Uniswap Community Proposal: Plan to Deploy v3 Staker Fork on Polygon Network to Test New Liquidity Incentive Program

Chain Catcher news, the Uniswap community proposal has recently been put forward, where the community will collaborate with the Polygon DeFi team to seek a new Staker solution, incentivizing liquidity through individual LPs rather than liquidity managers or automated strategy operators. Previously, in October 2021, Ribbon proposed a short-term incentive program for Uniswap v3 Staker, which ended with 77% of the rewards going to only 14 accounts, resulting in an unfair outcome that caused dissatisfaction within the community.

To address this issue, the team forked the Uniswap v3 Staker, and the forked contract has been deployed on the Polygon network. They are currently completing an open-source UI for LP's staking/non-staking positions and for the DAO to easily create incentive programs.

The Uniswap community stated that the new staker will provide a way for the DAO or any organization to incentivize liquidity on Uniswap v3, while allowing rewards to be distributed more broadly to LPing asset holders, rather than just a few automated strategy operators. (Source link)
