Creating an asset listing proposal

The following guide will walk you through the process of adding a new token as a whitelisted currency to be deposited/borrowed in the Aave protocol.
1. Complete the the off-chain process
Details of the off-chain process, including completing the ARC and starting the AIP, can be found in the Governance Docs. 
2. Prepare for the on-chain process
1. Create a Pull Request with your token parameters
fork from the protocol-v2 [email protected]​
add your token addresses to markets/aave/index.ts 
create your reserve parameters inside markets/aave/reservesConfigs.ts 
update the types to include your token in /helpers/types 
add the current price in the MOCK_CHAINLINK_AGGREGATORS_PRICES object in markets/aave/commons.ts 
create a PR with your changes
An example PR can be found here​
2. Run the asset deployment script
From the protocol-v2 repository, 
 $ npm install
$ SYMBOL="Your Symbol" npm run external:deploy-assets-kovan to deploy on kovan
$ SYMBOL="Your Symbol" npm run external:deploy-assets-main to deploy on mainnet
This will deploy the following contracts and display the addresses:
AToken
variableDebt 
stableDebt 
InterestRateStrategy
You will need them for the last step.
3. Make a proposal to the Aave Governance to initialize your assets
Get your AIP IPFS hash here​
Deploy the on-chain proposal following the instruction from the asset listing repository​
4. Follow up
You will need to connect with Aave Genesis team, to add your token price oracle as a source.
