Simple Summary
This proposal presents the opportunity to INDEX holders to reduce the dsETH Streaming fee from 25bps (0.25%) to 0bps (0%) as recently discussed in this previous forum post.
Abstract
The current fee structure of dsETH is as shown below:
Streaming Fee: 25bps
Mint Fee: 0bps
Redeem Fee: 0bps
After additional market research and collecting feedback from core customer categories, we would like to propose that fees be reduced as shown in the specification below.
Specification
Streaming Fee: 0bps
Mint Fee: 0bps
Redeem Fee: 0bps
Motivation
The objective of reducing dsETH fees to 0% is to increase access to staked Ethereum yield and encourage greater staking participation. If successful, the adoption of dsETH will reward decentralisation efforts and help secure the Ethereum network, and consequently help the product gain traction and promote awareness of Index Coop’s overall brand.
Voting
FOR: Eliminate 25 basis points (0.25%) Streaming Fee for dsETH in accordance with the specification.
AGAINST: Make no change to dsETH fee structure.
