IIP Number: 156  
Title: Deprecate IIP-154: Fund Gitcoin GR14 with $50,000 USDC  
Status: Proposed  
Author(s): @mel.eth  
Created: 08 June 2022  
Requires [IIP-154](https://gov.indexcoop.com/t/iip-154-fund-gitcoin-gr14-with-50-000-usdc/4259)

## Simple Summary

‌This proposal reverses course on IIP-154 in light of budgetary concerns raised subsequent to passage.  
‌

## Abstract

‌We propose that IIP-154 NOT be executed as currently required and instead no action be taken (effectively canceling IIP-154).

‌

## Motivation

‌While community sentiment was positive, budgetary concerns have caused a shift in execution appetite subsequent to passage of IIP-154. This proposal aims to give the community an opportunity to reconsider the $50,000 USDC spend in light of runway concerns.

## Specification

Do not execute IIP-154 as currently prescribed by the positive vote and instead deprecate IIP-154 unexecuted.

## ‌Voting‌

**FOR:** DEPRECATE IIP-154 and DO NOT DONATE $50,000 in Gitcoin GR14

**AGAINST:** DO NOTHING and LEAVE IIP-154 UNCHANGED AND DONATE $50,000 in Gitcoin GR14

Despite voting in favor of IIP-154 and upon second considerations, revoking IIP-154 makes a lot more sense given current market conditions

We will be supporting this vote to depreciate IIP-154
