Summary
To further improve how the ARK Alliance runs and to strengthen a healthy ecosystem cycle, this proposal introduces a dual adjustment — Inflow × Outflow — across three areas: incentives, re-staking, and compounding.
Purpose
- Inflow — Boost new growth and speed up market expansion;
- Outflow — Refine the release pace and support price stability.
Through this dual adjustment, the Alliance moves toward a steady positive cycle:
New inflow grows → Alliance returns rise → Consensus strengthens → Release pace improves → Price holds steady → Market confidence grows → New inflow continues.
Implementation Details
- Strengthening the Incentive System (Inflow)
1.1)Higher New-Inflow Reward for Studios
The new-inflow reward for studios at Coefficient 6 and below will be set as a long-term rule, no longer tied to one-off campaigns.
Adjustment: Daily reward 2% → 3% (no threshold)
Purpose: Improve long-term returns at the base level and support stable community operation.
1.2) New ARK Reward Pool for Studios at Coefficient 2 ~ 4
A dedicated ARK reward pool will be set up for studios, funded by static ARK burns.
How it works:
- Weekly net inflow positive → Rewards split by each studio's share of new inflow
- Weekly net inflow negative → No reward this round, but no impact on other earnings
Pool size: Weekly pool = 1% ~ 3% of new staking inflow that week (no threshold)
- Improving the Re-Staking Mechanism (Outflow × Long-Term Staking)
Users can now upgrade directly to long-term staking, without going through turbo loss.
Adjustment:
- Existing staking plans can be upgraded directly to 720 days
- Both principal and earnings can be moved into the upgrade
Example: A user with 1,000 ARK principal and 1,000 ARK earnings can upgrade directly to a 2,000 ARK / 720-day stake.
Purpose: Make upgrades easier, raise the long-term staking ratio, and steady the market pace.
- Optimizing the Compounding Mechanism (Outflow)
Current state: Compounded earnings generate daily alliance rewards, which keep flowing into circulation after release.
Adjustment: Alliance rewards and tier evaluation will be separated —
- Alliance rewards → based on principal only
- Tier evaluation → based on principal + compounded earnings
Purpose: Slow down the build-up of passive compounded returns, and reinforce "reward follows contribution".
Note: Delayed Release Ratio — synchronized update
Release Amount = Daily Positive Net Inflow × (10% ~ 40%) (previously 20% ~ 30%)
This brings the release pace closer to the actual daily positive contribution.
Schedule
- Launch dates for each part will be announced after the proposal is approved;
- The front-end will be updated to show the new rules;
- All operations run on-chain, fully transparent.
