Claim Fees from Perennial Protocol v2 Deployment on Arbitrum and Transfer to DAO Treasury

Summary

This proposal seeks DAO approval to claim the fees generated by the Cryptex Protocol on Arbitrum using the Perennial Protocol, totaling approximately $15,988.60 USD, and to transfer these funds into the Cryptex DAO Treasury on Mainnet.

Background

Cryptex Finance v2 was built using the Perennial Protocol on the Arbitrum Network. As a result $15,988.60 USD was accrued on fees. The asset acquired was DSU, which is a wrapped asset used on the Perennial Protocol. The goal of this proposal is to unwrap these assets and transfer them back to the mainnet treasury.

Currently, these funds remain in the Arbitrum Treasury associated with the deployment and have not yet been moved or utilized. As the Perennial Protocol has sunset, we want to be cautious and unwrap the tokens.

Rationale

The efforts of the Core Contributors team are focussed on generating revenue for the DAO, these efforts come in multiple forms, in this case the deployment of V2 on the Arbitrum Network by ways of the Perennial Protocol.

Transferring the generated fees to the Cryptex DAO Treasury aligns with the DAO’s principles of transparency, decentralization, and collective stewardship of protocol revenues.
By consolidating these funds under the DAO’s management, members can collectively determine their future use whether for funding research, development initiatives, liquidity programs, or other governance approved purposes.

In the future we will continue to see this type of transactions as revenue keeps coming in from the deployment and execution of the products created by the team.

Proposal Objective

  • Unwrap the **$**15,988.60 DSU in fees generated using the Perennial Protocol deployment on Arbitrum.

  • Transfer the claimed funds from the current wallet to the Cryptex DAO Treasury wallet on Mainnet.

I support this proposal!

This proposal sounds good to me.

I endorse this proposal. I assume these funds will be converted to stables and then transferred to the DAO Treasury?

Yes, the funds are in DSU, which is a Perennial wrapper of USDC, tradeable 1:1. The funds will be claimed and deposited in the DAO treasury on Arbitrum

Great, the SubDAO also has around 2k in USDC that needs to be claimed.

Let’s get this done for the DAO and SubDAO!
