1/ I've been heads down for the last couple of months and I'm not a very good hype man, but since I'm on break I'll try to describe some of the new things the smart contracts devs have been working on at @MakerDAO this quarter.
2/ The ilk-registry is an iterable registry of the collateral types active in MCD. Use this to discover and access the token, oracle, join, and auction addresses for any given collateral type. Useful for smart contracts or frontends that display collateral https://github.com/makerdao/ilk-registry
3/ Uniswap LP Oracles. The smart contracts team helped out with the new oracles providing the new price feeds for our UNIV2LPDAIETH-A vaults. Then we added LP tokens. Real credit due @nomos_paradox for the heavy lift here. https://github.com/makerdao/univ2-lp-oracle
4/ On September 1st we had 7 collateral types in the MCD system. Today, we're at 22. Welcome COMP, LRC, LINK, YFI, BAL, GUSD, UNI, RenBTC, Aave, UNI ETH/Dai, PAX, and USDT!
http://daistats.com  is getting really crowded.
5/ On September 1st, Dai supply was at 451 million. Today it's at 1.1 billion. To get there, we write new contracts every week in response to governance signals to modify rates, debt ceilings, and make other parameter changes that keep the system humming. https://github.com/makerdao/spells-mainnet
6/ The team developed a library of executive functions for streamlining the spellcrafting and collateral onboarding process. This will make our executive deployment process faster and easier, but more importantly, a lot safer. 🧙‍♂️
7/ Our existing spellcrafting test harness underwent a complete overhaul, with comprehensive tests of precision, authorization, and values. đź§Ş
8/ Code complete on Liquidations 2.0, featuring composibility-friendly dutch-auctions. Imagine buying collateral through a dex aggregator like any other transaction. It's just waiting on three separate external audits. We are not testing this in prod.
10/ We still update the Foundation's hosted changelog page, and we started adding IPFS links and created a static endpoint for accessing contract data https://changelog.makerdao.com/ 
11/ The dss-auto-line contract provides a public function to increase a collateral debt ceiling when it is full or decrease it when it is underutilized. The ETH-B debt ceiling is now dynamic https://github.com/makerdao/dss-auto-line
12/ The Foundation's internal hackathons have produced cool new things like "The Keg", a way for governance to stream payments to contribs; ds-deed, a basic ERC721 implementation that you can use to create NFTs right now; and other stuff the lawyers won't let me tell you about.
13/ The DS-Chief contract was re-deployed with defenses against flash loan attacks. Progress has been made on a complete rewrite of this contract with a grab bag of new features including native delegation, better support for voting on multiple proposals, and vote staking.
14/ We've been working and contracting with community members like @hexonaut and @NazzMass to help with all of the work behind the scenes that goes in to collateral onboarding. These guys are doing great work!
15/ Hired and have started the brutal initiation process that is learning the MCD codebase and our meticulous development process. Welcome to the trenches, @e18r_ and @TannrAllard!
16/ NGL, we're a little tired after that, but we've got the next week off and we're working extra hard to refresh and refuel for 2021. Don't expect to hear from me too much after January, I intend to be back to work building more cool stuff. Someone's gotta pump @nanexcool's bags
