StaFi charges a commission ranging from 5% to 10% from different LSD, and an additional redemption fee may apply. These fees will be sent to the treasury pool as protocol revenue.

The following table shows the revenue of StaFi Protocol since June 2023 for each month. You can get more detailed data on StaFi’s data analysis page.

LSaaS Adoption Expenditure

During August, in addition to the $100,000 of development costs, there was a total of 29.28 LINK and 38.71 SSV worth of FIS spent as services fee, and also 146,325 FIS spent as the other main non-development expenditure(from DeFi incentives, marketing, market making, events, hackthons, etc.) for the LSaaS adoption. The non-development expenditures will be listed below, in a monthly way.

Besides, due to the varying timelines for incentive settings, there are incentives on some platforms that continue across months.

As part of the restructuring of StaFi’s overall plan, StaFi DAO will gradually reduce the incentives on DeFi Liquidity and instead focus more on expanding the awareness and use of LSaaS. As a result, it can be seen that the DeFi Liquidity Incentives have been reduced than before; and the supports to maketing, events, etc. are increasing.

A certain amount of treasury FIS will be transferred to hot-wallets in order to support the multi expenditures of StaFi DAO. After paying the appropriate fee, if there is any left over, it will be saved for the next use; if there is a shortage of funds, they will be replenished by transferring funds from the DAO treasury addresses.

2. Services Fee

Year/Month Protocol Service Token Amount
2024/08 Chainlink CCIP CCIP Automation LINK 24.86 LINK
2024/08 Chainlink CCIP CCIP Sender LINK 4.42 LINK
2024/08 SSV Network DVT registerValidator SSV 38.71 SSV

The actual fees incurred for the use of Chainlink CCIP and SSV DVT in August 2024 will be reported above.

As we all know that StaFi has integrated Chainlink CCIP and SSV DVT for higher security and decentralization. Beginning in November 2023, some costs are incurred for the use of these two services. As the costs incurred for these services are consumptive and StaFi DAO will replenish them as they become depleted, the costs associated with StaFi DAO’s expenditures are prepaid. For example, the fees for services used in January were a direct deduction of the fees previously remaining in the account.

3. Community Incentives

Year/Month Fee type Category Member Amount
2024/08 Community Incentive Moderator 1 937.08 FIS

(Due to issues with the contribution submission system, some members’ incentives for this month will be distributed next month.)

The community Incentive Expenditures for August were 937.08 FIS in total.

We’ve modified the requirements for Warriors and Rangers and the way they contribute to StaFi. This change was explored in some depth in our October 2023 DAO report. Talents are wanted to build StaFi 2.0 together and create a win-win future!

Note: StaFi Warriors is now open for passionate individuals, if you’re good at Community Management, BD Moderation or you’re with skills in drawing or using AIGC to create high-quality images, huge community incentives await you. Contact with us now!

DAO Progress

There’s no much progress on DAO framework construction recently, as the key target of StaFi during these months is to build up a widerly known brand “StaFi 2.0 — LSaaS“.

  • A voting for FIS burning proposal is ongoing: Proposing to burn 100% of the FIS that continuously flow into the treasury address.This action is intended to reduce FIS inflation from 10% to around 6%, transitioning the token towards a deflationary model.

September 2024 Budget Plan

Recognized as the cornerstone of StaFi’s narrative, LSaaS holds paramount importance. To bolster its adoption, StaFi DAO is gradually reallocating resources towards LSaaS.

LSaaS Adoption Budget

Overview

StaFi DAO would like to provide as much support as possible at this time to accelerate mass adoption of LSaaS. More adoption programs are being developed in order to reach the target.

There will be a budget of $100,000 per month, to support the LSaaS adoption. It should be be further clarified that, this budget will first cover LSaaS-related development costs; the remaining founds(if any) will be used to support marketing, events, and other parts. It’s a fixed expenditure monthly and will not be shown in the table below.

Plans for expenditures other than development costs (including DeFi incentives, market making, events, hackthons, etc.) will be listed in the table if they are firm. The following are among the more certain budget plans.

Budget Plans List

Year/Month Fee type Platform Token/Pairs Platform type Amount
2024/09-2024/12 LSaaS Ecosystem Grant LSaaS FIS - 2,000,000 FIS
2024/09 StaFi Community Incentive (Depend on the contribution type) FIS - (Depend on the related contribution)

(This is an estimated value and the actual value may slightly vary depending on market fluctuations.)
