Funding for the continued development, testing and deployment of the Yearn V3 system.
For a more detailed description of the vision and end goal of V3, please review the V3 YIP.
Since the last budget request we have officially deployed V3 with production Yearn vaults on mainnet, have continued to steadily grow TVL and grown the external parties building on or with V3.
This budget request is focused on the continued support for all V3 users both within Yearn and external. As well as a primary focus on external partnerships that show an out sized potential impact.
