Proposal: Postponing Jupuary by one year

Jupiter DAO $JUP
,
1

Hello team,

Jupuary has created division in our community: brought about negativity, hate, tension, PvP mindset, and “my stake my rights” attitudes.

FIRST PROPOSAL:

Postponing Jupuary to 2026, or even having two Jupuaries that year.

That’s the year we build hard, release any jup left to communities before (2027 event), no bull cycle to cloud our “greed”, etc…

The strongest communities are built in the depth of a bear cycle, not during bull cycles.

Surprisingly, most agreed.

The Against voters aren’t about getting/not getting Jupuary rewards - it’s about token dilution during the bull market and sell pressure. And while some argued “everything will PuMp!!”, the tokenomics tell a different story.

SECOND PROPOSAL:

Scrap Jupuary entirely. Introduce better incentives for loyal traders / loyal users / stakers::
-Fee reductions for months
-Invitation to join ASR with bonus
-LFG v2 voting priorities, etc…

Some communities have applied these incentives and experienced tremendous organic growth.

ENDS HERE

Before you comment on this proposal, please, if you are an undecided voter, or “Against” voter, pause for one second and ask yourself whether changing the date or changing the concept would make you more incline to voting YES, it did for me.

So for now, my vote for 25 November will be Against it.

Two jupuary in one year would be tough to pull off.

Unfortunately won’t be able to please everyone.

I like the draft proposal so far

There is only one month of January each year after all :smiley:

As with any vote, there will be nay sayers and yes sayers. In the end, not everyone will agree.

I think the idea of Jupuary each year is very positive and a good rally point for the whole Solana ecosystem and personally would not like to see it cancelled or postponed

It seems most people are apprehensive because of the amount of tokens (700m) being airdropped. It’s absurd to drop over 50% of circulating supply at once imo. I’m good with a Jupuary airdrop but it needs to be much less tokens. I’m a staker and think the asr are too high as it is. Jupiter is a great product and will sell itself but I’m very concerned about dilution at this point

Super tough… since there is only one January per year :sparkles::cat2:

I think you have to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. I may be way off here, but this is how I interpret what Meow and the team are trying to achieve:

  • The DAO is an experiment in getting a large group of individuals invested and working together in creating a whole new paradigm called the Global Unified Market (GUM)
  • I believe they have a timetable of two years from now (2027) to implement certain ideas
  • Phase 1 would be to grow the DAO significantly before then and I believe that is the main purpose of the Community controlled token allocation. Postponing or canceling Jupuary would hinder that progress considerably
  • Dilution, while painful in the short-term, will ultimately prove beneficial in the long-term when these ideas can be executed at the scale of a much larger Jupiverse
  • Part of that experiment, is getting meaningful buy-in from current DAO members, hence the 70% “yes” requirement for passage

Basically you just need to ask yourself, “Do I trust Meow and the team to do what is best in the long run?” Remember that they have a stake in this, too, and they have locked up their tokens for a couple years to prove their commitment.

They have a plan, even if they won’t share all the details right now. Trust in the plan or don’t. The way I see it, that is the only decision you have to make.

I didn’t buy this to hold it for many years. I don’t hold anything thru a bear market. I bought this as a 12-18 month investment. If this was there plan they should have just done the airdrops n not offered this coin to buy/sell on any market because it has no inherent value if they plan to dilute it so much off the bat. Fundamentally this project is great but the tokenomics do not make for a good investment. Understanding crypto cycles all rewards should be sold n bought back in 2-3 years for a lot cheaper. I bought this and Raydium at the same time n decided I should choose one dex n I chose wrong apparently

Sounds like you didn’t do your due diligence before buying then. If you had, you would know that the original plan was for 3 more Jupuary events at 1B each (3B total) through 2027 and this dilution event (as you wish to view it) wouldn’t be a surprise.

Also sounds like you don’t wish to be a part of the DAO so much as you are just looking for short-term profit. Absolutely nothing wrong with that - everybody loves profit - but now is the time to decide whether or not you want to be involved going forward.

Hilarious :joy:. The “Against voters” start complaining after they found out only staking won’t qualify them for Jupuary.
Give them 300M of Jupuary2 and the proposal will pass without a sweat.
Give them 300M of Jupuary2 and there will be no complaints about any token dilution.
Give them 300M of Jupuary2 and nobody will be asking for a vesting schedule.
Fact: The stakers had 9 months to raise the token dilution problem. Nobody complained about it because every staker was waiting for their Jupuary2 share. Have you seen any whale complaining about ASR rewards being to big? Have you seen any whale proposing the ASR rewards to be locked for 1 year?
Funny how under the topic “Should Jupuary airdrop be only for stakers” nobody is complaining about the token dilution.
I have bad news for you, my friend: It’s too late… the sell pressure is already on. You just don’t know that, yet.
“The most loyal users” are already unpacking :wink:
Just a personal opinion: The stakers worried about the Jup price after the Jupuary2, are the next dumpers.

Hi Vernon,

I am a staker and a user with a very high volume in swaps, DCA, etc… I do not want jupuary, I want one of these “against voters”.

I used to be part of this cabal of “give most jupuary to stakers”, since then I have grown out of this way of thinking.

9 months ago vs today is totally different. The community has grown, we are different from before, why do we need to adapt old ways of thinking and not improve the old ways based on what the community has become? Can you be more open minded?

Your comment does not resonate with me, I think we can all agree the majority of stakers do not wish for another jupuary.

The community decided to be divisive on a plan that had been made since first JUPUARY
But now the community fumed about it right ?
All of you are not ready for the reality, just some personal thought

JUP make the DAO to have decision in a plan that had been made before make it look like you people are empower with power they are not meant to have.

So the JUPUARY shouldn’t happen again next year but postponed till next year. This to me is inclined to your personal interest, that you got things to do regarding JUPUARY of 2026 and not project growth

BlueZenith,

It seems you want jupuary to go through. Since you guys are a minority, may I ask why? Aren’t you not afraid of 700m tokens dump on our heads? You think it will be absorbed quickly since it’s a bull run and the price will resume up only? You sell now and buy back when the token has cratered by 50%, you would have twice as much, basic maths.

I have another question for you, how about changing the concept of Jupuary entirely, would you be open to this?

14

Why don’t you guys talk against the plan in the first place after first JUPUARY that the other ones should not happen
Why the concern right now
JUPUARY is already in the roadmap. So they should not follow it.

Changing it to what ?
This topic and write up is vested with your personal interests
Since you make mention that it should be postponed till 2026. I know something is off from there.
You want to get prepared for 2026 JUPUARY right ?

Hi D3vpurity,

Because the community has grown! it’s a dynamic community, not a fixed mindset set of people here, isn’t this what a community is all about?

Changing the date because the strongest communities are built during bear markets and not bull cycles (where emotions run rampant). 2026 will be highly likely the end of this bull cycle. Look at Solana, it was at $8 during the bear market, the community grew tremendously, and look where it is now? Stronger than ever.

Are we deciding the time for bull here so that we can release the token then.
Or we are sticking to the plan to do JUPUARY

So because the community had grown, why do we need to wait till 2026, since the community had grown
What are we still waiting for ?

We don’t need to change the date.
The roadmap is there and must be followed
Imagine Jupiter exchange don’t bring in any features to its dex this year and said they are postponing it
What does that mean

I respect your opinion.

I like maths, and I will be back buying jup at a huge discount in 2026. You may decide to hold your jup if you think long term and the dilution or price depreciation will not affect you.

I just want the community to be tight during the bear market, not now, not one project will be releasing $1b worth of tokens in the coming weeks / months.

We were told we would have flying cars by 2023, we followed the road map, it didn’t happen, the date now is being postponed to now 2026.

It’s not because something is “engraved” that it HAS to happen. That’s called a rigid mindset.

Any price you bought it
Left to you
The JUP token meant for JUPUARY should go for JUPUARY at stipulated time.
A lot of things to do in the jupiverse apart from JUPUARY

Sorry my friend. You’re not fouling me. I’ve already explained to you, why.
How do you know what’s going to be in 2026 that you are proposing this postponement for Jupuary?
If the community is so different from 9 months ago, what makes you think the community will be ready for Jupuary in 2026? Makes no sense at all.

I’m not a whale but have a decent amount staked and I feel the asr is too much. I agree there should be a jupuary but def not 700m tokens. 300m sounds reasonable but less rewards all around going forward. If you care about the project you should care about the price as well. We need to focus on more utility and less dilution if you want this token to succeed
