Introducing Stablepools: supercharging stable asset trading on Polkadot!
What are Stablepools?
Stablepools are an AMM model specially crafted for pegged assets like DAI/ USDT/ USDC, and synthetic assets like WBTC/ iBTC. They were pioneered by Curve on Ethereum and are now on Polkadot via HydraDX. Their mission? To maximise efficiency of trades between these closely correlated assets
Trades on conventional AMMs (e.g. XYK) face higher levels of slippage & capital inefficiency because their algorithms aren't optimized for minimal fluctuation assets. HydraDX Stablepools fill this gap
What’s the secret sauce? The amplification coefficient. It fine-tunes the trading curve for correlated assets, balancing efficiency and stability, ensuring low slippage and high capital efficiency
Stablepools - as with Omnipool - allow liquidity providers to contribute using just one asset, significantly reducing complexity and focusing risk. Liquidity providers can choose to provide liquidity only to Stablepools - or they can seek additional fees by placing their LP shares into the Omnipool
Placing Stablepool shares into the Omnipool allows for trading between Stablepool and Omnipool assets, thereby offering deeper liquidity for the Omnipool and lower slippage - regardless of whether the assets are directly inside the Omnipool
HydraDX currently features a Stablepool of iBTC/ WBTC, a Stablepool of USDC/ DAI/ USDT/ USDT (native), and a Stablepool of native USDC/ USDT launching imminently
Together with the Omnipool, these Stablepools facilitate unparalleled depth in stablecoin liquidity - ensuring that traders benefit from the best possible price execution
