As we wrap up April in the Lazy Summer ecosystem, I’m excited to bring you governance roundup—a month marked by momentum, meaningful debates, and forward-looking proposals across both the [**Forum**](https://forum.summer.fi) and [**Tally**](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/lazy-summer-dao-official/proposals). We’re building more than DeFi vaults. We’re curating a composable, risk-aware system for sustainable yield. Let’s dive in.
This month, we have engaged in eight Requests for Comments (RFCs), continuing to shape Summer’s evolving strategy.
### **Notable RFCs:**
- [**[RFC] Onboarding OETH & OUSD**](https://forum.summer.fi/t/rfc-onboard-origin-protocol-s-oeth-and-ousd-as-new-arks-within-the-mainnet-eth-and-mainnet-usdt-vaults-on-lazy-summer-protocol/159) (April 10th)

### SIPs in Focus:
Governance this month wasn’t just talk—we saw eight **Summer Improvement Proposals (SIPs)** launched to formalize forum discussions and consequently pushed to an onchain vote:
- [**[SIP2.3]** **Onboard Moonwell’s USDC & EURC Arks** ](https://forum.summer.fi/t/sip2-3-onboard-moonwell-usdc-and-eurc-arks/155) (April 2th)

### Tally Votes:
April saw seven governance votes completed on [**Tally**](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/lazy-summer-dao-official), translating ideas into action:
- [**SIP2.3: Moonwell Arks Deployment**](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/lazy-summer-dao-official/proposal/109457050255389590463843837472769961891441933289835466758273678072655053829550)
- [**SIP2.4: Add Arks to LowerRisk\_USDCe**](https://forum.summer.fi/t/sip2-4-onboard-additional-silo-arks-into-the-usdc-e-sonic-vault/167)
- [**SIP1.3: Higher Risk ETH Vault (Mainnet)**](https://forum.summer.fi/t/sip1-3-onboard-higher-risk-eth-vault-on-mainnet/170)
- [**SIP1.4: Lower Risk ETH Vault (Base)**](https://www.notion.so/1488cbaf47f8802cb3b1e5a9294903ef?pvs=21)
- [**SIP2.7: Integrating sUSDS on Arbitrum**](https://forum.summer.fi/t/sip2-7-integrate-susds-ark-into-arbitrum-usdc-vault/191) (April 28th)
- [**SIP5.4: Admiral Quarters**](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/lazy-summer-dao-official/proposal/79597784197043747723805732589854156980791840210743237213537693327432068147601) (April 30th)
- **[SIP3.3: Staking Rewards Extension](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/lazy-summer-dao-official/proposal/11942013457951860895293003928268684677458330386377717173519607029162645237959)** (April 30th)
With these approvals, the Lazy Summer fleet grows stronger across **Mainnet, Base** , and **cross-chain deployments**. Vault strategies are more diverse, with improved exposure across **stablecoins, and ETH risk tranches**.

This month showed a strong appetite for innovation, strategy refinement, and deeper Lazy ecosystem integration. From extending SUMR incentives to deploying new ARKs (strategies) and FLEETs (vaults), the governance process is progressing—and it’s powered by **YOU** , the Lazy Summer Protocol community. Stay active, stay informed, and as always—stay Lazy!
See you on the [forum](https://forum.summer.fi); your friendly green blob.

GM @jensei and [@Recognized\_Delegates](https://forum.summer.fi/groups/recognized_delegates) we discussed holding a governance call every other week to further discussions and community building. We’d be happy to facilitate that.\<
Ideally this would happen as X spaces. Spaces allow interested outsiders to participate, ask questions and get closer to the Summer ecosystem.
They are also automatically recorded which allows those who can’t participate to listen in later.
Would there be interest in doing this?

For those who voted yes, which timeframe would be good:

Thanks for voicing this out @rspa_StableLab – I am in support, and casted my vote now. I agree doing this via **X spaces** as it seems like a best bet in terms of reach and the recording of sessions.
I have been playing with an idea of bi-weekly spaces with delegates and/or guests from within DeFi/Yield/DAO ecosystem.
I would propose program to include intro, DAO recap (2w), and delegate thoughts on the proposals (both RFCs and SIPs). We could also explore any future interests and endevours for the DAO, followed by open AMA.
