See you there! 
We’re excited to announce that our proposal to establish a new @dYdX Treasury subDAO has passed on Mintscan!

Excited to announce that we’ll be attending @MessariCrypto in NYC from Sept 30 - Oct 2!
This year, our Head of Institutional, @RSousaMarques, will be sharing how karpatkey is leveraging its on-chain asset management expertise to build an actively managed, open-end investment… 
1/ While our Treasury SubDAO proposal for @dYdX focuses on the immediate needs of the community, our commitment is long-term. In this 🧵 we’ll explore those longer-term solutions, including: ✴️Replenishing the treasury ✴️Ecosystem growth ✴️Strategic buybacks and yield generation
2/ A core part of our strategy is the staking program, which will delegate ~40M DYDX from the Community Treasury to validators. This program is expected to generate a net contribution of 4.8M USDC per year, laying the foundation for long-term financial stability and diversifying…
3/ DAOs sometimes struggle with too many initiatives running in parallel, leading to misaligned resources. karpatkey can help @dYdX maintain a strong focus on product performance and growth by ensuring that financial resources are distributed effectively to improve their…
4/ One of our core strengths is finding synergies across our partner network. For instance, Nexus Mutual could provide insurance solutions for MegaVault depositors, protecting them against liquidation risks caused by price feed errors. We can explore further synergies with all of…
5/ We've proposed an optional strategy to leverage the USDC accumulated from the staking program in DeFi strategies, interacting with battle-tested protocols. This will generate additional returns without exposing the underlying treasury assets to unnecessary risks.
6/ Strategic buybacks are another key optional component of our proposal. These buybacks can reduce the circulating supply of DYDX, strengthen liquidity, and boost market sentiment. This is especially impactful when the token is undervalued, creating opportunities to align with…
7/ Voting is now open—make sure your voice is heard and support karpatkey’s vision for the dYdX community: 🔗 mintscan.io/dydx/proposals… 🗳️ There are two competing proposals. We hope you'll vote YES for karpatkey, and NO on the alternative.
1/ Key takeaways from our recent AMA with @dydxfoundation, addressing community questions:
2/ Our fees will be $300k per year. Our fees will remain at this minimum level until we drive substantial growth at dYdX, ensuring proper alignment between costs and performance.
3/ We discussed synergies within karpatkey’s partner network, enabling @dYdX to leverage collaborations with other leading DeFi projects for long-term growth and ecosystem development.
For example, with @NexusMutualDAO, there is potential to offer insurance solutions across…
4/ Buybacks are a key optional component in our proposal. By executing strategic buybacks from the open market, we can reduce the circulating supply of DYDX, strengthen liquidity, and drive positive market sentiment, aligned with the community’s interests. This strategy is…
5/ We also proposed an optional strategy to leverage the USDC accumulated through the staking program in DeFi strategies to grow the treasury further. karpatkey only interacts with renowned and battle-tested DeFi protocols to minimise risks. This approach will generate further…
6/ We support open communication with the @dYdX community to shape the treasury strategy. We are committed to transparency and accountability. Our treasury strategies are pre-approved by the communities we serve, and we operate strictly within those predefined boundaries.

Our proposal to establish a new @dYdX Treasury subDAO is now live for voting on Mintscan!
Key reasons to support karpatkey:
1️⃣ Lower Fees, Aligned with Growth: Our fees will be $300k per year. Our fees will remain at this minimum level until we drive substantial growth at dYdX,… 
@lavender_five @dYdX Thank you for opening this discussion! We have shared details of our costs for the proposal scope in the forum: dydx.forum/t/dydx-treasur… In the current market, our fee is $300k (bottom of the defined range). It will only increase if the dYdX ecosystem grows substantially.
We’re live! Join the AMA with @dYdXFoundation as we dive into our proposal to establish a new @dYdX Treasury SubDAO👇
1/ Last week karpatkey submitted a proposal to create a @dYdX Treasury SubDAO, with validator staking at the core. A properly designed staking program can diversify the treasury and provide greater security to the dYdX Chain. A brief 🧵on why: 
2/ Our staking program will be built on the following core principles: 1️⃣ Leverage existing validators 2️⃣ Incentivize good validator behaviour with greater allocations 3️⃣ Gradually diversify the treasury through USDC-denominated yield
3/ karpatkey will delegate DYDX from the Community Treasury to existing dYdX Chain validators. The program will incentivise “good validator” behavior: ✳️ value positive contributions to the ecosystem ✳️ transparent selection criteria ✳️ consider existing validator metrics
4/ The staking program will support treasury sustainability and incentivise healthy ecosystem growth. Validators will benefit from delegated DYDX tokens. The program is expected to yield a net contribution of 4.8M USDC/year based on an average validator fee of 10%. 
5/ 🔊 Don’t forget to join us today at 15:00 UTC with @dYdXFoundation to discuss our proposal. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have on the call!
On Thursday @TheTakenUser and @alicecorsini_ from karpatkey will join @ProofOfJase and @DegenWitch from the @dYdXFoundation to discuss our proposal for the new @dYdX Treasury SubDAO.

We hope you can join us! 
Today, karpatkey submitted a proposal to launch a @dYdX Treasury SubDAO. We look forward to engaging with the dYdX community on this critically important topic.
You can view our complete proposal on the dYdX Forum here: dydx.forum/t/dydx-treasur… 
1/ Our proposal for @dYdX includes: ➡️ Staking Program ➡️ Treasury Management ➡️ Financial Planning ➡️ Reporting
We also added two optional items, subject to separate follow-on proposals: ➡️ DeFi Strategies for improving yield ➡️ DYDX token buybacks
2/ We recommend allocating ~50% of the vested DYDX tokens (approx. 40M) in the Community Treasury to the staking program. We believe this to be a good balance between decentralisation and generating non-operating revenues for the treasury. This will enable the allocated funds to… 
3/ karpatkey will support the DAO in forecasting and optimising expenses and suggesting non-operating revenue streams to ensure the buildup of USDC reserves with a long-term target of reaching 18 months of secured runway.
We will provide detailed and timely reports on @dYdX…
4/ As noted above, we have included two optional items in our proposal:
✔️ karpatkey recommends leveraging the USDC accumulated through the staking program in DeFi strategies to grow the treasury further. The USDC tokens generated from the staking program will be allocated to… 
5/ Our primary goal is to allocate assets within the @dYdX ecosystem to ensure long-term sustainability and foster growth. We look forward to further discussions with the community to align this proposal with the long-term interests of the DAO.
