OIP-23 Audit for critical contracts

metac0rtex

Security is very important if we want mainstream adoption. We don't want to be on the news for all the wrong reasons so I think this makes sense. Thanks, team.

Fully agreed. If the experience is positive from both sides we can check how we can set something up in a more structural manner.

40% is being paid in OHM, are they under any obligation to hold for a set period?

Wallace900402

hippopotamus tbh, even if they sell the 80k worth of OHM all at once, it won't affect the price by that much anyway. We see too many tx larger than that on a daily basis. It's really nothing.

Let's Go!

The security of this protocol is non-negotiable. This should receive 100% approval. Thank you team for your diligence and hard work.

This is important I say do it, as long as it doesn’t hasten another rate reduction vote.

BackfireCapital

Easy "for" vote. OHM security is of utmost importance.

Vanadio

Are they worse or better than trail of bits? At any rate, I’m for. Also for a future framework to have these things automagically set up.

I am For the audit. But… paying an auditing company in OHM… isn't there a potential for it to be construed as biased? It's like a public company paying an auditor with company shares. YesI agree you could argue that would make the auditor more invested in making sure the company is compliant, and why would they risk their reputation anyway? But hey sillier things have happened. If one of the bigwigs in the auditing company is short sighted they may decide to give OHM a sparkling review, get paid, watch the coin pump, then dump. Just a thought

GT_AnimE

Kutu2 unfortunately the dumps even happen in the stock market all the time. I don’t know what other forms of payment we could provide it’s all convertible at the end of the day. If it’s paid in 100% Dai they could buy up OHm anyways then dump when it goes up.

purefissure

All for it. Things need to get done, and as Cart. said we’ll probably need a better framework going forward to give the community some expectations and assurances for such occurrences like this one.

Did the auditors request OHM or this is being offered to them as a payment?

crayon_connoisseur

This is the only audit I’m happy about

FattyBagz

Anything to reinforce the security of the protocol. I support this proposal/audit 1000%.

PorkChop

Audits only add to the credibility. Bring them on.

SurfingChanticleer

I agree with the need for an audit as it is a sound risk management practice. Personally, there should be a budget allotted for audits as necessary. Also what is the current practice in the DAO for engaging third parties?

kpx

I agree audits should be done on a regular basis as is done with accounting practices

tigerlily

cryptocartesius Yeah I love the idea of making this a standard practice that we undertake as Olympus develops more products and integrates with more protocols.

tigerlily

The security of the protocol and all the Ohmie's hard earned funds is paramount. We also don't ever want to be "that" protocol that suffered an exploit that harmed users from other integrated protocols. If we have the budget for this, $200k is nothing in comparison to Olympus' reputation being tarnished and Ohmie's OHMs getting messed with.

btong

tigerlily perfectly put!
