Execute Transactions Onchain

This is the final step. With the market configured and parameters verified, the changes are ready to be pushed to the live blockchain.

The timelock lifecycle​

The protocol enforces a 24-hour timelock on all critical changes, giving lenders and borrowers time to exit if they disagree with a parameter change. Deployment is two distinct actions:

  1. Queue (Propose) — submit the transaction to the Timelock contract. The 24-hour countdown begins.
  2. Execute (Apply) — after the countdown ends, submit a second transaction to apply the changes.

Steps​

Step 1 — Finalize the proposal​

In the curation interface, navigate to your proposal (GIP) page.

  1. Click Finalize GIP — this locks the configuration and prepares the transaction data.
  2. Set the Earliest Execution Date: add at least a 2-hour signing buffer on top of the 24-hour timelock to give multisig signers time to collect signatures.

If last-minute edits are needed, click Reopen for Changes and re-finalize after editing.

Step 2 — Queue the transaction​

The interface generates a link to the Safe App.

  1. Click the link to open the Safe.
  2. Sign and submit the transaction — this initiates the onchain timer.

Step 3 — Execute (after 24 hours)​

Once the timelock expires:

  1. Return to the Safe App.
  2. Sign and submit the final execution transaction.

Deployment complete​

The market is now live on the blockchain.

  • New pools — lenders can deposit assets.
  • New strategies — borrowers can open Credit Accounts.
