TL;DR

• The FODL pool has recently been whitelisted .
• A suggestion from @glenn to increase the trading liquidity limit from 100k to 250k in the whitelisting thread was made.
• The FODL liquidity on other decentralised exchanges justifies proposing an increase.
• Increasing the pool’s liquidity will improve price impact and help direct more volume to Bancor.
• This proposal seeks to increase the trading liquidity limit in the pool from 100k BNT to 250k BNT.

Rationale

The FODL pools with deepest liquidity in Ethereum DEXes are:

The FODL/USDC 0.3% SushiSwap pool with $7,281,625.00 liquidity, and $205,978.89 daily volume [1].

The FODL/WETH 0.3% SushiSwap pool with $6,230,332.17 liquidity, and $177,020.27 daily volume [2].

The extra liquidity would bring the total pool liquidity to at least ~$1.35m, if the space in the pool is filled. If full, the Bancor FODL pool would only have 18.47% of the liquidity in the FODL/USDC Sushiswap pool. Therefore, if it happens, a proposal to increase the trading liquidity limit again should be considered.

FOR

Increase trading liquidity in the FODL pool from 100k BNT to 250k BNT.

AGAINST

Keep the trading liquidity in the FODL pool at 100k BNT.
