Overview

The DIA team proposes an ad hoc vote to unlock the deferred 2023 treasury, leveraging the current bullish market conditions and the rollout of DIA Lumina. This unlock will support DIA’s roadmap, including staking incentives, increased liquidity, and team expansion.

Context

This proposal follows the decision in GDP #015, where the community voted to delay the 2023 treasury unlock until market conditions improved. With the market now showing sustained growth, this unlock will accelerate DIA's strategic initiatives. For more information on the previous vote, refer to GDP #015.

Proposal Details

The treasury unlock will fund critical areas that align with DIA’s roadmap:

Staking Incentives

The treasury will support DIA Lumina staking pools until revenue can fully cover reward needs, offering attractive yields to token holders and validators.

Increased Liquidity

More DIA tokens are needed to maintain buy-side liquidity across CEXs and DEXs, ensuring smooth trading and deep order books.

Team Incentives

To secure top talent and sustain growth, additional token packages will be distributed with vesting schedules to ensure long-term commitment.

Proposed Allocation

• 40% Ecosystem incentives, incl. staking (≈ 3,62m DIA)
• 25% Liquidity management, incl. market maker and DEX pools (≈2,26m DIA)
• 20% Long-term employee token option plans (≈1,81m DIA)
• 15% Strategic reserve (≈1,35m DIA) Allocations may adjust over time based on market conditions and operational needs.

Vote Info

The vote is now open and will remain active for 48 hours. DIA token holders can vote Yes or No. The option with the highest vote count will be implemented.
