🐒 8IP — Snapshot Governance test live

The Snapshot voting test is live. Make sure your voting weight is correct! We are using naive quadratic voting, so your voting weight is the square root of your (staked MPH + MPH in liquidity mining staking on Uniswap/Sushi/LinkSwap).

Test out our Snapshot voting here https://snapshot.org/#/88mph.eth/proposal/QmaeWQmjp3SGJssZaaLqWfoSoDk7zRWvufYVXn1C3rtLXX

🧬 MPH is included in a ‘DeFi Innovation Vault’

MPH has been included into the newest round of Vault proposals over at @DRCToken and looks set to pass through the governance vote.

🎆 Protocol Revenue Infographic

Keeping this up for another round.

This dope Infographic created by our resident big-left-and-right-side-brain McFly, demonstrates how a 4 month old company can distribute cash dividend to its shareholders?

Infographic caption #1: fixed-interest rate bonds generate revenues from platform fees (10% of the interests paid out) and governance tokens harvested on the underlying protocols used to generate yields (eg. COMP + FARM tokens).

Infographic caption #2: 100% of all revenues generated from fees + governance tokens are swapped to $DAI from the open market. Those $DAI are delivered as yield to $MPH stakers. The devs fund and the gov treasury don’t have any share of the protocol’s revenues.

⛏💦 Uniswap Liquidity Mining Round 9.

1,888 $MPH rewarded (157/d), lasting until March 27, 2021. These MPH come directly from the governance treasury, no additionally minted tokens. Stake your LP tokens on https://88mph.app/farming/.
