TRC-#118: Implementing a 1% Cap on oLIT Emissions for Pools with SCR Greater Than 100

Summary This proposal introduces a strategic approach to oLIT emissions, setting a conditional 1% cap for liquidity pools based on specific criteria: age (measured in epochs), Total Value Locked (TVL), and Support/Contribution Ratio (SCR). The cap targets pools that are older than 10 epochs, have a TVL of less than 500k, and an SCR exceeding 100. The primary objective of this proposal is to foster value creation within our ecosystem. By establishing these guidelines, we aim to identify pools that might benefit from strategic adjustments, such as range optimization to enhance swap fee generation. Our focus is not on penalizing these pools but on collaboratively elevating them to contribute more effectively to the ecosystem's health. A key aspect of this proposal is its emphasis on growth and alignment. Previously a discussion led by Token Brice around a framework for SCR actually considered terminating gauges for pools with a SCR above 100 (the initial SCR framework discussion, detailed here), where as this proposal suggests a 1% cap. This approach signifies our commitment to realigning and jointly growing our ecosystem, underscoring the importance of healthy protocol dynamics and the mutual advancement of all participants. In the short term, redirecting oLIT emissions from these capped pools will enable voters to support pools that provide a more balanced contribution to our ecosystem. It aligns with our philosophy of backing projects that add value to our ecosystem while also giving new participants the opportunity to flourish. This strategy ensures that our focus remains on collective growth and sustainability, benefiting all stakeholders in the Timeless ecosystem.
