Liquidity Hub, powered by Orbs’ L3 technology, offers a range of benefits, including lower fees, MEV protection, gasless transactions, increased capital efficiency, simplified UI, and more. This innovative integration, which merges both on-chain and off-chain sources of liquidity to a DEX, is the second of its kind for Liquidity Hub by Orbs. It is also one of the few in the DeFi space to do so.

Introducing Liquidity Hub: The Decentralized DeFi Protocol by Orbs Project

Orbs Project has developed a fully decentralized, permissionless, and composable DeFi protocol known as Liquidity Hub, which is powered by the Orbs Network. THENA’s traders can now access BNB Chain’s entire liquidity without incurring any additional costs.

Orbs: The Decentralized Protocol for Web 3.0, DeFi, NFTs, and GameFi

Orbs is a decentralized protocol that leverages a public network of permissionless validators using PoS and boasts tens of millions of dollars in TVL. The platform pioneers the concept of L3 infrastructure by utilizing the Orbs decentralized network to augment the capabilities of existing EVM smart contracts, paving the way for an array of novel applications in Web 3.0, DeFi, NFTs, and GameFi.

Understanding Liquidity Hub: A Brief Overview

Liquidity Hub is an innovative layer 3 (L3) infrastructure software that improves upon the automated market maker (AMM) model. By integrating external liquidity, this technology generates better price quotes and reduces price impact for its users.

Rather than relying solely on the DEX’s liquidity pools, Liquidity Hub improves the process by incorporating supplementary sources of liquidity.

1. On-chain solver auction: Third-party solvers who compete to fill swaps using on-chain liquidity like AMM pools or their private inventory.

2. Decentralized orders via API: Decentralized orders are accessible using API, enabling institutional/professional traders, such as market makers, to submit bids and compete to fill swaps.

How Liquidity Hub Operates

Liquidity Hub is a platform that enables DEXs to attempt trade execution without going through the AMM and facing price fluctuations. If Liquidity Hub fails to execute the trade at a more favorable price than the AMM, the transaction will return to the AMM contract and follow the standard execution.

Therefore, Liquidity Hub can only improve a trader’s experience. If Liquidity Hub isn’t competitive, meaning it would only execute at a worse price for the user or can’t execute at all, the swap will be routed through the AMM contract directly as usual.

Root is a governance aggregator that generates a revenue flywheel by bribing protocol owned liquidity on relevant DEXes. This revenue is used to build the treasury and fund a DeFi incubator to build a full service, omnichain DeFi ecosystem with self-perpetuating value accrual that is returned to Root ecosystem stakeholders.

THENA is one of the leading ve(3,3) DEXes and was designed to onboard the next generation of protocols to the BNB Chain by opening up a free market for THE emissions. Protocols can bribe veTHE holders or acquire veTHE to redirect emissions to their pools, offering a flexible and capital efficient solution to bootstrap and scale liquidity.

As such a partnership between the two protocols is a match made in heaven, supporting the further growth of THENA, whilst enabling Root to aggressively kickstart our omnichain vision from day one.

The THENA WARP Accelerator And Token Swap

Root is a transformative project that fundamentally rethinks the way DeFi works. At its core, Root operates as a governance aggregator, acquiring DEX tokens and bribing protocol owned liquidity (POL) pools to generate revenue.

This revenue generation creates a self-sustaining system known as a “revenue flywheel”. As the flywheel spins, it produces additional revenue, continuously funding the operations of Root, the value of the ecosystem tokens and NFTs, and importantly, their DeFi incubator.

To set the flywheel in motion Root is joining the THENA WARP accelerator, initially to launch Root liquidity on BNB Chain, as Root will be omnichain ready from day one! This entitles Root to an allocation of veTHE as well as a period of bribe matching from THENA to support extensive liquidity growth and revenue generation for both parties.

In addition, the two teams have agreed to a substantial ROOT and veTHE token swap. This will give Root a leading position within the THENA ecosystem, enabling us to generate deep, sticky liquidity, coupled with consistent revenue generation. It also gives THENA a stake in the Root ecosystem and ultimately enables them to benefit from their mutual success.

Building A BNB Chain DeFi Ecosystem

It doesn’t stop there. Their DeFi incubator is the crux of their ecosystem, where new and innovative DeFi projects are nurtured and launched. These projects form an interlinked, omnichain one-stop shop for DeFi, creating a seamless and user-friendly experience across multiple blockchains for any and all DeFi requirements.

The WARP accelerator will enable Root to quickly and efficiently launch the incubated stem projects that are planned for BNB Chain, starting with Ancillary, designed to act as the premier lending market on BNB Chain with a natural tie-in to drive greater TVL and utility for both Root and THENA.

Revenue Generating From Day One

One of the unique aspects of Root is its commitment to return the profits generated from the entire ecosystem back to its stakeholders. As a Root stakeholder, you not only get to participate in the governance of omnichain liquidity, but also share in the rewards of the revenue that’s generated.

In essence, Root is more than just a DeFi project; it’s a comprehensive ecosystem designed to streamline DeFi operations while ensuring that stakeholders directly benefit from its success.

The Official liveTHE Glossary

Whether you’ve been around for every Deck Talk and announcement or are brand new to our platform, you need to know and understand some important terms:

• $THE: ERC-20 tokens of THENA, the native liquidity layer on BNB Chain
• $veTHE: ERC-721 tokens containing locked $THE ranging from 2 weeks to 2 years
• $liveTHE: Wrapper created by LiquidDriver
• Epoch: A period lasting 7 days, restarting every Thursday at 00:00 GMT
• Rebase: A process on THENA where 30% of weekly emissions are allocated to $veTHE holders and directly added to their $veTHE positions
• $liveTHE_balance: The balance of $liveTHE in the THENA stable LP
• $THE_balance: The balance of $THE in the THENA stable LP
• $liveTHE_total: The total minted supply of $liveTHE

Minting liveTHE

THE → liveTHE — Users can swap THE to liveTHE at any time 1:1 for no additional costs other than fees associated with a normal swap.

veTHE → liveTHE — Users can convert their $veTHE (as an NFT) into liveTHE. Max supply to be minted is capped weekly and incurs a dynamic conversion fee influenced by the balance of the stable LP on THENA.

• Minimum conversion fee: 12.5%
• Maximum conversion fee: 70%
• Minting cap: 15% of the total supply at the beginning of epoch t
• Dynamic fee = $liveTHE_balance/ $THE_balance * min_conversion_fee
