**Proposal for Co-investment of 500k BNT on HEGIC pool**

# TL;DR

- Co-investment limit of 500,000 BNT

- It will open up space for LPs on the HEGIC side and potentially lead to an increase in the depth of the pool as LPs add liquidity

- A larger HEGIC pool will attract more trades from aggregators and professional market makers to Bancor which ultimately leads to more fees for our platform

- This proposal seeks to propose co-investment limit to 500k BNT in the HEGIC pool.

**Abstract**  
There is currently $8M of liquidity in the HEGIC/BNT pool. This proposal is seeking to add single-sided capacity in the HEGIC pool by proposing the co-investment limit to 500k BNT.

For: agree to co-investment limit to 500k BNT in the HEGIC pool

Against: do not agree to co-investment limit to 500k BNT in the HEGIC pool

_Bonding Curve_

The HEGIC token price increases as the supply of the token increases. When a new buyer has acquired the HEGIC token, each subsequent buyer will have to pay a slightly higher price for each token. As more people will discover Hegic protocol and buying continues, the value of each token gradually increases along the bonding curve.

_Liquidity Mining & Utilization Rewards_

The purpose of three Liquidity M&U Rewards phases is to let the users of the Hegic protocol to become its owners. Liquidity providers and options buyers vote with their wallets for the protocol. That is why they have to be able to influence its future and own a fraction of the protocol.
