# [Proposal] Whitelist DFX Finance Gnosis Safe for Balancer’s VotingEscrow

### Introduction

Whitelist the DFX Finance Gnosis Safe multisig, to vote-lock B-80BAL-20WETH owned by the DFX Finance community into veBAL and participate in governance for the Balancer DAO.

### Motivation

DFX Finance is a decentralized foreign exchange (FX) protocol that facilitates the seamless exchange of fiat-backed stablecoins denominated in a growing number of currencies. We are prepared to engage with the Balancer ecosystem in a meaningful way, and would like to participate in governance and incentivizing liquidity to flow through Balancer.

### Risks

DFX Finance’s multisig signers recognise the risk of allowing smart contacts to vote-lock veBAL, and commits to not using this safe for tokenizing veBAL. We understand that doing so will likely prompt the removal of the safe’s address from the AllowList.

### Specification

Whitelist the DFX Finance Gnosis Safe multisig, 0xE2F6a36Eb4D968e49b127B3dd06A9595F82dcC1b, to interact with the veBAL contract.

Nothing like locking to show long term commitment. I’m in support!
