Having [expressed interest](https://community.agoric.com/t/liquid-staking-token-vaults-statom-stkatom-qatom-etc/346) in LST vaults for ATOM, I am happy to see this proposal! I have been testing the `addVault` proposal flow with some help from @dckc. The proposal includes adding stATOM to vbank, creating an oracle/price feed, and adding a new vault collateral type. We are testing on [ollinet](https://ollinet.agoric.net/) and (soon) [devnet](https://devnet.agoric.net/), and coordinating in [this repo](https://github.com/0xpatrickdev/agoric-vault-collateral-proposal/) and the [#dev](https://discord.com/channels/585576150827532298/1136379433566085132) and [#devnet](https://discord.com/channels/585576150827532298/766738012380856343) Discord channels. One testing flow involves a fake ibc\_denom (“toy\_statom”) and another using the real denom / live ibc channel. Devnet validators - we’ll probably reach out via discord to coordinate a voting on the proposal. @Kristaps_Jahimovics - thanks for setting up the ibc channel! If any validators run both Agoric Devnet and Stride (Devnet?) validators, it may be worthwhile to set up a relayer for more thorough testing. If the Stride team has guidance in this area (getting “real” test stuatom) or would like to coordinate - that would be greatly appreciated! --- _[View the full topic](https://community.agoric.com/t/onboard-statom-as-collateral/410)._
