The Unlock Protocol DAO continues its commitment to fostering innovation, community engagement, and sustainable growth within the ecosystem. This budget proposal for Q1 and Q2 of 2025 outlines our strategic allocation of resources to support key initiatives, ensuring transparency and efficiency in the management of our treasury.

Our primary objectives for this period include:

Empowering the Community – Allocating funds to reward valuable proposals and incentivize contributions that enhance the protocol. Expanding Our Reach – Implementing a marketing strategy to increase visibility, adoption, and engagement within the Web3 space. Sustaining Long-Term Growth – Ensuring the responsible management of DAO funds while covering ongoing commitments such as incentives and operational expenses. Strengthening Our Ecosystem – Supporting core contributors who play a vital role in maintaining and advancing the protocol. This proposal provides a detailed breakdown of the planned budget, taking into account both new initiatives and ongoing commitments. Additionally, in the event of an increase in the token's value, any surplus funds will be subject to extraordinary votes, ensuring that no additional funds are used without prior community approval.

By implementing this budget, we aim to maintain the DAO’s financial health while continuing to innovate and expand the Unlock Protocol ecosystem.
