End the BAL for Gas Program
This proposal also appears on Balancer’s forum.
Background
The BAL for Gas initiative was introduced as a measure to entice and help users interested in trading ERC-20 tokens through the Balancer trading platform.
The introduction of the Gnosis partnership, however, will allow users to trade without requiring ETH for gas, so the gas reimbursement program becomes obsolete.
The initial proposal by @rabmarut can be found here. The V2 Bal for Gas proposal by @rabmarut can be found here.
Core Proposal
Given the conditions outlined above, I propose stopping this initiative with immediate effect.
Risk Assessment
The halting of this program might result in a reduction in trading activity, from those first-time users not familiar with Balancer inner mechanisms (claiming function and Gnosis).
