Update on PIP-55: First On-Chain Gas Refund Distribution Live!
As mentioned in our previous post, the first stage of the PIP-55 implementation is underway.
Thanks to the collaboration between @Laita Labs, UMA, and WakeUp Labs, we’ve successfully proposed the first automated, trustless distribution for the Gas Refund Program:
-
The distribution amounts were independently calculated by both Laita and WakeUp Labs — and matched.
-
WakeUp Labs pushed this data to Snapshot via a custom script. With UMA’s support, the proposal now triggers an on-chain transaction to automatically execute the distribution.
-
Laita and GovCo no longer need to manually sign or transfer funds — it’s fully automated.
Snapshot + oSnap Proposal (Epoch 29):
This marks the first time the DAO, not individuals, validates and approves a Gas Refund distribution.
What about the Rewards Distribution?
The Rewards proposal will go live on Monday as the UMA team was fixing a minor UI issue between Snapshot and oSnap found during the creation of the Rewards proposal.
