Meta Pool DAO: Open Call for Strategic MPIP Proposals

Hi community,

MPIPs have become a powerful tool for the Meta Pool DAO community. Most of the major changes in Meta Pool have been shaped through this community voting mechanism.

Looking ahead at the challenges facing the Web3 ecosystem, it’s clear that we need a roadmap of MPIPs that can help address current and future needs.

Although MPIPs are permissionless and can be proposed by any user, creating a coordinated space to share, prepare, and organize proposals can help ensure that the best ideas get the support and approval of the Meta Pool community.

This post is partly a proposal and partly a Request for Proposals (RFP). The aim is to guide upcoming MPIPs around key focus areas:

Main points to focus on:

  • Financial sustainability for the Meta Pool DAO
  • Governance improvements
  • Meta Pool infrastructure
  • AI @ Meta Pool

Not all proposals need to request funding from the DAO treasury. In fact, proposals that only request funds without a clear plan to deliver value may not be well received.

To kick things off, I’m sharing one drafted MPIPs:

I encourage anyone interested in presenting a proposal to post it here in the forum, with an attached MPIP document for community review. Leave it open for comments.

Thanks!

:grinning_face: MPIPs have proven to be an excellent way for the community to share their ideas and projects regarding governance. :backhand_index_pointing_right: They initially allow all users to comment on improvements to the proposal, and based on this, a final proposal :page_facing_up: can be developed for voting by the @Meta_Pool community.
The priority areas are interesting :100: , and communities and groups are invited to share their ideas in a structured manner with an MPIP.:ok_hand:

Following up on the open call for strategic MPIPs, here’s a draft concept I’d like community feedback on.

mpDAO Liquidity Provider Rewards — 12-Month Locked LP Only (Rhea mpDAO/stNEAR)
Why now: This aligns with the thread’s priorities (financial sustainability + governance). Goal: deepen durable liquidity, reduce slippage, and better align long-term incentives for mpDAO.

TL;DR

  • What: Monthly mpDAO rewards for wallets that lock LP for 12 months in the mpDAO/stNEAR pool on Rhea.

  • How: Rewards distributed pro-rata to each wallet’s share of the 12-month locked LP; rewards themselves are locked 300 days and claimable in the Meta Pool app.

  • Pilot target: $25k locked TVL with $5k/year in mpDAO rewards (≈ 20% indicative APY), paid monthly (~$416.67).

Full draft with details: MPIP: mpDAO Liquidity Provider Rewards — 12-Month Locked LP

Some points where I’d love input

  1. Does a 12-month-only lock best drive durable liquidity?

  2. Is $5k/year a reasonable pilot budget to aim for ~$25k locked (~20% APY)?

  3. Measurement: daily average over the month vs. end-of-month snapshot to reduce timing games?

Thanks in advance for the feedback and any comparative data from similar programs.

Any way for you to borrow against stNEAR or NEAR?

That is something already working on Rhea.finance

Why not launch a 3-month pilot and make it more aggressive?

Let’s allocate a budget of $2,000 USD from the Meta Pool treasury through mpDAO for this period, with the goal of bringing in at least $40,000 in new TVL, a growth target of +50%.

yes here: RHEA Finance

Thanks for the proposal Alan. Worth discussing. Would you be able to please create it as a standalone, separate post so it is easy to find and keeps conversation focused?

Could even post it as a draft on the Metapool MPIP page: https://www.metapool.app/mpip/

Thanks for the recommendation! I just posted it a standalone post to focus the conversation:

Hello guys, here is a draft about a proposal to have voting delegation on Meta Pool.
Will appreciate any feedback on it :wink:

Love this clear structure + focus areas will make MPIPs way more impactful. Excited to see how the recurrent BTC buy idea sparks discussion.
