SURF’s upcoming governance will take place on The Boardwalk, where SURFGov holders can vote on proposals. Possibilities include changing the unstaking fee, the SURF token transfer fee, or the direction of the Swell, choosing how to invest community locked liquidity, and much more.
You’ll be able to make proposals by locking SURF tokens. If your proposal succeeds, the locked SURF will return to your wallet. If not, the SURF will be burned.
More information will be available soon.
SURF LP, Surf3D, Surf tokens, TOWELs, Surfboards, and Leviathans can be donated to The Swell in exchange for SURFGov tokens. All donations are permanently locked in The Swell, creating a section of the Whirlpool that produces dividends for community functions. The Swell can be directed by governance to feed SURF Dapps, pay developers and content creators, or contribute to community funds.
Initially, 35% of the Swell will be directed toward The Beach, SURF’s UBI protocol, where anyone can stake a TOWEL token and receive passive SURF income.
This percentage can be changed by governance.
SURF is a complex environment with many processes running under the surface. Dive in and earn SURF rewards by running gas-intensive tasks that benefit the entire ecosystem, such as payouts to SURF-affiliated NFTs. Fed by its own stream of dividends, the Atlantis Core UI subsidizes gas costs and rewards timely execution. Atlantis will eventually support custom tasks, giving users and developers access to automation.
Pep’s development of Atlantis core, allows for fully decentralized automatization of the SURF ecosystem. There are many transactions that need to be made to keep the cogwheels of the ecosystem spinning, these transactions cost gas fees. Atlantis core gives rewards for pushing through those transactions.
Due to unexpected high influx of SURF into SURFstacker, a second version of SURFstacker is being considered, where all current v1 Stacker positions will be transferred to, except for the Whirlpool Manager’s 200,000 SURF position. The integration of SURFstacker lite which is just around the corner and will also help move things along for everyone that is currently awaiting their 15% payout.
SURFstacker lite is quite similar to SURFstacker, with the exact variables not being decided on yet, but the maximum amount you can deposit will be a fraction of the original SURFstacker maximum deposit. A portion of every deposit into SURFstacker lite deposit will purchase S3D for the SURFstacker lite contract, which means SURFstacker lite will be earning it’s own dividends, helping to keep the line moving.
All new integrations in the ecosystem are designed to complement each other. SURFstacker lite will feed into SURFstacker v1, which feeds into S3D, which ultimately feeds into the whirlpool.
The SURF community can be considered a venture capital community with knowledge and talent amongst us. This offers opportunities for both us and talented developers to develop a synergy and help them launch their innovative projects. Through the SURF launchpad, developers can focus on what they do best; building, while the SURF community takes care of community management, marketing, audits, etc.
The Surf launchpad will be for dApps that don’t have any thematic link to SURF, but the launch of a project will directly benefit the SURF ecosystem.
