### **Summary** This proposal aims to allocate **150M** **$ZTX tokens from the Community Fund** to add as rewards to the new ZTX Steer staking pool over a 3-month period, starting once the current one ends in early December 2025. _To understand more about ZTX governance, check this [full tutorial](https://ztx.discourse.group/t/creating-a-ztx-improvement-proposal-zip-rules-and-guidelines/18)_ ### **Rationale** This initiative provides a strong incentive for users to hold and stake ZTX, driving higher participation in both governance voting and the broader ZTX ecosystem. The goals of ZIP-004 are: 1. **Incentivize more holding and staking** β€” a large yield encourages long-term participation in the ZTX ecosystem. 2. **Return value to the community/holders** β€” all tokens used in this boost come from the Community Fund, ensuring the rewards stay within the community. 3. **Drive adoption of the new Steer pool** β€” by offering a significant yield boost, we make the new pool more compelling for both existing and new participants. ### **Proposal** Allocate a total budget of **150,000,000 $ZTX Tokens** from the ZTX Community Fund to add as additional rewards for $ZTX stakers in the upcoming 3-month ZTX Staking Pool on Steer. ### **Implementation** Governance initiates the process for the ZIP-004 feedback and vote. If it gets officially approved via Snapshot: 1. **150,000,000 $ZTX** **tokens** from the Community Fund are allocated to the upcoming 3-month-long Steer pool. 2. Daily rewards reflect the APR during the period. 3. After 3 months, the yield will be changed unless a new proposal extends or modifies the program. ---
