On behalf of the Balancer community, I’d like to propose the following modifications to the token whitelist used for BAL governance token distribution. All new tokens will be placed at `cap1` ($1M) as described in the [updated whitelist proposal](https://forum.balancer.fi/t/proposal-to-update-the-whitelist-process/217). At any time, community members may propose on the forum to increase a token’s cap to the next tier. As a reminder, these whitelist proposals are pre-approved on objective technical criteria, so they are not subject to community vote. To suggest a token for inclusion in one of these proposals, please use the #token-requests channel in the [Balancer Discord](https://discord.gg/ARJWaeF). Requested tokens will be vetted in a single batch each Friday, to take effect the following Monday. The official instructions and listing criteria can be found [here](https://docs.balancer.finance/core-concepts/bal-liquidity-mining/exchange-and-reward-listing). For reference, the active whitelist can be found [here](https://github.com/balancer-labs/assets/blob/master/lists/eligible.json). Note that the additions suggested within this proposal are unlikely to appear on the official list until a few days after publication. Also see the [original motivation](https://forum.balancer.fi/t/proposing-the-token-whitelist-for-bal-distribution) for creating the whitelist. # Proposed Modifications I would like to propose adding the following new tokens to the whitelist: ``` ADD GDT 0xc67B12049c2D0CF6e476BC64c7F82fc6C63cFFc5 ADD NFTFY 0xBf6Ff49FfD3d104302Ef0AB0F10f5a84324c091c ADD OIL 0x0275E1001e293C46CFe158B3702AADe0B99f88a5 ADD sAMZN 0x9CF7E61853ea30A41b02169391b393B901eac457 ADD sFB 0xf50B5e535F62a56A9BD2d8e2434204E726c027Fa ADD sGOOG 0xC63B8ECCE56aB9C46184eC6aB85e4771fEa4c8AD ADD sNFLX 0x5A7E3c07604EB515C16b36cd51906a65f021F609 ``` The proposed changes will go into effect at 00:00 UTC on Monday, May 10. Whitelisted tokens will _not_ be added to the Balancer exchange UI; the core team adds tokens to the official exchange UI at their own discretion and considers a variety of factors. Tokens can always be traded using contract addresses in place of symbols, and anyone is free to fork the open source exchange UI to add more symbols. # Resulting Soft/Hard Pegs The following price pegs will be added to the BAL mining scripts in response to the whitelist changes. At time of writing, soft pegs receive a `wrapFactor` of 0.2 and hard pegs receive a `wrapFactor` of 0.1. For reference, please see the [`wrapFactor` proposal](https://forum.balancer.fi/t/modifying-wrapfactor-applying-a-0-7-factor-to-soft-pegged-pairs/108). There are no new price pegs introduced this week. # Omissions Some requested tokens were omitted this week. The following token does not return a boolean on `transfer()`, which is a violation of Whitelist Criterion #2: _The token must conform to the ERC-20 interface described in EIP-20. Namely, the functions `transfer()`, `transferFrom()`, and `approve()` must return booleans._ ``` OMIT XYO 0x55296f69f40Ea6d20E478533C15A6B08B654E758 Bad transfer ```
