Extension of staking incentives

Fellow Hydrators

I would like to raise a discussion around extra staking incentives. To kick off 2025 we celebrated by 25 weeks of boosted staking rewards https://hydration.subsquare.io/referenda/7 . Chewing glass was the phrase used as an expression by Kubo to describe the previous two years of supporting Hydration during the first AMA earlier in the year on X. The 25 weeks of celebration was a great way to give back to the early supporters and also help with the first 6 months on 2025 that have been to say lightly, very bumpy. I know that as one of these early supporters chewing glass I have appreciated this extra incentive to be invested in governance and active supporting in the community.

As the 25 weeks come to an end I think we should discuss moving forward with extra incentives to keep Hydration being the most active ecosystem communities with governance and making sure our staking rewards for our non inflationary HDX token are high enough to keep our momentum going.

Personally I think the 25 weeks were very very generous and the same generosity is not really needed moving forward, especially as we see the flywheel effect of increased TVL having an impact on the HDX token.

What is your opinions on:

  • Adding extra incentives beyond 25 weeks
  • A competitive APY for our non inflationary HDX token (ie how much HDX to supply as incentives)
  • Length of time to extend incentives
  • Any other points you want to make on this topic?

Stay Hydrated, not liquidated…
