**Mechanism for distribution incentives:** Biweekly random snapshot position of the user + snapshot of the voting power utilised during the epoch, followed by a weekly airdrop of the incentives directly to the user’s wallet.

**Summary of incentives plan:**

- 95% of the incentives are distributed weekly among all market participants (the term “market participants” refers to depositors and borrowers in the Lodestar markets and does not include LODE liquidity providers or stakers). Each market participant is entitled to proportional ARB rewards based on the ETH value of their deposits and borrows relative to the ETH value of all deposits and borrows.
- 5% of the incentives are distributed among all emission gauge participants, proportionally to their voting participation.

**Summary of changes to the original plan:**

A proposal passed our on-chain governance to extend the distribution of the Arbitrum STIP Grant to the 31st March 2024 following the recent STIP Extension.  
Additionally, during previous distribution, an error occurred in our distribution system and some users were missed from the Snapshot. These users were compensated with ARB from the STIP grant, please find attached a post mortem from our Dev Team:

> # Post-mortem
> 
> The Lodestar grant distribution process we utilize, which is code that we run each Sunday after the Voting process in the Voting Gauge closes, and part of that distribution looks at the market participants (suppliers and borrowers) in the Lodestar protocol in order to distribute the owed ARB to participants proportionally based on their supplier and borrow balances at the time of each of two weekly, randomized snapshots. The data used for the distribution is pulled from our subgraph that we host. This subgraph contains information about health, suppliers, borrowers, amounts, liquidations and more. In the context of the market participants distribution process, we rely on the subgraph for information at two randomized blocks containing:
> 
> - Suppliers
> - Borrowers
> - Supplied amounts
> - Borrowed amounts
> 
> Prior to the STIP we had about 2000-2500 unique users that had used the protocol in one capacity or another. As the STIP started, it which coincided along with a Galxe campaign that was being run, had a profound impact on our unique user count. While this is a fantastic outcome and we have since seen the unique user count grow to 7142, we unfortunately experienced a limitation with how we were querying data from our subgraph as we crossed over the 6000 threshold. The distribution code used a query structure which involved first and skip parameters, which lets you essentially say: “query the first x records, and skip the first x results”, which we used to loop over the results in our subgraph and return all of the users. Unfortunately, as we passed over 6000 unique users we found out that the graph api has a limitation with skipped values and cannot skip more than 5000 records, due to performance reasons, which capped the return records at 6000. This meant that during our distribution cycle we inadvertently missed some addresses that were market participants and as a result they were not sent the ARB they were owed. After a few users raised the issue to us, we investigated further and diagnosed the issue along with compensating the missing participants accordingly with another airdrop.
> 
> # How will we ensure this doesn’t happen again?
> 
> We have implemented a few optimizations, logical checks and tests. This is a prospective set of solutions, and ones we are actively monitoring and testing:
> 
> 1. We have structured our query setup to look at the subgraph results in an ascending order, loop and pull all of the market participants, and then do the same thing but in descending order. While slightly inefficient performance wise, it captures the entirety of our user base and allows for a large amount of growth before hitting any other limitations. In the meantime, we are also actively working on testing and deploying a new, optimized subgraph with more filterable options to facilitate more optimized, performant and scalable queries.
> 2. We have implemented logical checks in the code itself during runtime to compare and ensure that the looped over data supply and borrow balances from market participants is within 1% to the overall computed totals that the subgraph outputs for all supply and borrow TVL.
> 3. We have implemented tests to compare weekly output results to previous weeks, checking the delta of ARB owed between users and investigating any swings or discrepancies (removed supply from the market versus the week prior, repaid part of their borrowed amount, added to their supply, etc).
> 4. We perform manual checks on multiple larger market participants to ensure there are no unexplainable discrepancies between their owed ARB and ensure it’s accurate relative to what they have supplied and borrowed in the markets.

- Following our weekly distribution plan as described in our STIP proposal: [[LODESTAR FINANCE] [FINAL] [STIP - Round 1] ](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/lodestar-finance-final-stip-round-1/16981)

**Summary of incentives:**

- 95% of the incentives are distributed weekly among all market participants (the term “market participants” refers to depositors and borrowers in the Lodestar markets and does not include LODE liquidity providers or stakers). Each market participant is entitled to proportional ARB rewards based on the ETH value of their deposits and borrows relative to the ETH value of all deposits and borrows.
- 5% of the incentives are distributed among all emission gauge participants, proportionally to their voting participation.

**STATS:**

**TVL:** $52.47 Million

**Plan for leftover ARB:**

- **158.78 ARB remain in the Lodestar STIP Multisig and will be sent back to the DAO’s treasury**

* * *

As this first STIP Grant season ends, the Lodestar DAO would like to thank all the Arbitrum DAO members and participants, users and partners for their support during this campaign.

We remain available at anytime to answer questions and we will be following the development of the STIP-bridge and LTIP program to keep the Arbitrum ecosystem ahead in the L2 race.
