SaucerSwap V3 changes what
$SAUCE does inside the protocol. Structurally.
In V1 and V2, SAUCE incentivized liquidity through emissions. The protocol paid people to provide liquidity, and the token absorbed the cost.
V3 integrates SAUCE and
$xSAUCE directly into the fee structure of the order book.
xSAUCE holders get reduced taker fees, applied at execution. Hold more xSAUCE, pay less per trade.
Trading fees from V3 flow into SAUCE buybacks. More volume, more buybacks. V3 fees route through SAUCE via the buyback loop.
Single-sided staking stays core. Stake SAUCE, receive xSAUCE, get fee benefits across V3. No impermanent loss. No active management.
TL;DR
- In V1/V2, you held SAUCE because you believed in the project.
- In V3, you hold SAUCE because it makes you a better-positioned trader on the platform.
- This is a fundamentally different value proposition.
