You’re on line and have better insight about the 50%.
There should be something more akin to an entire percentage breakdown of the active addresses on Jupiter. The level of interaction, the value of those interactions and create chart that shows all that. Then somehow factor in the JUP DAO stakers as a percentage of that whole pie to receive a reward for being stakers but only proportionately to the whole pie so most likely much less than 50% but yes some reward using your idea of time weighted metrics to increase reward would be a good mechanic. Just the 50% part is a bit absurd given the fact that Jupiter is much more a sum of all of its parts and the stakers make up a small percentage of that.
Le idee su carote e metriche sono interessanti, soprattutto se portano a una crescita organica.
Ma forse possiamo spingerci oltre: organizzare gruppi operativi che sviluppino strumenti utili.
In questo modo, il 50% non è solo reddito passivo, ma diventa carburante per coloro che creano valore reale.
Se ogni staker si limita a raccogliere ricompense e spostare capitale fuori dalla piattaforma, il sistema perde forza.
Possiamo evitarlo se il capitale guadagnato viene reinvestito all’interno della piattaforma, anche al di fuori dello staking.
I think you are spot on! Rewarding stakers will be a bonus to staking and will encourage more staking from other people in the system. Given that your of staking rewards will draw lots of new stalkers.
I know the only users who have directly contributed to $Jup are stakers but 50% is quietly much maybe like 20% will be a good game while some percentages should go to new products, off chains contributors and future incentives like carrots.
50% of Jupnuary is way to much, I believe 20-25% is more appropriate
I can only be convince with 30% bcos of greater loss stakers paid the price off.
I’m rekt as a stakers of jup but never the less the rewards should go to users and wallet whom genuinely support jupiverse.
The proposal to allocate 50% of Jupnuary to stakers is valid and effectively encourages direct support for the ecosystem. However, I believe that a second layer of incentives should occur simultaneously, aimed at traders who use JUP in their transactions.
A token’s long-term value depends heavily on its real utility within the protocol. For this reason, I propose that, in addition to rewarding stakers, an immediate benefit should be implemented for users who choose to pay fees with JUP instead of SOL — for example, a 50% reduction in transaction fees for those who opt to use the token.
This approach creates a virtuous cycle:
-
Stakers are rewarded for supporting the ecosystem.
-
Traders gain a direct financial incentive to adopt the token in daily usage.
-
JUP gains practical utility, increases healthy circulation, and strengthens organic demand.
Rewarding staking and promoting transactional use reinforces the role of the JUP token within Jupiter and contributes to a more solid and sustainable tokenomics model.
loved the idea of 50% to stakers although I believe they have already chosen to reward less. if they are open to reevaluating more rewards to stakers i believe it would grow the community faster and stronger. i am also interested in starting a point system like meteora and loopscale so stakers that stake longer could be rewarded then those just staking for the rewards period. i have a small amount staked but i am always hesitant to stake more when you can earn so much just providing liquidity.
I agree with the spirit that stakers should be rewarded but I think the JUP team should focus on how to grow the value of JUP back to $1. This will be a better return than more JUP distribution.
If anything, I prefer SOL or JLP distribution. If I receive anything extra, I want to sell and spend my reward. If I receive JUP I will probably sell the JUP too. Selling pressure => price goes down. If I receive SOL, then JUP stays golden. In fact if people find out SOL is distributed then probably it will attract more people to hold JUP. Price goes up with more buyers. I mean meow himself will be rewarded with millions of JUP. Doesn’t it make sense for him to receive millions that’s worth more than 25 cents? He still lives in the real world too.
When JUP price is good, everyone’s happy whatever happens. Rising tide lifts all boats. When JUP price is bad, we need to do everything to protect the price.
You make a very good point. before I started buying JUP because someone smarter then me in tradfi asked what I thought about being paid in JUP and my first answer was to ask to be paid in JLP.
Then I showed him around the GMXSOL RWA pools and he understood quickly the benefits of JLP as a reward and its long term value with the growth of crypto markets.
I do not disagree with your point. it actual makes a lot of sense. leave the JUP for buyers and those looking to put there governance weight behind protocol direction. It makes me rethink my small bag and how much more beneficial it would be for me to hold JLP since it would cost millions to actually have some sway in protocol direction.
It’s very difficult to grow the price back to $1 this time around regarding the emissions that surround $Jup as a token and lack of utility for $Jup and Jupiter stakers.
The regarding the visible point system seems they rewarded last jupnuary base on point system.
Definitely not this round…
Usually agree with most of your takes Lochie but look at the token price - JUP have to reward people who stick around through thick and thin.
50% is a lot, I maybe wouldn’t say that much, but I definitely agree with the sentiment. Jup stakers are being taken for a ride. Delaying the snapshot and allowing people to farm and dilute people who’ve been using the product all year, and diluting stakers to “attract more users” just takes the piss.
50% seems high but its better then rewarding bot trading volume and wash trading. its a good place to start if meeting in the middle is possible. i would be more comfortable with linking the discuss.jup participation to your wallet. being an active member in the future of the DAO is incredibly undervalued platform wide. keeping a low staker distribution and high participation rate would change everything. it would clearly grow the active community instead of the set it and forget it stakers. its crazy to see how much money Jup is making off users. what is the downside of more discussion distribution?
