Echoing from our [post](https://dydx.forum/t/drc-dydx-community-staking-proposal/2444/33) regarding the previous community staking proposal from Reverie, we think the community would make a well informed decision if the proposer could present the effective changes this proposal would introduce, if passed.

Example:

> [@\[DRC\] dYdX Community Staking Proposal](https://dydx.forum/t/drc-dydx-community-staking-proposal/2444/33):
>
> - On-chain stake will increase overall security by 20m dYdX from the current 245.57m tokens staked (roughly an 8% increase).
> - The community pool’s balance will spend 20m tokens, which represents 8.54% of its current 234m supply.
> - Existing depositors’ APR will decrease from 21.32% to roughly 18% (a 15.6% drop in revenue for existing stakers).
> - 90% of rewards used to auto-compound DYDX, 2.5% flow directly to the dYdX community treasury as USDC, with the remainder 7.5% going to the Stride protocol’s fee.
> - Voting Power in the active set will add 20m dYdX to 14 validators based on the current delegation policy weights agreed upon by both Stride and the dYdX community (sources: [here](https://dydx.forum/t/announcing-stdydx-and-stride-s-initial-host-chain-validator-set/1960) and [there](https://dydx.forum/t/announcing-the-first-expansion-of-stride-s-stdydx-validator-set/2292)).

It would be perfect if the original author @pSTAKE could update the first post and provide similar information to guide user’s decision with clear data points.

Anyway, we want to show our support for this initiative which we see as a good opportunity to balance community allocations between the different Liquid Staking Tokens (LST) providers.

Looking forward to your updates,
