This proposal seeks to grant Osmosis address [osmo1805uk7zjne6rkrge955a3e7cg76f3lx72ndzppn9dxeypwgkqlvqt2fzr5](https://daodao.zone/dao/osmo1805uk7zjne6rkrge955a3e7cg76f3lx72ndzppn9dxeypwgkqlvqt2fzr5/home) the ability to upload CosmWasm contracts to Osmosis without requiring governance approval for each contract upload. The address is controlled by the Osmosis Foundation.

## About Osmosis Foundation

Osmosis Foundation is a core contributor to the Osmosis blockchain and tooling for Cosmos.

Previous contract uploads approved by governance brought forward by the Osmosis Foundation have included the following:

- [Swap Router](https://daodao.zone/gov/osmosis/proposals/633) and linked contracts, which provide a framework for crosschain swaps to occur.
- [Affiliate Swaps](https://daodao.zone/gov/osmosis/proposals/603), Allowing integrators using Osmosis liquidity to generate affiliate fees for swaps.
- [Transmuter Contract](https://daodao.zone/gov/osmosis/proposals/659), Allowing 1:1 conversion of one asset to another independent of the ratio provided.

**Contracts to be Deployed**

This proposal allows the Osmosis Foundation to upload contracts as updates of previously uploaded contracts and discretionary uploads of future contracts that improve the tooling and applications available on Osmosis.

**Target Onchain Date** : 21st April 2024

I assume (and sincerely hope) that the Osmosis Foundation will not upload malicious content to the chain, so this proposal should be more like a formality than anything else.

Great. I hope to read from every other validator how they voted, too.
