> # Summary
> 
> - This is a proposal to enable one uncapped Balancer gauge for stataOptUSDT/stataOptUSDCn on Optimism.
> - The underlying pool is a Rehype Pool, an extension of Gyroscope’s E-CLPs. Rehype Pools auto-rehypothecate E-CLP assets to Aave and can thus accrue yield from three different sources: (1) Aave lending deposit yield, (2) swap yields from asymmetric concentrated liquidity, and (3) yield from third-party token incentive markets.
> - The pool shall have a swap fee of 0.5 basis points, i.e., 0.005% at pool inception. A protocol fee of 30% will be set upon incentives going live. This may be changed later upon mutual discussion (this is a new Rehype pool type and fees and growth may need to be fine tuned). At pool inception, no fees will go towards Gyroscope.

> # Protocol description
> 
> - stataOptUSDT is the wrapped, static version of the rebasing Aave lending deposit token for aUSDT. - [Aave](https://github.com/bgd-labs/static-a-token-v3)
> - stataOptUSDCn is the wrapped, static version of the rebasing Aave lending deposit token for aUSDC. - [Aave](https://github.com/bgd-labs/static-a-token-v3)

> # Motivation
> 
> Rehype pools reach new efficiency heights while staying simple and therefore safer. Rehype pools embrace a simple, modular design that doesn’t introduce new smart contract code for rehypothecation. Rehype pools thus inherit the security record of E-CLPs.
> 
> The complexity of Rehype pools is handled in the more flexible layers of order routing and front end interface instead of in smart contracts.  
> At the same time, they keep everything transparent on-chain and keep users in control, in contrast to common rehypothecation in TradFi.

> # Specifications
> 
> > ## Governance
> > 
> > The Gyroscope Protocol will be governed by a DAO and relevant stakeholder with the full launch on Ethereum. For now, the FTL Labs multi-sig can pause the pool, change the swap fee and set the protocol fee. As a custom pool by Gyroscope, the E-CLP will be controlled by Gyroscope governance upon its launch.

> > - (allows to control for a price drift from accruing yield by using rate providers to first convert from yield accruing tokens to the underlying)
> > - Reviews for these rate providers can be verified as SAFE [here](https://github.com/balancer/code-review/pull/34/files#diff-5861d38cee7220a0b2672cd05e4233e4058bdc3c7c0d4aa1f7a5e00979bfee8b).
> > 
> > ## Audits
> > 
> > Audit reports by Nethermind, Trail of Bits, and Runtime Verification for the underlying E-CLP can be accessed here (the E-CLP is called the “CEMM” in these reports). In addition, the E-CLP code has been live in production on Polygon since November 2022. ‘Rehype Pools’ are an extension of E-CLP that supports Aave’s statA tokens and outsources much of the complexity of ‘Boosted Pools’ to order routers.

> > ## Centralization vectors
> > 
> > No centralization vectors. The FTL Labs team’s multi-sig can - currently - pause the pool, change the swap fee and set the protocol fee.
> > 
> > ## Market History
> > 
> > The Gyroscope Protocol is live on Ethereum since EOY23, with E-CLPs on several other chains. Details available [here](https://dune.com/gyro_finance/gyroscope-e-clps).
