Over the previous yr, rhino.fi has skilled outstanding progress, reaching over 50,000 weekly lively users and 800,000 registered accounts. Our income has surged from $10k/month to averaging over $200okay/month. And thus far we’ve managed to drive this progress and market adoption all with out utilising our token, DVF.
Now, as we gear up for the subsequent section of our progress, we’re contemplating how we will align DVF and its group of token maintainers with rhino.fi’s success.
Our objectives are easy:
Make sure the token of rhino.fi accrues actual valueAchieve higher distribution of the token and use it to speed up the expansion flywheel
Some Background
Initially envisioned because the governance token for DeversiFi, DVF has developed alongside rhino.fi. Right now, rhino.fi stands as a multi-chain DeFi aggregator, providing lightning quick bridging to 14 rollups (and counting), yield alternatives, cross-chain swaps, and extra.
With most of our operations now off-chain, the governance mechanism offered by DVF is much less related. The unique on-chain protocol, constructed on StarkEx and providing order-book and AMM buying and selling, generates little or no income, whereas rhino.fi as a platform is now starting to generate important income, primarily from cross-chain swap aggregation, yield and bridging.
We need to discover one of the best methods to leverage DVF’s potential on this new panorama.
Present State of DVF
Distribution:
60% held undistributed by DVF DAO27% held by Liquidity Labs13% in public arms (vested or unvested with strategic supporters and group)
One strategic early consumer airdrop has been deployed, which elevated circulating provide by a really small margin, and is included within the 13% of tokens at the moment circulating.
Governance and Staking
A governance mechanism was constructed for DVF utilizing the Secure Zodiac module and Snapshot.
Governance has possession over a big treasury of DVF tokens (over 50% of the availability, as described because the DVF DAO above), in addition to a pool of ETH and USDT at the moment used to offer DAO owned liquidity on Ethereum and a number of other L2s. It additionally has the power to mint and burn DVF, and make a number of changes to parameters of the StarkEx based mostly protocol and AMM pool.
DVF may also be staked to obtain xDVF. xDVF offers holders voting rights, and in addition was meant to be the place charges would accrue if charges have been activated within the protocol.
Because it at the moment stands, no charges have been ever activated and distributed to xDVF holders
