But before few links to resources that can be useful

First a thread by the team on how to participate to APY https://twitter.com/dextfprotocol/status/1358026618573254658?s=20
Then one to complement this on LP and Impermanent Loss https://twitter.com/Be1garat/status/1357486663576993793?s=20
And one or #arbitrage as a substitute to #oracles and it's positive implications https://twitter.com/Be1garat/status/1356848326193385478?s=20
And also one to remind everyone that @dextfprotocol is also a Structured Note protocol, the first to my knowledge

And this is an opaque USD5 trillion market with fees that reach 10% https://twitter.com/Be1garat/status/1345265142330662914?s=20
And finally one specific for Floored Tokens which could be interesting for those who are worried of a correction https://twitter.com/Be1garat/status/1346075981597925378?s=20
Now on the tokenomics

My TLDR is

1. Shift of rewards from PM to Investors
2. Shift of rewards from providing liquidity against ETH to DEXTF
3. Simpler rewards
4. Smaller total distribution and lower inflation

And I welcome all as they create nice Feedback Loop
On the first point, until now the @dextfprotocol team incentivised LP to increase the liquidity of DEXTF token which is good and incentivised PM which worked well with hundreds of funds https://twitter.com/joker_on_chain/status/1359618112467984389?s=20
But now it's time to incentivise Investors!

Investors are the foundation of an Asset Management protocol, a strong community of investors will create natively enough incentive to support the whole project even when APY will eventually drop
The first Feedback Loop (FL1) that I want to highlight is

APY to Investors
⬇️
More Investor
⬇️
More TVL
⬇️
Higher Price
⬇️
Higher APY
⬇️
More Investors
The Portfolio Managers (PM) rewards have been reduced, but I would argue that they should be happy anyway

Mostly ppl were re-packaging their own holding and getting APY on it

This behaviour should not be particularly incentivised, unless other ppl also like those holdings
As a PM myself, I would rather have 50% APY on 10x my personal AUM as compared to 250% APY on my portfolio

I would need to do a good job and attract investors

So I also like that half of the PM rewards come only for performance!

Quality over quantity!

👏👏👏
So FL2

Better PM
⬇️
Higher Performance
⬇️
More Investors ➡️ see FL1
⬇️
Higher AUM for the good PM
⬇️
Higher PM APY
⬇️
More and better PM come to DEXTF
Then there is the Liquidity Mining

First there is no change to the rewards for the DEXTF-ETH-LP

But there is a change (strong) in incentive from LP-ETH to LP-DEXTF

I welcome this change too as it creates a nice sink for $DEXTF tokens
And also because it implies a shift where ppl will need to sell ETH (proposed APY at current size of 50%) to buy DEXTF (proposed APY >2000%)

At current sizes this shift is 100-200% larger than the total liquidity in DEXTF which means direct positive price impact
FL3

Higher $DEXTF price
⬇️
Higher APY for everything ➡️ see FL1 + FL2
⬇️
increase TVL ➡️ see FL1
⬇️
higher price for $DEXTF
But also this implies a large volume shifting on DEXTF pairs which makes the main ETH-DEXTF pool more attractive which means that the distribution can drop without affecting incentive and this lower inflation and improve pricing
Finally higher rewards for LP means more liquidity in the pools, this in turn lower slippage and improves arbitrage returns (see article above). And more arb mean more fees for LP and lower tracking error which in turns means better funds
FL4

Bigger LP on Funds
⬇️
Lower slippage
⬇️
More Arbitrage ➡️ better funds ➡️ more investors ➡️ FL1
⬇️
more volume
⬇️
more returns for LP
⬇️
bigger LP
Finally total token airdropped is slightly lower (I think around 15% lower if my calcs are right) and more delayed which has a direct positive impact on price
So as all changes to complex systems, this will need to be tweaked but it seems to me all the changes lead to positive feedback loops and I welcome all of them

That's why I will vote yes
For now it seems 6% voted and all positive

taking bets on success of the proposal
