Hey @tom, all really good points here:
This has been discussed multiple times, and it looks like our community is going that way – this might be an interesting initiative that the Pilot League can take care of.
If you want to see the current status of it, check these posts:
This would be useful, I got feedback from some other users that were asking to allow them to vote with yet-to-be-claimed $IDLE tokens – I think it’s relatively easy to do for Snapshot pools, but having multiple whitelisted tokens for on-chain proposals would require a change in Idle Governance module.
This might be an interesting feature once a staking system is in place – my only thought here is that auto-staking still requires making a tx, so it’s not that straightforward as you would need to have someone triggering this automation and paying for the gas cost.
This still depends on ETH network congestion and deposited amount, but we can set up a batched system for redeems (now available for deposits, with a ~25% gas reduction) to ease the gas burden for our users.
