Overview
DeFi on NEAR and Aurora have been growing exponentially over the last few months with a marked increase on the number of Lending Platforms, users, and Total Value Locked (TVL).
We’ve been working non-stop to ensure that stNEAR, a core building block of DeFi composability, is available in as many platforms as possible. We are thrilled to add Jumbo Exchange to the growing list of leading AMMs on NEAR and Aurora where stNEAR is currently being used to provide deep liquidity.
stNEAR lands on Jumbo
We are excited to bring stNEAR, the premium liquid staking token on the NEAR ecosystem, to Jumbo Exchange, the latest Automated Market Maker (AMM) to launch on NEAR native.
Jumbo received a grant from the NEAR Foundation late last year as they set out to create “the most UI/UX friendly AMM on NEAR”. After months of work and fine-tuning, Jumbo is finally launched on mainnet a few weeks ago and is kickstarting liquidity incentives on April 15th.
Additionally, Jumbo will also feature a stable pool for nUSDO, the synthetic USD issue by OIN Finance that uses stNEAR as collateral. This represents a major milestone as nUSDO had challenges with convertibility since it launched back in December 2021. These new incentivised pools with deep liquidity means that users can deposit stNEAR, issue nUSDO for a fixed 2% interest, and then swap it for USDC or USDT on Jumbo.
Benefits of Using stNEAR on a Liquidity Pool
The value proposition of using stNEAR over traditional wNEAR in Liquidity Pools is quite simple: increase the number of revenue streams for LPs to three:
The use of stNEAR, a yield bearing asset, will be particularly beneficial for low volume pools or pools that do not have any farming incentives.
$META Rewards
As part of our new strategy to distribute $META rewards through our partners, all users providing liquidity to the stNEAR pools will earn double rewards in both $JUMBO and $META! Meta Pooler, you can take advantage of this opportunity and be ready to participate in our future DAO!
