Balancer v3 Upgrade Now Live, Bringing Enhanced Liquidity Optimization and Developer Incentives
Balancer, a decentralized exchange and automated portfolio management protocol, has officially launched its v3 upgrade. This latest update is designed to drive the next growth chapter of its decentralized finance ecosystem, with a key focus on liquidity optimization and incentivizing developers.
Key Features of Balancer v3
Balancer v3 introduces several key features, including 100% Boosted Pools, custom pool types, and the Hooks Framework. These features aim to provide a more efficient and streamlined experience for liquidity providers and developers.
100% Boosted Pools
Balancer v3’s 100% Boosted Pools offer a passive liquidity solution where underlying capital is allocated to external yield markets while maintaining liquidity for swaps. This means that liquidity providers can maximize their yield with just one click, participating in one of the most efficient markets in decentralized finance.
Aave, a leading DeFi protocol, will power v3’s initial Boosted Pools. This partnership is expected to bring unparalleled liquidity optimization to ecosystem users. Balancer and Aave aim to transform the broader DeFi market through Balancer’s automated market maker technology and Aave’s infrastructure.
βBy combining Aaveβs and Balancerβs strengths, the new Aave V3 Boosted Pools empower users with enhanced capital efficiency and simplified yield generation.β – Stani Kulechov, founder of Aave Labs
