# Kamino
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
Kamino is a Solana-based DeFi protocol providing managed liquidity vaults that automatically rebalance concentrated liquidity positions. As of 2025, Kamino vaults represent over 95% of xSOL-SOL liquidity on Solana AMMs, demonstrating that users prefer third-party managed positions over manual liquidity provision.
|
||||
Kamino is a Solana DeFi protocol specializing in automated liquidity management for concentrated liquidity AMMs. The platform manages over 95% of xSOL-SOL liquidity on Solana AMMs through automated vault strategies that rebalance positions, demonstrating strong product-market fit for LST liquidity provision.
|
||||
|
||||
## Timeline
|
||||
- **2025-03-05** — Sanctum selected Kamino vaults for INF-SOL liquidity incentives, citing that 95%+ of existing xSOL-SOL liquidity comes from Kamino managed positions
|
||||
- **2025-03-05** — INF-SOL Kamino vault demonstrated outperformance versus 100% INF HODL strategy, attributed to high capital velocity (trading volume relative to TVL)
|
||||
- **2025-03-05** — Sanctum proposes using Kamino vaults for INF-SOL liquidity incentives, citing Kamino's dominance in xSOL-SOL liquidity management
|
||||
- **2025-03-08** — Sanctum proposal passes, authorizing Kamino team to manage up to 2.5M CLOUD in incentives with dynamic rate adjustment to maintain 15% APY target

# Sanctum: Should Sanctum use up to 2.5M CLOUD to incentivise INF-SOL liquidity via Kamino Vaults?
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
Proposal to deploy up to 2.5M CLOUD tokens as liquidity mining incentives for INF-SOL Kamino vaults, offering 20% APY for the first month then 15% thereafter, to deepen native SOL liquidity for INF. The proposal addresses insufficient liquidity depth for large depositors and positions INF as a liquidity nexus for Solana LSTs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Market Data
|
||||
- **Outcome:** Passed
|
||||
- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
|
||||
- **Platform:** Futardio (Autocrat v0.3)
|
||||
- **Duration:** 2025-03-05 to 2025-03-08
|
||||
- **Target TVL:** $2.5M cap
|
||||
- **Expected Duration:** 6+ months at target TVL
|
||||
|
||||
## Mechanism Design
|
||||
The proposal uses dynamic incentive adjustment where Kamino team controls emission rates to maintain 15% APY target as TVL and CLOUD price fluctuate. This represents a hybrid approach: futarchy determines whether to allocate treasury resources, but operational execution (rate adjustments) is delegated to Kamino rather than governed by additional markets.
|
||||
|
||||
## Context
|
||||
- INF outperforms mSOL and jitoSOL historically but lacks liquidity depth
|
||||
- 95%+ of xSOL-SOL AMM liquidity comes from Kamino managed vaults
|
||||
- INF-SOL Kamino vault has outperformed 100% INF HODL due to high capital velocity
|
||||
- Industry standard for LP incentives is 15% combined APY
|
||||
|
||||
## Significance
|
||||
Demonstrates futarchy application to treasury-funded growth initiatives where the proposal is economically straightforward (proven incentive model, clear problem, established partner). Low trading volume suggests market viewed this as obviously beneficial rather than requiring price discovery.

# Sanctum: Should Sanctum use up to 2.5M CLOUD to incentivise INF-SOL liquidity via Kamino Vaults?
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
Sanctum proposed allocating up to 2.5M CLOUD tokens to incentivize INF-SOL liquidity through Kamino managed vaults. The proposal offered LPs a 20% combined yield for the first month, then 15% thereafter, targeting $2.5M TVL cap with estimated 6-month duration. The rationale was that INF outperforms major LSTs (mSOL, jitoSOL) but lacks sufficient SOL native liquidity for large depositors, and that Kamino vaults represent 95%+ of existing xSOL-SOL liquidity.
|
||||
|
||||
## Market Data
|
||||
- **Outcome:** Passed
|
||||
- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
|
||||
- **Resolution:** 2025-03-08 (3-day window)
|
||||
- **Capital at stake:** Up to 2.5M CLOUD tokens
|
||||
- **Target TVL:** $2.5M
|
||||
- **Incentive structure:** 20% APY month 1, then 15% APY for ~5 months
|
||||
|
||||
## Significance
|
||||
This proposal demonstrates futarchy governance applied to treasury-funded liquidity incentives, a common DeFi operation. The decision to use Kamino vaults rather than direct AMM liquidity reflects empirical observation that 95%+ of xSOL-SOL liquidity comes from managed positions. The proposal passed without apparent controversy, consistent with the pattern that futarchy markets show limited activity when proposals are uncontested.

Main contribution is empirical data on Kamino's market dominance (95%+ of xSOL-SOL liquidity) and the observation that users require managed positions for LP participation. Created decision_market entity for the proposal, enriched existing futarchy trading volume claim, and created new Kamino entity given its significance as infrastructure. No novel claims warranted - this is execution of known DeFi liquidity incentive patterns via futarchy governance."

extraction_notes: "Governance proposal demonstrating futarchy for treasury-funded growth initiatives. No novel claims extracted - primary value is entity data (new decision_market entity, Kamino entity creation, Sanctum timeline update) and enrichment of existing futarchy mechanism claims. The proposal exemplifies low-contestation futarchy decisions where economic logic is straightforward."
