[IIP-35] - Update Liquidity Mining, Best Yield USDC and USDT yield sources and transfer budget for M2-2023

Authors

Treasury League and Development League

Summary

This IIP aims to update the IDLE incentives distribution of the Liquidity Mining program. The proposal also focuses on updating the USDC and USDT Senior Best Yield’s underlying markets by adding Clearpool’s Portofino (USDC) and Fasanara (USDT) Yield Tranches.

Rationale

1. $IDLE incentives distribution update v3

2. Clearpool YTs as a new yield source for USDC BY - Portofino

3. Clearpool YTs as a new yield source for USDT BY - Fasanara

After the recent exploit on Euler, Leagues have suggested removing the Euler Yield Tranches from the basket of yield source of Best Yield strategies as a precautionary measure before a new audit is completed.

The current yield source of the Best Yield strategies would then be:

Strategy Token Underlying markets
Senior BY DAI Aave, Compound, Euler
Junior BY DAI Euler, Morpho

These proposals aim to add new Clearpool Yield Tranches to the Senior Best Yield vaults on USDC and USDT:

  1. Clearpool USDC (Portofino) YTs, with specs available on GitHub here
  2. Clearpool USDT (Fasanara) YTs, with specs available on GitHub here

4. Leagues M2-2023 Expected Budget
