Summary

Proposal to Unpause SHU and Create & Fund the LBP

Unpause SHU

Shutter DAO 0x36 will unpause the SHU token.

The Shutter DAO 0x36 token (SHU, 0xe485E2f1bab389C08721B291f6b59780feC83Fd7) is currently “paused” (i.e. non-transferable). In order to create the LBP and eventually have the SHU be liquid, SHU needs to be set as unpaused (i.e. transferable) before the LBP. If approved and executed on-chain by Shutter DAO 0x36, this part of the proposal would unpause SHU and thus enable SHU to be transferred.

Create & Fund the LBP

Shutter DAO 0x36 will create and fund the liquidity bootstrapping pool (LBP) on Fjord Foundry with the following key parameters:

  • Project Token: 40,000,000 SHU

  • Collateral Token: 100,000 USDC

  • Start Weights: 99% SHU / 1% USDC

  • End Weights: 1% SHU / 99% USDC

  • Start Date & Time: Wednesday, 21 Feb 2024 - 12:00 UTC

  • End Date & Time: Sunday, 25 February 2024 - 23:59 UTC

I disagree with this statement personally:

  • Raise Liquidity Collateral: 40,000,000 SHU in the LBP ensures that there are sufficient tokens for sale to raise $2,000,000 - $5,000,000 in liquidity collateral at a reasonable token price: $0.05 - $0.125.*

Min reasonable price in my opinion cannot be below 15c and should be much higher anyways.

we are in the bull market and Shutter is really a great project with very bright minds.

Yess, it s good tactic to follow the market sentiment.

I personally think that the token unpausing action is such a significant decision in itself that it should be decoupled from any other action and decision, separating these two sections of this proposal into each of their own.

I agree with @tatu on the importance of separating the DAO vote. I mean we definitely need to Unpause SHU for the LBP. But in any case, I think it should be a different vote.

Also tend to agree with @acidbird, I think SHU should be valued above 15c. However, I also acknowledge that the market can be very stupid sometimes.

@Cornelis what are the risks of setting params assuming the appetite and the token price set by the market might be higher? What would be reasonable params to make this happen? Is there a way for the community to move the params based on their assumptions and run some simulations?

Thanks @Cornelis and Artis team for this. We also agree with @tatu that we should have a dedicated proposal to unpause the SHU token.

Regarding the valuation of Shutter Token for the LBP, we agree that we should be ambitious, at 15c this means the FDV would be at 150M, very ambitious but not completely unrealistic.

We would like to have more rational from @Cornelis behind this “reasonable token price: $0.05 - $0.125” as we weren’t able to find any in the initial proposal ? Moreover, if there are some benchmarks from successful vs unsuccessful LBP due to ambitious target price this could help ?

The LBP proposal sounds reasonable to bootstrap things. I disagree with acidbird of setting a lower limit of 15c, as although Shutter is a strong project fundamentally, the equating 150mUSD FDV may seem difficult to justify on a fair basis compared to where things currently stand (I am naturally open to changing my view if evidenced by a good data fundament).

Agree that the decision to unpause the SHU token could be beneficial to be kept as a separated discussion topic.

Both proposals on Fractal passed and were successfully executed.

As a result, the Shutter Token (SHU) LBP was successfully deployed on-chain and it is now listed as “upcoming” on the Fjord Foundry website:

Key Information:

  • Start: Wednesday, 21 Feb 2024 - 12:00 UTC
  • End: Sunday, 25 February 2024 - 23:59 UTC
  • Chain: Ethereum Mainnet

  • Available to Purchase with: USDC
  • Starting Token Price: $0.247 USDC
