Enhanced Liquidity Farming
Orion Pools are evolving with a new liquidity farming mechanism designed to incentivize long-term participation and reward contributors more dynamically. This update, inspired by proven DeFi models, introduces a boosting system that maximizes the rewards for liquidity providers (LPs) based on their staked duration and veORN balance.
Understanding the Farming and Boosting of v2 Pools
As a liquidity provider, you can stake LP tokens in the farming process and receive rewards if the pool is allocated a portion of the overall rewards. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the new system:
Maximum Lock Duration: The maximum duration for a lock providing a 2x boost is set to 2 years.
Lock Duration Extension: Users can choose to extend the lock duration to increase their reward boost.
Additional LP Contributions: Adding more LP tokens is possible without changing the existing lock time.
Reward Accumulation: Users accumulate rewards every second based on their share of boosted LP in the pool relative to the total boosted LP of that pool.
The Boosting Formulas
The rewards system is governed by a formula that calculates boosted LP tokens:
The boost factor is determined by:
Where:
currentVeORN: Average user balance in veORN (from the time of staking to the current time).
totalVeORN: Average total veORN supply (from the time of staking to the current time).
totalReward: Total sum of rewards for all pools over all time.
currentPoolReward: Sum of rewards for the pool over all time.
totalLiquidity: Sum of all stakes in the pool.
currentLiquidity: Sum of the user’s stake in the pool.
The boost ranges from 1 (no boost) to 5 (maximum boost).
Transitioning to the New System
On December 4th, rewards under Governance 1.0 and the old farming system stopped.
A complete public announcement detailed the steps for restaking ORN for Governance 2.0 and LP tokens for the new liquidity farming, with an emphasis on pools containing ORN.
From December 5th, rewards in the new governance and liquidity staking began, focusing on enhancing the protocol’s growth and sustainability.
