👉 Yam Finance to buyback the profit and build DeFi and crypto products to generate revenue
The important consideration here is beyond generating the revenue how it is allocated. YAM is right now at the very early stage of the project and Rebalancing and rationalizing the treasury is the very first step of the strong foundation of YAM.
Typically crypto projects mint a large number of tokens and use them over time but this is not the best approach as the token might end after X years. The Model explained below can be beneficial in treasury and project growth.
Metrics that YAM considers while calculating the profit and find out how much YAM is purchased quarterly -
Variables
treasuryNow
- The dollar-denominated value of the treasury at the current quarter snapshot, not including YAM reserves.
treasuryPrevious
- The dollar-denominated value of the treasury at the last quarterly snapshot, not including YAM reserves.
productProfit
- Subtract quarterly expenses (payroll, operating expenses, etc) from quarterly product revenues (UMA rewards, Yam Synths fees, sushi farming, etc).
investmentProfit
- subtract productProfit
from treasuryNow
and then subtract treasuryPrevious
from this value.
productProfitReinvestmentRate
- % of Product Profit
that are reinvested into the treasury
investmentProfitReinvestmentRate
- % of investmentProfit
that is reinvested into the treasury.
Process
Step 1: Determine if the treasury has grown quarter over quarter by subtracting treasuryPrevious
from treasuryNow
. If it has grown, proceed to step 2. If not, stop (no profit).
Step 2: Determine what portion of the treasury growth is from product revenue growth vs. investment value growth.
find productProfit
find investmentProfit
If one of the values above is negative, subtract it from the positive value. If both numbers are negative or this result is negative, then you probably miscalculated step 1.
Step 3: For positive values from step 2, multiply each by their respective reinvestment percentages
productProfit * productProfitReinvestmentRate
and
investementProfit * investmentProfitReinvestmentRate
Step 4: the output of step 3 is reinvested into the YAM treasury and can be used to re-balance. This step will involve manual adjustment of what funds move where to meet token targets. For example, this bucket contains 50% sushi and 50% UMA, and we are above our target of sushi and below our target for UMA, we would deposit the UMA directly into the treasury, but sell the sushi to ETH, DPI, or stable-coins.
Step 5: For any funds leftover from step 3, we would convert to ETH and use this ETH to buy YAM from the ETH/YAM sushiswap pool and use that YAM to pay contributors or fund incentives.
Example
treasuryPrevious
(Q2 treasury Snapshot) = $6,009,990 (not including YAM)
treasuryNow
= $7,000,000.00
productProfitReinvestment
= 90%
investmentProfitReinvestment
= 95%
Q3 Revenues and expenses*
UMA = +$240,000
xSUSHI = +$110,000
INDEX = +$50,000
Total = +$300,000 in product revenues
Q3 Contributor Expenses from Treasury = $200,000 for Payroll
productProfit
= $300,000 - $200,000 = $100,000
InvestmentProfit
= $7,000,000 - $6,009,990 - $300,000 = $690,010
Amount reinvested into Treasury = ($100,000 * 0.9) + (690,010 * 0.95) = $745,509.50
Amount used to buy YAM = $790,010 - 745,509.50 = $44,500.50
