[BIP-50] Set Protocol Fee on Yield

Motivation

As part of the recent development efforts into the new composable stable pool and weighted pool factories a new mechanism for adding existing and future types of protocol fees has been designed called the ProtocolFeePercentagesProvider. The first new type of protocol fee has been added for the protocol fee on yield, which will determine the percentage of yield the protocol takes as a fee on tokens like wstETH and bbaUSD.

Given that the protocol fee is currently set to 50% I propose also initiating the protocol fee on yield to 50%. Governance can freely adjust this percentage in the future as with any other protocol fee.

Note that the existing metastable pools like wstETH, rETH, maticX, and stMATIC do not make any distinction between swap fee and yield fee - a 50% protocol fee is applied no matter the source of the income.

yup, sure, let’s do it. This is important for the future of Balancer.

Important piece of the core pool puzzle. People will be blown away by how much fees we can generate for them and the DAO (incl bribes). No brainer!

I think thats a pretty good proposal, in support to maximize revenues of the DAO

In favor of this. We need to utilize these methods to make more revenue for the DAO and be sustainable.

FYI updated to include the specification for L2’s

That’s too much, man!

50% is in-line with today. only difference here is we will be able to toggle it in the future.

Makes sense, I support it

@solarcurve your technical explanation of the steps that will happen is phenomenal. Thanks very much

What do you mean by this? Are you implying governance has no power to change the protocol swap fee?

No, sorry im saying that we arent changing anything from the current environment with this rollout. Ofc it can be changed by govenance in the future, i didnt want people to freak out that we were introducing a new fee.
