What is an IIP?

An IIP is a proposal to update some function or standard within the Index Coop. IIPs can vary widely from proposing new Index products, to requesting funds from the Index Treasury, to performing Index Coop smart contract upgrades. The IIP proposal process largely follows the same behavior as Ethereum's EIP process.

The most up to date status on every IIP can be found in this github repository.​

If you would like to submit a proposal to the Index Coop, check out the more detailed IIP contribution guide here.​
