The dYdX Foundation announced the community's approval of a key proposal for implementing a revenue-sharing mechanism. The decision aims to boost DYDX token utility and competitiveness.

Proposal Approval

On November 15, the proposal was passed with a 76.99% turnout. Over 155 million DYDX tokens, or 89% of the votes, supported the initiative. Recently published by research group nethermind, the proposal addressed DYDX tokenomics and protocol competitiveness. The goal is to enhance DYDX token utility and reduce emissions amid competing protocols.

Revenue Distribution

Under the proposal, 50% of dYdX Chain's revenue will go to the MegaVault, allowing users to deposit USDC for liquidity in exchange for yield. This move incentivizes user participation and supports the decentralized exchange. Additionally, 10% is allocated to the Treasury subDAO to complement staking rewards.

We are proposing to route 50% of protocol revenue to the MegaVault because liquidity is a fundamental component of dYdX’s competitive advantage.

Impact on Ecosystem

Launched on October 26, 2023, the dYdX Chain has already generated over $232 billion in trading volume. More than $39 million has been distributed to validators and stakers. The new revenue distribution aims to increase liquidity, thus enhancing the platform's efficiency and competitiveness.

The approval of the dYdX revenue-sharing proposal represents a significant step towards strengthening the platform's position in the decentralized finance space. The anticipated changes are expected to increase overall competitiveness and ensure sustainable ecosystem growth.
