Welcome back to another quick check-in on all things Aura from the past couple of weeks.

EURA - PAR: 104.1% [Ethereum] - https://app.aura.finance/#/1/pool/211

ACX - wstETH: 99.6% [Ethereum] - https://app.aura.finance/#/1/pool/60

GHO - USDC: 27.9% [Ethereum] - https://app.aura.finance/#/1/pool/195

WETH - wrsETH: 25.5% [Optimism] - https://app.aura.finance/#/10/pool/24

AaveUSDT - USDT: 24.7% [Arbitrum] - https://app.aura.finance/#/42161/pool/57

In the most recent epoch, total voting incentives increased to $397k. This resulted in >50% APR for vlAURA voters and $1.08 in emissions for every $1 spent by protocols.

New Gauges:

[BIP-614] Enable ZRS/ETH gauge [Ethereum]

[BIP-615] Enable gauge for USDC/GYD & USDT/GYD [zkEVM]

[BIP-616] Enable gauge for sDAI/aUSDC Rehype pool [Gnosis]

[BIP-618] Enable D2D/GYD 80/20 Gauge [Arbitrum]

[BIP-619] Enable Gauge for sUSDe/wstETH [Ethereum]

Other Governance:

[BIP-617] Request for BAL to reward UI beta testers

As always, you can find more information on any of the individual proposals via Aura's Snapshot page.

The best opportunities in DeFi are often slightly off the beaten path. This couldn’t be more evident than with the combination of @0xPolygon zkEVM, Balancer, Gyroscope, and Aura.

Did you know that there’s constant buying pressure on auraBAL?

Remember that Aura takes a 22.5% fee on all BAL earned from LPs? The majority of that, 18%, goes into auraBAL staking via the compounder.

One month after UST depegged, amid Celcius freezing withdrawals, days before ETH hit $880, weeks before 3AC's insolvency, and months before FTX collapsed — that's when Aura launched.

To celebrate Aura's 2nd bday, let's revisit the best of CT during that brutal week.
