Hi, we agree with this proposal in general as it’s in-line with community discussions.

Please add to the upcoming Aug 20th, 2026 governance call agenda [Celo Governance Call #96 | Aug 20th, 2026](https://forum.celo.org/t/celo-governance-call-96-aug-20th-2026/13730) .

In answer to your open questions:

1. Is 25% an appropriate starting allocation? **Yes 25% is a great starting point to burn the “Net Distributed to the Community Fund”, as per [ongoing cello chain revenue transactions](https://forum.celo.org/t/initiating-ongoing-celo-chain-revenue-transactions/13494/6). The community can vote to increase or decrease this in the future.**

2. Should the percentage be fixed until governance changes it, or automatically reviewed at defined intervals? **We suggest it is automatically reviewed at 6-month intervals, and it remains at the most recent % (as ex. 25% in this case) until a new vote changes the %. If this can’t be automatically reviewed, then fixed until governance vote changes it.**

3. Should the mechanism eventually include revenue-backed staking alongside burning? **We suggest this is a separate topic, not to be included in the proposal to burn %.**

4. What is the safest technical implementation for recurring burns? **Please confirm this with Celo Core Co. and the Governance Working Group individuals (@0xj4an-work @Wade @0xGoldo @KateNora) since it seems the Bi-Weekly L2 Sequencer Revenue Distribution is a manual posting by @KishanP: kindly advise if the net distributed to the community fund is currently automated. And if you’d be willing to manually generate the burn transactions on a bi-weekly basis.**

5. What additional metrics should be included in the six-month review? **For now, manual vs. automatic burn processing.**
