Hey @notnotseven. Appreciate you push this forward again, we are open to DAO decision on operations and this will be also increased over time, but these allegations need additional evidence/analysis for a course of action.

We need more quantitative analysis and evidence, for the community in here and for financial forensics.

For this I request you to refine the proposal with tangible evidence in the “Problem” section:

- Quantitative or qualitative evidence on manipulation in general DIA pairs, and specific pairs if assumed
- Evidence of specific Market Maker DEX on-chain/CEX trading activity, including links, timestamps, order book snapshots, your analysis of assumed market manipulation.

We will review this, potentially include on-chain forensic experts and assess the evidence.

We have a good working relationship with our Market Maker and are not cancelling partners due to generic allegations, but if there are facts underpinning this, action will follow - we take the community/DAO input seriously.

Thanks
