Hey, thanks for your response and for going through the proposal!
To clarify, while Merkl and Metrom both offer liquidity incentive solutions, Metrom operates with a fundamentally different approach. We are direct competitors, and given the nature of both products, collaboration would be highly unlikely. However, here’s what sets Metrom apart:
-
KPI-Based Incentives – Unlike standard token distributions, Metrom allows protocols to tie incentives to TVL. This ensures that rewards drive meaningful outcomes rather than just temporary liquidity.
-
Range-Based Incentives – Our system enables liquidity mining campaigns that target specific price ranges, ensuring deeper liquidity exactly where it’s needed. This will help reduce the amount of incentive paid out for stable or pegged pools and could be used in other volatile pools.
-
Simplified Setup – Setting up a Metrom campaign takes less than a minute, making it significantly more accessible for teams that don’t have the technical bandwidth for complex configurations. We will also have a working SAFE dapp to create campaigns directly from within SAFE.
-
Zero Fees for Uniswap – Metrom does not charge fees for Uniswap campaigns.
-
Treasury Reimbursements & Recovery – Unused incentives (from unclaimed rewards or KPI-based reimbursements) return to the treasury. KPI based reimbursements could be claimed after every distribution and unclaimed rewards after 400 days.
We acknowledge that Merkl has its differentiators, such as their dual-token reward structure (Token A & Token B incentives). If the DAO sees value in that, we’re open to building a similar feature to match its functionality.
Additionally, Metrom can offer deep insights into incentive effectiveness, helping Uniswap growth teams analyze campaign performance and optimize future distributions. We see this as an opportunity to fine-tune incentives and ensure they deliver maximum impact.
