[RRC-45] Fund Phase 1 of RARI Staking Rewards (25,000 RARI)

Summary

This proposal seeks approval to authorize the staking rewards distributor contract to spend up to 25,000 RARI from the treasury, via an ERC-20 approve() call. These funds will be used to implement Phase 1 of the governance staking program on Rari Chain. The staking program itself was approved via RRC-34: Enable RARI Staking, and the reward amount for Phase 1 was determined in RRC-43: RARI Staking Incentives Program.

Details

  • Staking Contract: Rewards are distributed proportionally to the amount of $RARI staked.
  • Target APR for Phase 1: 25% annualized, based on an estimated 300,000 $RARI migrating and delegating to Rari Chain.
  • Reward Formula:
    RARI incentives = 300,000 * 25% * (4 / 12) = 25,000 RARI

Next Steps

If approved, the treasury will execute an approve() transaction to allow the staking rewards distributor to pull up to 25,000 RARI for immediate deployment.

Hi! Thanks for moving this forward. Phase 1 is scheduled for four months, which is included in the formula but is not explicitly mentioned in this proposal. Is that a parameter that goes into the approve function? e.g., distribute 25,000 RARI over 4 months to stakers.

Yes, good question. Before this proposal goes live, Tally will deploy the staking rewards distributor a contract that distributes the approved 25,000 RARI in rewards over 4 months to stakers.

Everything looks good here, the DAO has been in support of RARI Staking, can’t wait for this to go live.

I love seeing momentum build around $RARI staking!

This treasury allocation feels like a solid move—low overhead, clear math, and strong upside for community engagement. A 25% APR target is a compelling incentive to kick off Phase 1 with serious traction.

Thanks so much, @coolhorsegirl for the proposal - I fully support this proposal that impliments Phase 1 of RRC-43.

I did have a question regarding the Phase 1 rewards, that maybe you or the RRC-43 proposal author, @Jaf might help clarify my understanding.

If the rewards of 25,000 RARI for Phase 1 are over a 4 month timeframe, what happens regarding staker’s rewards who keep their stake in the pool, during Phase’s 2 and 3? Do their staked RARI rewards reduce to 15% and 10% respectively, if their staked RARI remains in the pool at the end of each phase?
