Dear Cryptex Community,
This proposal seeks DAO approval to renew our market making agreement with DaVinci Trading (formerly SkyNet Trading) for 2025-2026.
As with all Cryptex Finance market maker partnerships over the last four years, this arrangement is fully transparent and subject to community governance vote.
Key Context:
• Current SkyNet 2024-2025 LP provisioning: 200,000 CTX
• On or around June 17, 2025, this loan (or USDC equivalent) will be returned to the Cryptex DAO Treasury, alongside 200,000 CTX (or USDC equivalent) currently on loan to Wintermute Trading.
Proposal Terms:
• Renew DaVinci Trading for an additional 12-month term (June 2025 – June 2026)
• Authorize a 300,000 CTX loan from the DAO Treasury for 2025-2026.
Wintermute will continue as an official Cryptex market maker with 225,000 CTX through June 2026.
No vote is required for Wintermute’s continuation.

- Should Da Vinci choose to (partially) exercise their CTX option, the loan balance will be returned to the DAO treasury in the form of USDC.
