After collecting the overall feedback on the new DHT Staking model here are the main points and the suggestions:
Issue:
- Concerns with risk of a pool generating a 0 performance bonus, which Increase capital risked for zero rewards. Potentially promoting more riskier behavior. I.e. investing in potential higher performing pools compared to conservative pools.
Suggestions:
Reduce max performance bonus from 100% back to e.g. 50%
Issue:
- Suggestion of an added multiplier/option:
Timelock - where funds can be locked for 1,2,3 years.
If locked user gets an x multiplier depending on time frame.
Suggestions:
Not an issue - point of the new design is to keep users engaged with the platform - and to discourage set-and-forget
Issue:
- Clarification on Protocol Treasury and quarterly bonus in new Model
Suggestion:
Protocol Treasury is low at the moment, would be good to keep growing [set a target, e.g. $100m] funds on protocol before further disbursements. Long-term view rather
Issue:
- Early/current stakers are not rewarded in the new model. Potential early adopter NFT, that can have a use case in the new staking model.
Suggestion:
Give current stakers a promoted/maxed out vDHT Duration Bonus in new staking model.
Possibly not an issue for DHT earning, could be an issue in Governance.
Issue:
- Creating an option for current stakers that are long DHT. ie don’t want exposure to other assets.
Suggestion:
dHEDGE pool that holds only DHT. This pool token can then be staked with DHT in new model.
Issue:
What will happen at DHT migration? Will we run both V1 on Ethereum for a while or instantly drop v1 and move to staking v2.?
Suggestion:
Drop v1 asap. Ideally no overlap.
