Bond utilization on

Have you ever wondered what would happen if a DAO tried to market sell its own governance token?
Below you can see price impact for a swap using just 1% of the governance tokens in their treasury.

Let's take a look at how things have been going 🧵
Treasury diversification is the future, and
@a16z

Our bond marketplace will allow protocols to accrue stables and other tokens cost-efficiently.
1/ Enabling the creation of permissionless βond markets has empowered us to breach past the $50M Total Bonded Value mark!
Our friends from

1/ Options Liquidity Mining (OLM) is live and ready to change how incentives are approached in crypto, enabling projects to mint ERC-20 call options.
Permissionless. Configurable. More efficient. More sustainable.

@JPEGd_69
boasts the largest treasury in NFT Finance.
This case study explores how bonds played a vital role by positioning JPEG'd as a top holder of $CVX, fueling protocol growth and establishing a revenue flywheel.
1/ By issuing bonds via Bond Protocol,
@JPEGd_69
acquired ~159K $CVX, increasing total holdings by 14% and vaulting JPEG’d into the top 5 holders of $CVX
Let's dive into the details 🧵👇
7/ JPEG'd acquired even more $CVX via
@Bond_Protocol
and has become a top 5 holder amongst DAOs.
This acquisition of $CVX strengthens the platform's treasury and provides additional yield to its users.

See all those white dots? Yep those were all crypto projects established before 2017.
Curious how much of those were still building at the end of 2017?
✨Imagine ✨
Protocols having stable assets allowing them to stay solvent ⬆️⬆️⬆️🌡
DAOs bonding each other’s governance tokens for cooperative governance
POL & Strategic Assets creating passive cash flow for protocols.
The future is exciting.

• BadgerDAO's Treasury Management Framework
• Introduction to
@eBTCprotocol
• The Potential of $eBTC as a Treasury Asset
The borrowed $OHM is then paired with a protocols native token and deployed on an AMM.
Since OHM is inflationary and gOHM isn’t, the LTV continuously drops. This makes Flex Loans one of the most cost-efficient ways to acquire protocol-owned liquidity.
