Juno was built as a 100% community driven initiative Without any VCs funds backing it that means it has to rely on the community pool for funding the Development on the network. Currently only 2% of the inflation is going towards the community Pool, which is a very negligible amount.
In order to continue funding development and have a Sustainable Ecosystem Juno requires a strong treasury/community Pool. This proposal requests to Increase the current community tax from 2% to 10% until at least the next halving which will result in the following benefits:
Reduction of some part of the daily sell pressure on the Juno token because the inflation going towards stakers will decrease by 8%. The apr of staking Juno would fall from 39.91% to roughly around ~36.66%.
The community pool would increase roughly by ~1.5million Juno (instead of ~300k Juno with the current tax) till the next halving.If this becomes a permanent change then the community pool would increase by ~9.2 million Juno in total (instead of ~1.8 million Juno with the current tax) till the end of the Juno’s 12 year inflation period.
A stronger Community Pool will enable Juno community to conduct L1 to L1 swaps Which will enable Juno to have a diversified treasury.
If Juno community pool doesn’t have any funds flowing into it right now it might end up in similar position like Cosmos hub in a few years ,where only $13 million out of the $3.2 billion chain valuation sit in the community pool which is around 0.4% of the current total supply. Even the Cosmos hub community has proposed to increase the community tax to 10% to increase the communtiy pool funds.
