual revenue. Due to the nature of the proposed partnership, community sentiment appears to be split. 

In response, Coinbase CFO, [**Alesia Haas**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alesia-haas-b776531/), joined GovAlpha for a live Q&A regarding the polarizing [**proposal**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W7medDj6Z8). 

The call was allotted a 30-minute time slot, and only pre-screened questions were answered. It's worth noting that while this may not be the meeting we've come to expect in Web3, the format is common practice in traditional business. 

Myriad community members posed several excellent questions, but due to time constraints, only a handful was addressed in detail. 

*A full transcription of the call, provided by @Artem_Gordon, can be [**found here.**](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/coinbase-mip81-cfo-community-questions-monday-september-26/18037/14)*

#### **@TRUEMAKER breaks it down into digestible bytes.**

A summary will be provided below, but the post can be read in its entirety [**via this link.**](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/coinbase-mip81-cfo-community-questions-monday-september-26/18037/15)

#### [**Endgame Plan: Diagram of the Scopes and ecosystem**](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/endgame-plan-diagram-of-the-scopes-and-ecosystem/18139)

In this edition of the Endgame breakdown, @rune provides additional information about the scope and scale of the re-envisioned Maker ecosystem. 

The Endgame Plan identifies three broad categories of actors: 

1. **The Scopes** remain closest to the "Maker Core."
2. **MetaDAOs** function as semi-independent DAOs
3. **Ecosystem Actors** are entirely independent companies, individuals, or DAOs that provide service to Maker Core or its MetaDAOs. 

<small>**What's a Scope, and what does it do?**</small>

Scopes detail and standardize how the various actors communicate and collaborate. 

They primarily function to maintain the "immutability" that is critical to the success of the Endgame plan and "Maker's long-term survival."

> "The 11 Scopes are split into Primary Scopes and Supporting Scopes.
>
> The Primary Scopes are the activities that help grow and sustain Maker. They include Protocol Engineering, Decentralized Collateral, RWA Collateral, and Growth."

These scopes are covered in depth by three groups: 

1. Decentralized Voter Committee
2. Governor Councils
3. Tribunals

*Primary Scopes* are large entities with a litany of available resources. As a marked "separation of powers," these actors remain separate from the "Councils" that define the Scope Framework.

These Councils are composed of representatives from all Governer MetaDAOs. 

<small>**Summarized Workflow**</small>

**Step 1:** DVCs, Delegates, and Council agree on a Scope Framework. As an example, this could specify the process used to determine when it is worth it to deploy a new Synthetic Asset, such as EuroDai, and the steps that need to be followed when deploying a Synthetic Asset in accordance with best practice.

**Step 2:** With the Scope Framework in place, the Core Units now have clear guidance on when and how to initiate the deployment of a new Synthetic Asset and how to determine which contributor (MetaDAO or Ecosystem Actor) that should be paid to carry out the work.

**Step 3:** The last step is to construct the Executive vote that activates the new Synthetic Asset and wait for the MKR holders and Delegates to vote it through

> "Fully specified processes like this example onboarding of a Synthetic Asset must be developed for each process in all 11 Scopes. 
> 
> Having the processes specified in the greatest detail possible prevents the risk of a grey area uncertainty becoming a beachhead for complexity expansion and scope creep."

<br> <!-- this is a break, which adds an empty line to make it easier to read the bullet points -->

- *PROXY_ACTIONS_END_CROPPER* Address Update
    - As per this [post](https://forum.makerdao.com/t/28th-september-executive-updating-the-proxy-actions-end-cropper-address/18057) from the Protocol Engineering Core Unit Facilitator @Derek, the address for PROXY_ACTIONS_END_CROPPER will be updated to [0x38f7C166B5B22906f04D8471E241151BA45d97Af](https://etherscan.io/address/0x38f7C166B5B22906f04D8471E241151BA45d97Af).
- As per this [governance poll](https://vote.makerdao.com/polling/QmbWkTvW#poll-detail), the deposit limit for the Starknet bridge will be raised from 50 DAI to **1,000 DAI**.

The amount being transferred is lower than the initially requested amount due to a reduction in the number of FTEs working for RWF-001.
