Summary

This proposal seeks approval for a complete restructuring of Gains Network's operating team and a significant change to the protocol's capital allocation strategy.

The proposal introduces a new operating team led by Tom, Sacha and Sam, supported by an operating bench that includes senior hires from top market makers, quant trading desks, and DeFi product teams, alongside long-standing GNS contributors as advisors. The proposed team would assume responsibility for protocol operations, growth initiatives, product development, listings, marketing, partnerships, and execution.

Key elements of the proposal:

• Transitioning protocol operations to the new team.

• Establishing a fully performance-conditional compensation model where the new team takes no fixed base from the protocol, with revenue share and token mint both gated on protocol performance.

• Redirecting the current 55% buyback allocation into a Growth & Marketing Treasury until $GNS reaches $20.

• Authorizing a price-gated token minting program of up to 24% of current GNS supply, vesting only as GNS crosses predefined price milestones.

• Establishing a roadmap focused on trading, trader acquisition, listings, product improvements, unified liquidity and other protocol enhancements.

• Funding the transition package and handover process for the outgoing team.
