- Programmatic buyback proposal by Spark led by Phoenix Labs.
- Voting available until November 28, 2025.
- Enhances treasury management and aligns SPK holder incentives.
Sparkโs governance proposal introduces a programmatic buyback mechanism, dedicating 10% of surplus treasury assets for monthly SPK buybacks. This aligns with practices seen in dYdX and MakerDAO, enhancing token value and DeFi protocol resilience.
The proposal aims to strengthen treasury management and benefit Spark token holders through a programmatic buyback mechanism, reflecting on historical precedence and market dynamics.
Sparkโs proposal centers on a programmatic buyback mechanism involving Phoenix Labs and SparkDAO, automating token buybacks with surplus funds.
Led by Phoenix Labs, the proposal outlines a mechanism to automate SPK buybacks from the SubDAO Proxy surplus, with increasing scale as available treasury grows.
โThe SubDAO Proxy Management Plan is a foundational step toward sustainable treasury management and aligning long-term incentives for SPK holders. By automating buybacks with excess protocol income, we ensure that growth directly benefits the community.โ โ Sam MacPherson, CEO & Co-Founder, Phoenix Labs
Key financial shifts involve redistribution of treasury surplus towards SPK, with no institutional grants announced, focusing on revenue-generated funding.
The proposal is expected to influence DeFi practices, aligning incentives and potentially altering token valuation through structured buybacks.
Historical trends, including MakerDAOโs DAI buybacks, suggest potential long-term benefits for the Spark community by reducing supply and enhancing security.
Market reception remains positive, with community discussions emphasizing transparency, invoked by the programmatic approach to treasury and buybacks.
