Hi @Eren_DAOplomats, thank you — this is a core part of our design.
1. Preventing farming
We don’t use instant reward loops. Instead:
-
Multi-step on-chain actions (min. 2 protocols)
-
Delayed incentives (7–14 days)
-
Net position validation (not just transactions)
This discourages “farm & dump” behavior and promotes retention.
2. Retention metrics (60–90 days)
We track real behavior, not vanity metrics:
-
% of active wallets at 30/60/90 days
-
% of retained liquidity (DOC, lending, LP)
-
Re-engagement (repeat interactions)
-
Cohort-based TVL quality
-
Transaction frequency over time
3. Post-event strategy
We extend each cohort through partner-driven online initiatives:
-
Live webinars
-
On-chain campaigns (e.g., Galxe)
-
Educational follow-ups
These are not included in this budget, but are part of our standard execution model and have been run with ecosystem partners before.
Success definition:
Users who retain capital and repeatedly interact with Rootstock protocols over 60–90 days.
IMPORTANT: I’m also completely open to suggestions on how to make these activities truly successful for all partners and help Rootstock become even better known and more widely used.
Thank again for your comment, and I’m available to answer any further questions you may have. If anything is unclear, please let me know, and I’ll gladly try to explain it more clearly.
