Proposal

To enhance ARK’s market stability and liquidity adjustment capacity, and to serve as a complementary mechanism to the RBS, this proposal introduces the Market Balance Reserve (MBR). The MBR will be funded by ETH burnback returns, forming a USDT reserve pool that can be activated when necessary to help maintain market balance, order, and overall ecosystem health.

Purpose

  1. Optimize the utilization of ETH burnback funds and strengthen protocol resilience.
  2. Work in synergy with RBS to form a “Auto-Stabilization × Reserve Support × Continuous Balance” framework.
  3. Enhance overall market stability and long-term confidence in ARK.

 Implementation Details

  • Funding Source: ETH burnback returns
  • Initial Scale: Equivalent to USD 1,000,000
  • Reserve Form: Stablecoin (USDT)
  • Operational Principles:
  • 1) The MBR differs from a one-way buyback; it serves as a two-way liquidity balancing mechanism, capable of executing both buy and sell operations when necessary.
  • 2) When the reserve exceeds USD 2,000,000, the surplus will be used for ARK buyback and burn.
  • 3) When the reserve falls below USD 1,000,000, it will be replenished by subsequent ETH burnback inflows.
  • 4) No fixed frequency — operations are triggered only when necessary to stabilize market conditions.
  • Relation to RBS:  - RBS remains the core automated price stabilization module of ARK.  - MBR functions as a controlled, transparent auxiliary reserve mechanism.  - Both share the same goal: reducing volatility and promoting healthy, sustainable market conditions.

Implementation Schedule

  • Execution will commence within 48 hours after proposal approval.
  • The reserve address and all operation records will be publicly disclosed via official DAO announcements, ensuring full transparency and verifiability.
