# Liquidity Update.

In advance for our much anticipated Orkan launch and following the [gov proposal](https://gov.strudel.finance/t/strudel-improvement-proposal-the-orkan/68) that started this phase of the project we are going to restructure the way $TRDL incentives work. In the past we have arbitrarly set incentives supporting our growing product offerings. With the updates in the way liquidity is incentivized over the past year there have been several new mechanisms tested out which we are looking to implement.

With this in mind we're implementing the following changes effective after the gTRDL snapshot is taken Sunday Jan 16th 12:00 GMT:

-> All current farms excepting vBTC/ETH and $TRDL/ETH will be discontinued
-> The yield rate to the farms will be reduced to 20% for the free flowing farms
-> The treasury rate will be increased to 80% which will evenly distribute $TRDL in a periodic manner to the following:

-> gTRDL holders
-> ve(3,3) yield program on FTM [Once available]

## gTRDL gauges.

gTRDL holders will be able to vote on the yield allocation to all of these programs and include further farms to be incentivized in any platform we have access to. Our intention is that with the success of the ORK program the value of the Strudel Protocol can be appreciated on the market turning it into a sought after yield by other decentralized collectives.
