I'd like to request comment on enabling mint and sync as per Olympus' OIP-93:

Enable minting into liquidity pools to reduce emissions and dilution, and remove the opportunity cost of providing OHM liquidity.

Full disclosure: I ask from a selfish perspective, as a liquidity provider for C3 who is getting totally rekt by Klima dilution while my Klima is unstaked and provided as liquidity. This was my decision and I am not upset. I would like to support C3 by providing more liquidity in the future; however, without a solution to avoid the loss of rebases I cannot accept losing any more KLIMA to do this.

Right now it does not make sense for anyone other than Klima DAO to provide liquidity for carbon paired with Klima, as they'll suffer a guaranteed loss in KLIMA terms. Their only hope of success is to make back the lost KLIMA in trading fees (unlikely) or token rewards (umm plz do not look at the C3 chart).

Implementation of mint and sync will remove this major disincentive and increase liquidity for carbon.

This seems like a no-brainer to me and I imagine that it might even be in the development pipeline?

Yes please implement this feature if possible.

100% support this too. I had a similar opinion to @cascade when providing liquidity for the UBO/Klima and NBO/Klima gauges when C3 went live: accepting the highly probable loss of value via missed rebases from providing Klima for liquidity (which almost certainly wouldn't be recovered by fees) in order to get the protocol up and running.

I would argue this proposal isn't even good just from a personal incentive point of view: for those who wish to provide liquidity into C3 (or create other LPs in the future) using their Klima they have to accept a pretty hefty cost via inflation, meaning it is unlikely there will be significant growth in Liquidity Pools beyond what Klima (as the source of the Protocol Owned Liquidity) directs, without it. Further the experience of those individuals who do provide liquidity and are not experts in POL (and who realise the impact of rebases on unstaked Klima at a later date) might not share a positive story about their experience.

While tokenisation of VCM credits is paused and the Klima AKR relatively low at present the impact of not having minting, for now, is limited. However, next year if tokenisation restarts, it is highly likely (at least from my point of view) that the AKR will start to increase as bridging restarts, which will increase the impact of not having implemented minting.
