This proposal is to increase the rewards multipliers for stable coin pairs (USDT & DAI).
AVAX-USDT increased from 1x to 3x AVAX-DAI increased from 1x to 3x PNG-USDT increased from 3x to 5x PNG-DAI increased from 3x to 5x
Why increase rewards of these pairs? Increasing the liquidity of stable-coins in Pangolin is necessary to the success of Pangolin, and also important to the health of the Avalanche DeFi ecosystem, specifically for lending platforms. Pangolin’s current ratio of stable-coins is only 3.1% of overall TVL, which is very low compared to other major DEX which have between 18%-26% stable-coins in TVL.
Benefits of more stable-coin liquidity:
Conclusion A higher level of stable-coin liquidity is required for Pangolin to see increased success a DEX, and is also required to support future lending partners. USDT and DAI pairs are generating tremendous volume and add significant utility, so we should increase rewards to attract and keep liquidity in Pangolin.
