Kinetic Group plans to buy up to 10% of FLUID under Fluid-AGI3 proposal

Governance proposal pairs Kinetic’s planned FLUID purchases with a 5% custody allocation locked through 2030, a 2% AGI3 equity grant to the Fluid Foundation, and 50/50 AGI3 Markets revenue and incentive sharing.

Fact Check
The primary source — the official Fluid governance forum proposal (gov.fluid.io) — confirms every specific element of the claim: Kinetic Group's planned acquisition of up to 10% of FLUID via open-market/OTC, a 5% FLUID custody allocation locked until at least 2030, a 2% AGI3 equity grant to the Fluid Foundation (also locked until 2030), and 50/50 AGI3 Markets revenue and growth-budget sharing. This is corroborated by Fluid's official X account (@0xfluid) and independent aggregators CoinNess and Odaily. The claim accurately paraphrases the primary proposal.
Summary

Fluid and AGI3 Group have published a governance proposal for a strategic partnership that includes Kinetic Group acquiring up to 10% of FLUID supply through open-market, secondary-market and over-the-counter purchases. The proposal also says the Fluid Foundation would allocate 5% of FLUID’s total supply to support regulated institutional custody adoption in Switzerland, the EU, Hong Kong and Singapore, with that allocation locked for at least four years through 2030. AGI3 would grant the Fluid Foundation 2% equity on the same four-year lock, and the two sides would split AGI3 Markets protocol revenue and incentive budget 50/50. The initiative targets institutional DeFi adoption among investors such as sovereign wealth funds, banks, family offices and asset managers. FLUID was trading at $1.16, up 9.5%, valuing a 10% stake at about $11.69 million, according to CoinMarketCap.
