Participants

There are several participants in the Plenny ecosystem, each of which play an essential role in its economic and monetary policies, including the following:

  • Lightning Nodes: : Verified nodes on the LN that log outbound capacity (i.e. sending payments limited to local balance) to Lightning Oracles.
  • Lightning Oracle Validator (LORCA): Lightning Nodes operating as oracles that validate the opening and closing of payment channels on the LN to reach consensus via the oracle network.
  • Liquidity Makers (LM): Lightning Nodes operating as liquidity makers via the capacity market and provide inbound capacity over the LN (i.e. receiving payments limited to remote balance) on a P2P and P2C basis.
  • Liquidity Takers (LT): Lightning nodes that consume inbound capacity on the LN via the capacity market.
  • Plenny Whalers (PW): Liquidity Providers (LPs) who use automated market maker (AMM) protocols on decentralized exchanges and engage in Liquidity Mining and staking liquidity token (LP-token) over the Dapp.
  • Plenny Governors (PG), Delegators (DEL) and Voters (V): Token holders who participate in DAO (decentralized autonomous organization) Governance.
  • Community Members: Any token holder, whether participating Lightning Node operators, early adopters actively contributing to Plenny at the technical level, any new token holder involved in the crypto ecosystem, including any Liquidity Providers in DeFi, and Ethereum-users who trigger the replenishment of the treasury or oracle election, are all considered members of the community, as token ownership comes with voting rights.
