**TL;DR**

- Vote is now live on Snapshot
- Tokens can go to one of 4 streams: Treasury, development fund, community, or burn.
- Snapshot vote will determine where tokens will be allocated.
- If quorum is not reached, tokens will be sent to the treasury.

**Token Allocation**

We have received great ideas from the community. Given the small amount of the excess tokens, it makes sense we allocate them to one of four possible streams:

1. Treasury: Send the tokens to Silo DAO. Token holders can vote to put the treasury’s holdings of $SILO and ETH to use at any time.

2. Development Fund: Allocate tokens to the development fund to fund activities that grow the protocol, including but not limited to:

- Grants program: Pay for measurable contributions that aim to grow the protocol’s users and liquidity - creating content, building tools, etc.
- Insurance: Buy cover for specific markets (Silos) in the early days of the launch.
- Bounty program: Launch a bounty program to strengthen the security of the protocol.
- Other activities that can be suggested by community members at any time.

1. Community: Possible streams include:

- Early users of the protocol such as ETH liquidity providers, borrowers etc.
- Auction participants

If voted, the community can discuss further how to allocate the tokens to community members.

1. Burn the tokens.

Developer fund seems like it would add the most value to me!

allocating tokens to the development fund it’s really good for the future and long-term silo, in addition, the initial support members are also very important, you should divide among the initial support members, should not pay together When you will pay monthly for 24 months, for example, it will help the silo have a long-term operating energy source, 50% for the development fund, 50% for the initial supporters
