## rETH Slippage for IMC - continued maintenance

### Who is the proposed retrospective award recipient?

@ramana

### What specific project or work is the retrospective award in recognition of? Please detail what the project or work entailed and the duration over which it took place.

This is a continuation of [RA032302](https://dao.rocketpool.net/t/july-2023-gmc-call-for-retrospective-award-applications-deadline-is-july-15th/1938/3). The original work was for the creation and assumed some unspecified maintenance period. It talked about it being a worthy spend at $1k running for a year or so. The GMC chose to reward $1250.

It has been running since 5/2023 and the previous retro was granted 7/2023. I would suggest paying out a retro with the goal of covering through 9/2025. It would also be hoped that other chains could be added if they supported the same interface (ie, no new creative work).

### Are the subjects of this award entirely open source ([MIT](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT), [GPL](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.en.html), [Apache](https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0), [CC BY](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) license or similar)? If not, which parts will not be, why, and under what license will they be published?

## Benefit

The main direct beneficiaries are IMC members, who use this info to make decisions. This indirectly creates an impact for rETH holders via liquidity and RPL holders via a healthier protocol.

## Costs

### How much USD $ is the applicant requesting be awarded to the recipient?

$1k.

If we assume the first covered a year (which was not explicitly said at all ofc), then this is lower than the last grant b/c it doesn’t include creation (and note that it does cover slightly more time).

### Is the applicant requesting RPL or LUSD?

RPL

## Conflict of Interest

### Does the person or persons requesting the retrospective award have any conflicts of interest to disclose? (Please disclose here if you are a member of the GMC or if you have nominated a member of the GMC for this retrospective award).

I’m a member of the IMC and use this a good bit.
