Lido DAO proposes a dynamic buyback of up to 70% for $LDO With over $145M in stables and stETH sitting idle, the DAO is looking to return value to holders. These assets generate no revenue. Time to put them to work. The proposal: • 70% of NEW incoming assets → $LDO buybacks • 30% retained for ops & strategy Why like this? To ensure the DAO doesn't run out of development money. There are some 'safeguard thresholds' the DAO should not cross. - If Treasury sits between $50M and $85M, buybacks drop to 50%. - If the liquid treasury falls below $50M, buybacks stop. Great to see a DeFi giant being serious about longterm token value. Still needs to be discussed and voted by the DAO. ---- Current treasury assets: • $17M USDC • $11.9M USDT • $12.2M DAI • 28,640 stETH (~$105M) I hope to support the proposal as an Lido DAO delegate. If you hold LDO, consider delegating to me: 0x3DDC7d25c7a1dc381443e491Bbf1Caa8928A05B0

I like this comparison of other buy back programs. Could've shared $FLUID model too: After $10M yearly revenue, buybacks start but with decreasing intensity as $FLUID price pumps.

Update: i should've wrote "Lido DAO discusses!" not proposes a buy back program. It is not the first it was proposed but i want the discussion to continue happening. It is unlikely to pass
