Curve’s CRV Crisis: 17M Grant or Bust? 💸

by

Behold, a proposal of such magnitude that it could make a monk weep! 🧑‍ clergyman A Swiss-based collective, Swiss Stake AG, has dared to request a staggering 17.45 million CRV tokens to fuel Curve’s 2026 ambitions. One might wonder-what could possibly be so vital that it demands such a sum? Perhaps a new coffee machine for the office? Or a grand plan to revolutionize decentralized finance? 🤔

The grant, it seems, is meant to sustain a team of 25 souls, who, in their quiet way, have been instrumental in Curve’s journey since 2020. Yet, one cannot help but ponder: why must they rely on the whims of the community, like beggars at a feast? 🍷

As for the token price, it has dipped, much like a man’s hopes after a long day at the office. Yet, the proposal insists that this grant will ensure “continuous work” and “core team stability.” One can only hope the team’s coffee supply remains abundant. ☕

Among the proposed projects are Llamalend V2, FXSwap, and cross-chain tools-ambitious endeavors that sound as thrilling as a lecture on accounting. And let us not forget the “ecosystem tools” and “modular AMM designs,” which, in simpler terms, mean “we’re trying to make this work, but please don’t ask questions.” 🤷‍♂️

Meanwhile, a rival proposal suggests funding via protocol fees, a “sustainable alternative” that sounds less like a solution and more like a gamble. But what is life without a little risk? 🎰

In the end, the fate of Curve hangs in the balance, much like a poorly tied shoelace. Will the community rally, or will they, as always, drift away? Only time will tell-and perhaps a few more cups of coffee. ☕
