How It Works:

- Revenue automatically splits to your payout address
- All transactions are trackable onchain
Benefits:
- Cleaner user experience with no extra fee line items

dYdX Details Token Utility Strategy
dYdX outlined its comprehensive strategy to maximize **$DYDX token utility** through multiple interconnected mechanisms. **Current Features:** - Staking $DYDX earns USDC from protocol fees while securing the network - **25% of net protocol fees** fund monthly buybacks (4M+ DYDX already repurchased) - Purchased tokens are staked to validators, boosting security **Coming Soon:** - **5-10% validator commission discounts** for stakers - Direct USDC ↔ DYDX swapping via Osmosis integration - One-click staking after purchase **The Strategy:** Create a flywheel where trading activity feeds back into token value through rewards, governance, and network security. Each component reinforces the others - trade to earn, stake to secure, govern to steer. dYdX emphasizes that protocol success should directly connect to governance token performance, strengthening the community-run network.
