The team is developing a dedicated buyback and tracking system to determine the optimal proportion of protocol revenue used for buybacks. During this period, the DAO will take a transitional approach, using 100% of Ethereum Mainnet revenue for buybacks in the first month (approximately $1.7 million at current levels). The buyback officially started in the first week of October.
