Summary:
We propose the creation of a V2 KBL/xKBL pool with a 0.15% fee tier on SaucerSwap, alongside the default listing of xKBL within the SaucerSwap platform. This initiative supports the recent rollout of xKBL (Kabila’s staked version of KBL) by improving trading depth, reducing slippage, and making the asset more accessible to users participating in KBL staking.
Abstract:
A V2 KBL/xKBL pool will enable users to swap between KBL and its staked counterpart with high capital efficiency and low slippage, leveraging concentrated liquidity mechanics. This setup is ideal for tightly pegged pairs and avoids the inefficiencies of a legacy V1 pool. In parallel, default listing of xKBL will ensure broader visibility and improved token discoverability and authority.
Motivation:
The creation of a V2 KBL/xKBL pool and the inclusion of xKBL in SaucerSwap’s token registry are key steps in supporting the adoption of staking mechanics within the Kabila ecosystem. These actions will:
- Facilitate deeper liquidity around KBL/xKBL pairs.
- Provide efficient infrastructure for users to enter or exit staking.
- Promote trust and visibility around xKBL.
- Align with the broader Hedera DeFi roadmap and unlock new strategies for liquidity providers and stakers alike.
Benefits (Pros):
- Improved Trading Experience: Low slippage and optimized routing for swaps between KBL and xKBL.
- Capital Efficiency: Concentrated liquidity ensures better use of treasury or community funds.
- Stable Market Peg: Helps maintain the expected 1:1 peg between KBL and xKBL.
- LP Incentives: Opportunity to earn fees with tighter liquidity bands and lower capital requirements.
- Visibility: Listing xKBL by default simplifies onboarding and trust on SaucerSwap.
Downside (Cons):
- Technical Overhead: Requires periodic monitoring or rebalancing if the peg drifts or activity spikes.
- Smart Contract Risk: As with any DeFi deployment, users are exposed to protocol-level risks.
- Education Required: New users may need guidance on xKBL staking, minting, and redeeming.
Voting Options:
- For: Approve the creation of a V2 KBL/xKBL pool with a 0.15% fee and list xKBL as a default token in the SaucerSwap interface.
- Against: Request further clarification, revision, or delay the implementation.
