Treasury
The Obelisk Treasury
The Obelisk Treasury is the foundation of the protocol’s financial architecture—responsible for maintaining long-term stability, funding operations, and reinforcing deflationary mechanics.
Rather than relying on emissions or external capital, Obelisk leverages protocol-owned liquidity and revenue-generating activities to grow and deploy its treasury with precision.
Purpose of the Treasury
The treasury is designed to serve multiple critical functions:
Risk Management Acts as a buffer against market volatility and systemic shocks, helping to stabilize protocol operations in uncertain conditions.
Protocol Growth Funds ongoing development, infrastructure upgrades, and ecosystem expansion—ensuring Obelisk evolves without depending on inflationary incentives.
Community and Governance Supports governance initiatives, community proposals, and long-term contributor incentives—all tied to measurable impact and alignment.
Buybacks and Burns Executes strategic buybacks using surplus revenue. All purchased $OBLSK is permanently burned, reinforcing deflationary pressure.
Reward Optimization Adjusts staking and LP rewards based on protocol performance, treasury health, and market activity—ensuring yields remain sustainable.
Fee Structure
The Obelisk protocol imposes a few fees to fund its treasury. Below is a table detailing each fee type, its purpose, and the typical rate.
Transaction Fees
Charged on $OBLSK volume
All fees coming from Meteora and LPs
Staking Fees
Applied when entering or exiting staking
0% on entry, 1.5% on exit
LP Fees
Charged on withdrawing liquidity from pools
0% on entry, 0% on exit
Zap Function Fees
Applied for using the Zap function to create LPs
0.25%
All collected fees are directed to the treasury and deployed strategically—maximizing protocol resilience while maintaining competitive participation incentives.
Managing Treasury Funds
Treasury funds are managed through protocol rules and community governance, with real-time adjustments handled by Obelisk’s internal systems.
Key principles include:
Autonomous Adjustments Buybacks, burns, and reward modifications are executed based on measurable protocol metrics—not arbitrary decisions.
Governance Oversight Strategic treasury allocations, such as investments or community grants, are subject to proposal and on-chain voting.
Transparency & Auditing Treasury flows, actions, and performance are made public, audited regularly, and aligned with the long-term interest of $OBLSK holders.
The Obelisk Treasury is not a passive vault—it’s an active engine of sustainability, value capture, and alignment. Every dollar that enters is used with purpose. Every token removed is burned forever.
