Yes, there is no debate as to if we are doing an upgrade that will allow for this. We will be doing this upgrade.
The question is when. You can see all the tasks we have to get done in the comment I made above. But essentially it boils done to doing the contract upgrades safely. The last thing we want to do is rush the upgrade and break the contracts.
Rest assured this is the top priority on the smart contract team right now. Here is our progress:
- Write the smart contract upgrade - Draft version is done
- Set up a robust upgrade procedure for safe upgrades - Not done
- Get the testnet up and running to test the upgrade - 75% done
- Test the upgrade for a few days, or maybe a week. Whatever is needed to build confidence - Not done
- Send proposal to council & get it approved - Not done but will be very quick
- Upgrade on mainnet
