DAO Treasury POL

Since the days of the Meteor LBEarrow-up-right, Minswap Labs has focused on the importance of the DeFi concept of "Protocol-Owned Liquidity" (POL)arrow-up-right. In essence, it means a protocol owning its own liquidity, in the case of the Minswap DEX, it would for instance be if the DAO Treasury owned and managed MIN/ADA LP tokens.

Currently, there are 3 sources for the DAO Treasury POL:

  1. Meteor Liquidity Bootstrapping Event (LBE): Minswap was the first Protocol on Cardano to embrace POL through the Meteor LBEarrow-up-right. The LBE ensured a fair and transparent way to determine the initial price of the MIN/ADA price, while enabling the DAO Treasury to keep 50% of the LP Tokens generated from the event. These MIN/ADA LP Tokens are currently not Yield Farming, however they passively accumulate Trading Fees from swaps.

  2. Launchbowl Events: following the success of the Meteor LBE, Minswap Labs also offers this service for projects to launch new tokens on the DEX through the Minswap Launchbowlarrow-up-right. As part of facilitating this service, a Fee in the LP Tokens generated in the Event is taken for the Minswap DAO Treasury. So far, INDY/ADA and MCOS/ADA LP Tokens were earned by the DAO Treasury as part of a Fee for facilitiating Launchbowl Events for Indigo Protocolarrow-up-right and Mocossiarrow-up-right. These LP Tokens generate both Trading Fees and Farming rewards.

  3. Fee Switch: the Fee Switch was activated following the DAO vote on the activation of the "Fee Switch"arrow-up-right. The mechanism was active for 10 months and accumulated 1.1mn ADA worth of $MIN/$ADA LP Tokens until is was ended to redicrec the Fee Switch towards $MIN Staking.

  4. Batcher Fees: with the start of $MINomics V2arrow-up-right it was decided that 50% of the $ADA in Batcher Fees generated each month will be redirected towards a DAO wallet.
