The announcement was made on the official Twitter account of Bancor. Bancor is announcing a new roadmap to create more liquidity and community governance. According to the announcement, the new set of updates include a Liquidity pool airdrop for BNT holders, BNT upgrade, grants program, self-service token creation for content creators.

A blog post, having details for the new roadmap, reads:

Bancor is announcing a set of updates that collectively seek to create more liquidity, more developers building on the Bancor Protocol and more community governance.

To increase liquidity on the network, Bancor will airdrop BNT’s entire Ethereum reserve. The Ethereum reserves are expected to be 10 percent of BNT’s entire market cap at the time of airdrop.

To increase developers building on the Bancor Protocol, the company announced the creation of the Bancor Foundation Grants Program which aims at achieving further development and decentralization of the protocol. These grants will be used to fund a broader array of developers and startups building on the Bancor Protocol. The initial grants are given by the Bancor Foundation, while future grants will be voted on by BNT holders.

Bancor New Roadmap

The first two companies two receive grants from the Bancor Foundation are PEG Network which creates a stable token using any asset as its collateral and CoTrader.

This update also involves significant changes in the structure of BNT as blog post states:

We believe the best architecture for a self-sustaining, cross-blockchain, decentralized ecosystem is based on an inflationary token model. In this model, BNT holders vote to determine key attributes of the Bancor Protocol, such as the rate of inflation and most importantly, its recipients. Inflation could be a key mechanism for funding strategic liquidity pools, oracles and developers, as determined by the Bancor community.

This change to BNT involves the following three steps:

  1. Entire Ethereum reserves will be airdropped to BNT holders.
  2. Then the coin will have an upgrade to an inflationary token with an initial default setting of 0%.
  3. BNT holders will vote on the rate of inflation and its recipients.

LocalCoin, the core developer of Bancor Protocol, is also developing a self­-service token creation platform for digital content creators called Creator, the announcement states. The creator is a consumer app that is built on the top of the Bancor protocol and it uses Bancor’s token BNT.

Bancor is considered as the largest automated liquidity infrastructure in the world with over $2 billion of conversion volume. Core to this mission is to empower the community to take active leadership.
