$FLUID Buybacks & Growth Strategy 🌊 This forum post defines a new revenue allocation model, updates tokenomics, and sets the economic framework for Fluid’s next phase.

Fluid today: • $3B+ market size • Top 4 lending market on Ethereum • #2 Ethereum DEX by volume & fees • $10M+ annualized revenue In ~15 months, Fluid has established itself in the top tier of DeFi.

The next 6-month targets are ambitious: • $10B market size • $30M annualized revenue At this scale, Fluid can provide deeper liquidity, sustain a diversified revenue base, reinvest more aggressively, and onboard more institutional players.

Growth drivers: • Distribution expansion (Juplend x Jupiter, new partners, multi-chain deployments) • New protocols (DEX Lite, Jupiter Lend, USD Lite Vault, DEX V2 + new protocols) • $FLUID token governance & buybacks • Revenue flywheel

Fluid protocol is fully governed by $FLUID token holders, with no equity behind it. The new forum post introduces a discussion on possible buyback frameworks.

Timeline: • Community discussion open now • Governance vote to follow • If approved, buybacks begin Oct 1, with a 6-month evaluation period

Fluid has entered the top tier of DeFi. Now it's time to decide how to balance growth, sustainability, and tokenholder alignment as we scale our TVL and revenue. Read the full proposal & join the discussion:
