I understand that SPOT is still in the soft launch phase so I’m fine with the settings for this round.
However for future rounds, I would like to see higher rewards for the SPOT/USDC pool. I would like the DAO to set a clear goal (like having 20% of the AMPL supply being utilized for SPOT as an example) and make a push towards it by providing more rewards to the SPOT/USDC pool.
In one of the previous geyser discussions, I mentioned the idea of a potential positive feedback loop that might come out of by offering 0.4% of the AMPL supply per year as rewards to the SPOT/USDC pool (as AMPL).
Since then we came to the conclusion that SPOT is a better form of paying out rewards due to the stableness and real yield aspect of it, and I agree.
I believe the same positive feedback loop can be achieved with SPOT too by giving out rewards that equals to 0.4% of the total supply of AMPL in every geyser round.
If this was implemented in the future, in numbers this would mean(at current supply):
42,600,000 * 0.004 ÷ 4 = 42,600
42,600 SPOT per geyser round
Just throwing out this idea into the room again for consideration for future geysers.
