Description
Summary
This proposal requests Council approval to implement GIP-0076: Issuance Allocator contract to split issuance across distribution targets.
The Issuance Allocator introduces a governance-configurable contract that splits total GRT issuance across multiple protocol targets, laying the foundation for the economic upgrades outlined in GIP-0070.
Context
Today, all protocol issuance flows to the Rewards Manager. As The Graph expands beyond indexing rewards into indexing payments and other distribution mechanisms, a single monolithic issuance path limits flexibility.
GIP-0076 delivers an iterative step: new distribution mechanisms can operate alongside existing systems under fixed, governance-set proportions, with future iterations enabling self-balancing.
Key Components
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Total Issuance | Preserves existing per-block issuance rate |
| Target Types | Self-minting (e.g. Rewards Manager) and allocator-minting |
| Access Control | GOVERNOR_ROLE for rate and allocation changes, PAUSE_ROLE for emergency |
| Operational Safety | Pause and accumulation mechanisms, target removal, gas-limit recovery |
| Backward Compatibility | When allocator address is unset, Rewards Manager behaves as today |
