1. "We plan to roll out an alpha launch with Compound strategies end of Aug/Sept. Then once stable, we plan to expand into $BAL farming. Stay tuned for the future Medium posts on how these strategies will work.
2. Our vision is one of community ownership. A significant portion of the token supply will go to the community via the public rewards and community initiatives pool. Shortly after launch, we will release liquidity mining rewards to get the $APY governance tokens in the hands of the community.
3. Finally, to further decentralize, we will host a small IDO."
