Assets with authorization or clawback flags are excluded from market voting and rewards unless governance grants an exception.
By default, some Stellar assets are restricted from participating in Aquarius market voting and rewards.
These assets have specific flags set by their issuers, which impose restrictions on holding, sending, and trading. In the case of clawback, issuers can even reclaim tokens from holders.
Assets that have any combination of the AUTH_REQUIRED, AUTH_REVOCABLE, or AUTH_CLAWBACK_ENABLED flags are banned from Aquarius market voting and rewards, as decided by the Aquarius governance process under Proposal 85.
AUTH_REQUIRED – the issuing account must approve other accounts before they can hold the asset.
AUTH_REVOCABLE – the issuing account can revoke an asset's trustline, preventing accounts from accessing it.
AUTH_CLAWBACK_ENABLED – the issuing account can claw back tokens without user consent, typically for regulatory compliance or terms-of-service violations.
Certain Stellar assets legitimately use these flags for legal and compliance reasons. Because of this, there is a way to request an exception and allow such assets to participate in Aquarius market voting and rewards.
Go to Aquarius Governance.
Create a governance discussion explaining why the restriction should be lifted. Your post should follow this format:
Title: Lift Flag Restrictions for [asset name]
Ticker: [asset ticker]
Asset issuer account: [issuing account]
Website: [official link]
Justification: explain what the asset does and why the flag restrictions should be removed.
Submit your discussion for community feedback. After one week, resubmit it as a formal proposal for a community vote.
If the community votes in favor, the Aquarius team will remove the restriction for that asset.
