Monthly Treasury Report
THORChain Monthly Expenses, Budget and Runway Report for February 2020
Overview
The treasury has been increased to $1.5m USD, sufficient for an 24 month Runway. OTC Sales were completed in the preceding month. There are no large expenses on the horizon, and the audit expenses are appropriately budgeted for.
The Community Reserve is fully-allocated to RUNEVault, which will be capped at 1m per week.
Treasury
The treasury has increased by $300k from $1.2m to now $1.5m. This is due to several large OTC sales. OTC sales are necessary to improve the treasury since the initial sale was quite small. OTC sales are always done at the 7-day moving average and typically closed in USDT.
The Community Reserve is healthy at 32m RUNE which is allocated to RUNEVault. The ongoing emission to the community is necessary to ensure that the original IDO could not be sybil-attacked and that distribution is wide. These efforts continue to pay off, with the RUNE asset being one of the most widely distributed on the Binance Chain network.
Runway
The current project runway is now increased to 24 months, despite the team hiring 2 additional engineers to now 10. All team members are paid 70% in USDT and 30% in RUNE for alignment with the project.
Large Expenses
The team’s budget of $150k for all three reports is adequate and is unlikely to go over.
Summary
In summary the team’s treasury is healthy for the stage of the project and will allow a solid 24 month runway for the project.
This is more than sufficient to deliver mainnet.
