Introduce the BTC Vault (Sandbox Mode) on the RootstockCollective dApp (Onchain)
Vote: For
Rationale:
At essentially zero cost and risk to the Collective (1 USDRIF checkpoint, sandbox managed entirely by RootstockLabs with 100 USD deposit caps), this is a low-friction way to explore async vault mechanics for rBTC. No reason to block it.
Introduce a 90% Maximum Allocation to Backers to Ensure Builders Retain Meaningful Rewards (Onchain)
Vote: For
Rationale:
The current 100% allocation ceiling creates a race-to-the-bottom where builders compete on reward allocation rather than value creation. 90% is a reasonable first step that addresses the worst misalignment without dramatically restructuring incentives. We note @Manu’s argument for a fixed 50%, which has merit as a longer-term direction, but starting conservative and iterating makes sense here. No new smart contract risk since the mechanism is already implemented at the protocol level.
