## **Summary**

This proposal aims to allocate **100M**  **$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 March 2026.

# **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 goal of ZIP-007 is the same as previous Staking ZIPs

1. **Incentivize more holding and staking** — a large yield encourages long-term participation in the ZTX ecosystem.

2. **Return value to the community/holders** — 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** — 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 **100,000,000 $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-007 feedback and vote.

If it gets officially approved via Snapshot:

1. **100,000,000 $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.
