What’s the crypto economic structure of Meta Pool?

In Meta Pool value is captured in three ways:

1. stNEAR fees that come from NEAR staking rewards which is a fixed 4% of the total staking rewards.

2. Liquid Unstaking fees which will be variable ~0.3% - 3% (depends on existing liquidity and operation amount, similar to standard swap pools).

3. mpDAO Reserve: all revenue generated on the platform from staking and liquidity pool fees is sent to the Treasury and handled by the smart contract in the form of stNEAR tokens.

What makes Meta Pool stand out and what are its long-term plans?

The vision behind Meta Pool and our mpDAO tokenomics is to create a way for individuals to be self sovereign and create on-chain value for a blockchain protocol.

Additionally Meta Pool is keeping its vision intact to help NEAR Protocol become more decentralized and censorship resistant for the long run.

At Meta Pool, we are here for the long run. Our project is backed by more than 10 VC firms that invest in projects all around the NEAR ecosystem.
