Create a Cryptex Sub DAO to manage liquidity provision

Dear Community Members,

A proposal is put forward for the establishment of a SubDAO within the Cryptex protocol, with the aim of managing liquidity provision. This initiative is designed to ensure the protocol remains decentralized and responsive to the needs of its users.

SubDAO Structure

  • Separation from Core Team:
    The SubDAO will operate independently from the core development team.

  • Multisig Management:
    A multisig wallet with 3 to 5 signers from the community will be established to manage the liquidity provision process. These signers will collectively manage the process.

  • Community Voting:
    Decisions related to liquidity allocation, token pairings, and adjustments will be put to community votes.
    Decentralized decision-making leads to better outcomes for all stakeholders.

Liquidity Provision Process
TCAP Liquidity:
As previously voted by the community, the PYTH airdrop funds will be used to add TCAP liquidity to Cryptex Pi. The SubDAO’s multisig will manage the liquidity provision for TCAP. This includes adding liquidity to the Cryptex protocol.

CTX Pool on Uniswap:
In addition, many community members requested a new CTX trading pool on DEXes. A proposal has been made to set up a new CTX pool on Uniswap within the Base network.
A portion of CTX from the treasury will be programmatically sold for USDC. After the DAO has enough USDC, it will use more CTX from the treasury to seed both sides of the pool (CTX and USDC).

The community-owned multisig will oversee this pool, ensuring CTX holders have ample liquidity for trading.

Governance by CTX Holders
The SubDAO will indeed be governed by CTX holders. Their active participation in voting and decision-making will shape the protocol’s future. It is encouraged for all CTX holders to engage in the governance process and contribute to the protocol’s success.

Call to Action
The community is invited to express their interest in becoming multisig signers for the SubDAO. If you believe in the power of decentralized governance and want to actively contribute to Cryptex’s success, please step forward.

Together, the community can build a stronger, more resilient protocol that serves the interests of all stakeholders. Let us embrace decentralization and shape the future of Cryptex.

Love this, we could use a mechanism similar to Optimism to pick up the signers/council, some examples:

Dear Community Members,

The snapshot vote to select candidates for the SubDAO multisig has concluded. Based on the results, 0xDonnie, dnkta, and ClownBaby received approximately 70% of the votes.
The SubDAO multisig will begin with 3 signers, and on a quarterly, bi-annual, or annual basis, we can vote on adding more contributors to the SubDAO.

The multisig has been created and is ready to use, see below:

Now, we are ready for an on-chain vote to move the assets approved for management from the previous proposals.
First, we will focus on transferring 69,206.38148 USDC from the Cryptex DAO Treasury to the Cryptex Liquidity Management SubDAO:

The transferred USDC will be used to add liquidity for TCAP as voted by the community.

After this initial step, we will proceed with a second on-chain vote by the end of June to manage the CTX transfers for the CTX pool on Base.

Your participation in these on-chain votes is crucial for the continued success and growth of our DAO. Please review the information provided and cast your vote. Your support and dedication are greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your ongoing commitment to our DAO

The Cryptex Liquidity Management SubDAO added the protocol owned liquidity to the TCAP pool.

A 4th signer: @Crisgarner has been added to the Cryptex Liquidity Management SubDAO on ETH, ARB and BASE multisigs.

Over time, more people should be onboarded to the SubDAO to make it as decentralized as possible.
