According to @dydxfoundation, the dYdX community is reviewing a Staking-Based Fee Discount Program proposed by Nethermind that explores granting trading fee discounts to users who stake DYDX, with the stated goal of strengthening token utility and aligning holders with active traders, source: dYdX Foundation on X and dYdX Forum. According to @dydxfoundation, community feedback is requested on the forum, indicating the initiative is in review rather than implementation, which is material for traders tracking potential changes to fee schedules and any DYDX staking requirements tied to discounts, source: dYdX Foundation on X and dYdX Forum. According to @dydxfoundation, the announcement does not specify activation timelines, discount tiers, or staking mechanics, so traders should monitor the forum thread for concrete parameters that could impact effective trading costs and DYDX token utility if adopted, source: dYdX Foundation on X and dYdX Forum.
