🌉TreasuryBridge Smart Contract

Overview of the TreasuryBridge Smart Contract

Community Treasury Allocation

The Community Treasury was initially allocated 5.0% of the token supply, with 766,703 ethDYDX vesting in the treasury each epoch. However, as a result of several governance proposals, this allocation gradually increased to 26.1% over time.

In DIP 29, the dYdX community voted to reduce Trading & Liquidity Provider Rewards on dYdX v3 by 1/3 for Epoch 30-31. After Epoch 31, there are no Trading & Liquidity Provider Rewards on dYdX v3.

TreasuryBridge Contract

Since the TreasuryVester Smart Contract is immutable, an updated Treasury Smart Contract, TreasuryBridge Smart Contract was developed. The TreasuryBridge Smart Contract, was deployed for each of the community treasury and rewards treasury. The TreasuryBridge Smart Contract:

• One time: rejects new vesting from the TreasuryVester Smart Contract by calling the setRecipient function on this contract to set the recipient to a burn address, and

• Ongoing Basis: allows governance to bridge any amount of existing tokens in the community treasury or the rewards treasury (the current Treasury Smart Contract only allows transfer() and approve()).

Note, the TreasuryBridge smart contract is similar to the current corresponding Treasury Smart Contract except for the two differences referenced above.

Objectives

• Fund programs and initiatives that drive the growth of dYdX.

• Develop grant programs to fund community NFTs, hackathons, analytics dashboards, memes, swag, third-party tools, translations, and other projects.

• Develop a best-in-class governance system and incentivize robust governance.

Overview

The community treasury will retain ethDYDX to use as ethDYDX holders decide whether it be for grants, new liquidity mining pools, or any other program. ethDYDX will vest to the community treasury continuously over five years. A governance vote will be required to spend any ethDYDX from the community treasury.

If, after five years, governance decides to enact perpetual inflation (at a maximum annual inflation of 2%), any newly minted ethDYDX will be available to the community treasury.

FAQ

How did $ethDYDX vest in the Community Treasury?

The Community Treasury Vester (see details here) used to vest 0.3169242627 ethDYDX every second to the Community Treasury. Once ethDYDX had been vested, calling the claim function on the Community Treasury Vester would transfer the vested ethDYDX to the Community Treasury. Any dYdX community member can call the claim function on Etherscan here (which would require some ETH for gas fees) to move the vested ethDYDX from the Community Treasury Vester to the Community Treasury.

In DIP 29, the dYdX v3 community voted to set the recipient of the Community Treasury Vester to 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000002 , to effectively burn all unvested ethDYDX in the Community Treasury Vester.

Please refer to the dYdX Foundation’s Terms of Use for further details on the control of the Community Treasury by the dYdX community.

Who can submit proposals to spend ethDYDX from the Community Treasury?

Any user with sufficient proposing power can submit proposals. A governance vote will be required to spend any ethDYDX from the Community Treasury. To submit a proposal, please submit a dYdX Improvement Proposal (DIP) as laid out in the DIP Proposal Lifecycle.

How do you go about building a proposal to spend funds from the Community Treasury?

Reverie has put together a comprehensive, technical, step-by-step guide on how any dYdX community member with more than 5M ethDYDX (proposal threshold for a short timelock vote) of proposal power can create a proposal to transfer ethDYDX from the Community Treasury to a destination address.

What types of proposals can be submitted to the Community Treasury?

A community-managed treasury opens up a world of possibilities. We hope to see various experiments and initiatives, including ecosystem grants, which can foster the dYdX Layer 2 Protocol’s ecosystem growth.

The TreasuryVester contract was inspired by Uniswap.

The Short Timelock can only execute governance-approved actions.

There are two vesting contracts, the Rewards Treasury Vester and the Community Treasury Vester. Each vester vests ethDYDX to the respective treasury contract - Rewards Treasury Vester to the Rewards Treasury and Community Treasury Vester to the Community Treasury.

dYdX governance under the Short Timelock Executor, controls the Rewards Treasury and the Community Treasury. As such, the dYdX community through dYdX governance can transfer funds in the Rewards Treasury and the Community Treasury to any address and/or approve any address to spend funds from either treasury.

Each treasury vester will vest tokens linearly over ~5 years (August 3rd 2021 - August 3rd 2026) to the corresponding treasury.
