Alpaca Finance

Background:

1.) ITAM was the first Grazing Range partnership which ran in April - May of 2021. These ITAM rewards were provided as extra rewards to ITAM-BNB farmers and BNB lenders. The distribution was completely different than our later Grazing Ranges. It’s not the case that users were staking explicitly to receive these rewards.

3.) Currently there are ~917k unclaimed ITAM (~USD 500k)

4.) ITAM was recently acquired and any tokens not swapped by March 31st 2022 will lose all of its utility

See excerpt below:

ITAM-to-ITAMCUBE token swap portal will close in [11:59PM UST] March 31, 2022.

“With this said, the token swap portal will close at the end of next month. If you have not yet swapped your ITAM token to ITAM CUBE token, we strongly ask you to do so as quickly as possible. For any ITAM token that has not been swapped afterwards will lose all its utility. We sincerely hope we can make it clear that Netmarble F&C will NOT support ITAM token and will NOT use ITAM token in any of its services and initiatives. Only ITAM CUBE.”

Implementation:

After discussions and feedback from the community, we will provide 2 voting choices:

Option1:) Convert 100% of ITAM to ITAMCUBE. Sell ITAMCUBE on MEXC to USDT. Swap USDT to ALPACA on BNB Chain. Allow for additional 12 months for claiming. Any unclaimed ALPACA will be burned. Due to number of character constraints on Snapshot, this option will be labeled as “Sell ITAMCUBE to ALPACA”

(there is now enough liquidity on MEXC to convert all ITAMCUBE amount w/ < 5% slippage which is better than trading ITAM directly on PCS.)

Option2:) Convert 100% of ITAM into ITAMCUBE. Allow for additional 12 months for claiming. Any unclaimed ITAMCUBE after 12 months will be swapped into ALPACA and burned. Due to number of character constraints on Snapshot, this option will be labeled as “Keep ITAMCUBE”
