What terminology should we use to describe Indigo?

Indigo’s tokenomics currently is broken down into 6 terms:

  1. Stability Pool
  2. iAsset LP
  3. $INDY Stakers
  4. DEX Staking / Airdrop
  5. Community Funds
  6. Team Distribution

DEX Staking / Airdrop has since been renamed to Initial Token Distribution (ITD). Team Distribution is to be shortened Team. Community Funds is to be renamed to DAO Treasury.

Up for discussion is what other terms on the tokenomics chart should be renamed and which terminology choices could we use for Indigo’s features/capabilities.

This is not an official vote. This is a discussion to get input from the community about which phrases make the most sense. Voting doesn’t mean you’ll receive a reward of any kind. The vote result also doesn’t obligate the Indigo team to use the terminology proposed. There could be new terminology proposed in the future that makes even more sense and be more suitable to use.
