Among the cornerstones of blockchain ecosystems, Ethereum has redefined thoughts about decentralized technologies. As a leading blockchain platform, Ethereum allows for the creation of smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps) that operate without third-party interference.

However, the proposal also seems to include assets that aren’t included in the ‘Treasury’ wallet listed on the governance page for SushiSwap.
