QuickSwap Integrates Merkl Tree for Easy LP and Farming Rewards

QuickSwap has detailed its Treasury mechanism, which currently holds $3.79M in assets ($1.86M in QUICK, $1.93M in other assets). **How the flywheel works:** - Every swap generates fees that become holder revenue - Revenue splits between QUICK buybacks and yield-generating Treasury assets - Treasury assets deploy across liquidity provision, lending protocols, staking, and vaults **The compounding effect:** - More fees → increased holder revenue - More revenue → larger buybacks + Treasury growth - Larger buybacks → reduced QUICK supply - Bigger Treasury → more yield generation - More yield → additional buybacks and growth The Treasury provides strategic flexibility for funding incentives, supporting liquidity growth, and maintaining resilience during market downturns. QuickSwap plans quarterly reports to track Treasury holdings and progress. The model focuses on value accrual rather than short-term gains, strengthening the protocol's financial architecture over time.

**QuickSwap has opened a governance vote** on burning 20 million QUICK tokens from the community treasury. **Key Details:** - QUICK token holders can vote on the proposal through Snapshot - Voting period ends Friday, July 3 at 4:00 PM UTC - The proposal would reduce circulating supply by removing tokens from the treasury **Vote here:** [QuickSwap Governance Proposal](https://snapshot.box/#/s:quickvote.eth/proposal/0x8c6dcd025ead393ed4588d6028038f1e2b97c31aff8d419689191484c69ed670) This follows a previous governance discussion in September 2024 about implementing a 100% burn mechanism for QUICK tokens bought back through protocol revenue.

QuickSwap has burned over 80 million $QUICK tokens, valued at $612,000. This represents a significant reduction in token supply, with the burns accelerating over time. **Key figures:** - 80M+ tokens permanently removed from circulation - $612K current value of burned tokens - Follows previous milestone of 60M tokens burned in March The burn mechanism continues to reduce token supply alongside ongoing buyback programs, creating increased scarcity for the $QUICK token on the Polygon-based DEX.
