Following a successful vote period of 48 hours, we are delighted to announce the results of the community vote on liquidity staking periods. Liquidity staking is, of course, an important part of our ecosystem and we are very grateful to all that choose to support our project by staking their tokens in such a way. Liquidity Staking ensures there will always be enough liquidity to cover incoming platform requests via the fiat payment gateway.
However, as important as liquidity staking is, the issue of Liquidity staking period does not affect all token holders and so any adjustment to this element constitutes a minor change, and in accordance with section 3.2 of our whitepaper - Transitioning to Full Democracy, which states: in years 3-4 of network operation ‘minor changes in the operation of SingularityNET: a 51% majority of AGI token votes’ and so this was the basis we used to calculate the winner of the vote.
The Results
| Option | AGI Counted | Number of voters |
|---|---|---|
| Extend to 180 Days | 9,399,731.15 | 48 |
| Extend to 90 Days | 15,833,130.64 | 42 |
| Stay at 30 Days | 25,347,726.46 | 28 |
| Total | 50,580,588.25 | 118 |
This means there will be no change to the current staking periods and will remain on at 30-days. Please find below an updated schedule for the staking windows.
