Season 5

This page has all the details about Season 5

Season 5: Mode Trading Agents and Streamers

TLDR:

  • OP incentives will continue in Season 5 for veMODE holders to direct to ecosystem apps, however Streamers and Agents will now be eligible for guages

  • Stake Mode to earn OP at approx 20-30% APY

  • Voting power carries over from Season 4 to Season 5

  • Agents, Streamers and apps can redistribute OP to their users

  • Insights must be provided into the distribution of incentives to remain gauge-eligible

Growing Mode and the Superchain: OP rewards aim to fuel tangible growth for Mode and the Superchain

Key Dates

Start May 8th: Epoch 1 voting begins, Streamers and Agents can apply to be added to guages on a rolling basis.

Two-Week Epochs: Voting and incentive distribution follow a bi-weekly cadence throughout Season 5

Key Benefits

1. Introducing Streamers and Agents to veMODE

Streamers who live stream or record videos on Mode Trade, Mode AI Terminal and Mode Apps will be eligible to apply for guages and receive OP incentives.

Agents that deploy to Mode will also be eligible to receive ongoing incentives.

2. Focus on Education Content for Growth

This move to bring in Streamers and Agents will help align the ecosystem around educational content designed to onboard users to Mode’s ecosystem of innovative AI powered applications.

3. AI Driven Onchain Experiences

Mode is building at the cutting edge of AI and all new initiatives will focus on enhancing AI driven onchain experiences.

Introduction

Mode’s governance experiment is about to become a lot more fun and engaging, with the introduction of Streamers and Agents. Building on Season 4 which saw experiments in bribe markets, Season 5 will focus on incentivising education and engagement with AI apps and agents building across the ecosystem.

What's new in Season 5?

1. Streamers and Agents added to veMODE

Protocols can now rely on Hidden Hand’s established bribe infrastructure, removing confusion around eligibility or claim processes. This translates to frictionless user experiences.

2. Transparency

All eligible participants for guages must provide transparency in how they distribute OP incentives in order to remain gauge-eligible, helping the community stay informed and confident about the deployment of rewards.

3. Tokenomics and Sustainability

Season 5 will use OP as the primary incentive mechanism. Apps, Agents and Streamers that secure votes get a slice of OP each epoch. This model not only rewards active participants but also ensures the broader Mode ecosystem remains vibrant.

4. Agentic Staking and Voting

Thanks to Mode’s AI Terminal, MODE holders can now use AI to stake their Mode to veMODE.

As the AI Terminal comes out of Beta expect to see the barriers for entry to be reduced significantly for all users.
