A simplified approach to Intrinsic Productivity

ok, Sorry for the technical issues on Thursday.

Slide deck is here:

I’ve added some notes to a couple of slides at the end of the deck: also below:

Felix: What is our product strategy?

  • Most Liquidity
  • More integrations
  • Fees (low cost grow AUV - but less sensitive during bull market)*
  • Good brand
  • Low risk
  • How useful is it

Lemonade: Is intrinsic productivity the most important thing to increase AUV?

  • Should we be spending INDEX on this now?

DFC: Is intrinsic productivity too complex to do now?

  • Is implementing IP for coinshares simpler (large proportion of ETH) better, ~3 months after launch to allow AUV to stabilise
  • TradFi customer may be more price sensitive (re rebate on streaming fees)

Verto: Do we need index staking?

  • Noted that index staking is a good marketing tool for coop
  • Makes INDEX productive

Lemonade - I wouldn’t want native yield (“A little Ponzi like” ), much prefer DPI as income.*

*Lemonade - Should we bundle insurance with DPI?

Could get cover for 20% of the fund collapse (i.e. the value of a single component), in return for 2% premium.

Overall arguments against doing intrinsic productivity now:

  • Delay for coin shares roll out
  • Dev time
  • Too early
  • Need $DPI staking to control risk.
