In my opinion, **none of these proposals, except for reducing C, will positively impact the token price** ; in fact, they might do the opposite.

It’s clear that if we **reduce staking rewards, we decrease the token’s attractiveness**.

Moving **40% of revenue to the MegaVault seems very strange**. So far, the Vaults haven’t proven anything and are running at a **loss of around 10% APY** (a very rough estimate, as there’s no detailed report on the Vaults).

On one hand, the idea of **paying for liquidity in USDC is appealing** , but on the other hand, **how does the token fit into this?**

I think if we want to incentivize liquidity, we need a **hybrid model**. For example, a user could become an LP in the MegaVault if they **lock a certain amount of dydx tokens for a period of time**. The **longer the lock, the higher the percentage** they might earn on their capital and/or have **higher available limits as an LP**.

In this format, **directing a portion of the protocol’s revenue makes sense**.
