Disable the Creation of New Funding Streams with USDT Limits

Summary

Temporarily disable the creation of new funding streams with USDT limits to protect the treasury during current market conditions.

Why This Matters

USDT-limited streams were a great feature when markets were stable. But when WAVES price keeps declining, two serious problems emerge:

1. Forced Selling at the Worst Times

Stream recipients must sell WAVES to meet their USDT commitments—regardless of price. This creates selling pressure exactly when the market is already down.

2. Streams That Never End

As WAVES drops, more tokens are needed to fulfill the same USDT amount. A 6-month stream can stretch to 12+ months, locking treasury resources indefinitely and blocking new initiatives.

What This Proposal Does

  • Blocks new USDT-limited streams until conditions improve
  • All existing streams continue normally—commitments will be honored
  • WAVES-denominated streams still available for new projects
  • Fully reversible through future governance vote

The Bottom Line

This is a proactive, temporary measure. The feature remains valuable and will return—but pausing it now protects our collective resources during uncertain times.

Vote yes to protect the treasury.


Responsible governance in action.
