Outcomes

If the votes for the 'Yes' option exceed the votes for the 'No' option then the following actions will be taken:

• USDC.e (Bridged Circle USDC) will be onboarded to Spark Protocol Gnosis via a future executive vote.
• It is expected that this executive vote will take place within 30 days of this poll passing, absent external factors.
• If the executive vote passes, then these changes will become active in Spark Protocol after the GSM Pause Delay has expired.

If the votes for the 'No' option equal or exceed the votes for the 'Yes' option then no further action will be taken at this time.
