[LIP-2] Removal of BOLT token from Lightning Liquidity Mining programme

Proposals
#1

Summary

I propose to remove BOLT from Season 1 of Lightning Rewards programme and be disqualified from any future rounds.

The ZWAP rewards allocated to BOLT should be redistributed to the ZWAP LP pool instead.

Motivation :

There is overwhelming evidence that the BOLT team has been arbitrage trading ERC-20 tokens to ZRC-2 tokens. The way they are doing this is by minting new ZRC-2 BOLT and buying ERC-20 BOLT at 1/3 the cost.

The freshly minted ZRC-2 BOLT is then being sold on the market on ZilSwap, and the proceeds (in ZIL) is then transferred to what looks like a Binance deposit address.

Evidence listed below with titles -

1 Million ZRC–2 Bolt Minted

Specification :

Allowing arbitrage trading in the hands of teams with no set supply on selected platforms is a dangerous move, and this could easily happen again as BOLT is currently listed on ERC-20, ZRC-2, and BEP2 with no clear supply cap across all tokens generated on all 3 networks.

Therefore, I propose to remove BOLT from the Season 1 of the Lightning Rewards and from future rounds for creating tokens from thin air and selling on the community for their own gain.

The BOLT team abused their rights to arbitage ERC20 BOLT and ZRC2 BOLT price difference with their control of the smart contracts, aswell lied to what they were doing, they did not add liquidity but rather sold BOLT to ZIL on open market netting significant profit on the price difference

To further fine tune this proposal, I would like to suggest that BOLT should be removed and disqualified from Season 1 lightning rewards. Their Rewards will be redistributed to ZCH and REDC. This maintains the ZWAP rewards for PORT and ZLP (1/3 of pool each) while rewarding ZCH and REDC zwap holders (1/6 of pool each) which have projects that are worth developing

So taking into account all the inputs, what seems best for the zil community is

  1. Vote to Remove Bolt from Registered Tokens and disqualify for season 1 rewards and any subsequent rewards with immediate effect.
  2. Redistribute the ZWAP rewards from Bolt to ZCH and REDC in equal proportions
  • PORT = 165.27 ZWAP
  • ZLP = 165.27 ZWAP
  • ZCH = 82.635 ZWAP
  • REDC = 82.635 ZWAP

This way, we remove the bad apple, we maintain the rewards for PORT and ZLP and not penalise their ZWAP holders, and we reward the more deserving projects of ZCH and REDC and their zwap holders too. WIN-WIN!

After doing my own research, I agree completely for this. Bolt is priced at USD0.017 in exchanges, but priced at USD0.24 in zilswap. This created a huge arbitrage gain for Bolt team to dump their Bolt at Zil Hodlr and buy back from open exchange at a lower price. Totally unethical.

When wil end this vote? And is it immediately official and active?

This forum is a preliminary gauge of interest by the team. If the community is interested in pushing forward with it, an offical vote will be put up at vote.zilliqa.com

Disagree to ZCH and RedC getting the rewards since their % was extremely low. $CARB was left out despite showing itself as one of the earliest token minted on zilswap.

It should be fairly given to ZLP and Port.

The token is a complete joke and I think the only people who will disagree with this proposal are the people who created BOLT. My worry about the proposal is that it could be easily manipulated by BOLT devs as it was done in the initial vote. An address that held a huge supply of BOLT managed to push through BOLT in the first proposal

Bolt should not have been placed in season 1, you cant do shit with it besides trading. It does not meet the requirements.

This poll is utter BS. Not a single comment defending BOLT, not a single person in the ZIL community would want BOLT dumping on the ZIL community, the against votes are RAPIDLY catching up!! Fake accounts r being made.

Zil get rid of this shit and stop supporting it, no more ZIL grants, ZIL support.

Delist! It’s on 4 chains!
