This proposal features three distinct components designed to increase volume and access to liquidity across the Algorand ecosystem.
- Integrating Stableswaps and Lending Markets into the Vestige Aggregator, as well as open-sourcing the routing smart contract
- Establishing a fully decentralized on-chain aggregator for new dApps to utilize the available liquidity on Algorand
- Developing a comprehensive lending platform that leverages existing liquidity for all actions, driving volume towards the entire ecosystem
We will integrate stableswaps into the Vestige aggregator, enabling tokens like gALGO to have greater utility by providing instant access to swap from gALGO to any other asset in the ecosystem with minimal slippage. This will be achieved by utilizing highly liquid stableswap pools. This milestone also covers integrating Folks Finance lending pools into the Vestige aggregator.
These integrations play a pivotal role in optimizing liquidity utilization for bridged and stable assets, leading to a significant reduction in price impact. A 10000 ALGO swap to goBTC through our router nets you over a percent more than doing a single swap, and these integrations will boost this number a lot. This grant will enable us to open-source the smart contract used for the routing, equipping other developers with the necessary tools to create their own complex swap transactions without reinventing the wheel concerning cfAMM swaps, stableswaps and lending market integrations.
This component is a fully on-chain, decentralized liquidity aggregator. This on-chain tool will be callable from other dApps, allowing developers to tap into on-chain liquidity programmatically without incurring significant price impact from single-pool swaps. Furthermore, an oracle-like component will be introduced to track on-chain liquidity over time, enabling smart slippage during transaction execution and preventing frontrunning or MEV-like attacks.
The third component is a fully decentralized lending platform, offering a variety of lending and borrowing options for specific on-chain assets. This protocol will exclusively tap into existing AMMs for managing loans, repayments, and liquidations by leveraging the decentralized liquidity aggregator mentioned earlier. This approach ensures that liquidation incentives and fees remain within the ecosystem, instead of being consumed by bots and moved off-chain, which is a current issue.

- Developing and implementing backend logic for calculating swaps through stableswap pools
- Developing and implementing backend logic for calculating swaps through lending markets Estimated completion by Q1 2024
- Constructing the logic for a decentralized oracle
- Developing and implementing a decentralized liquidity aggregator
- Full open sourcing of the decentralized liquidity aggregator Estimated completion by Q1 2024.
- Creating and deploying the core lending systems, which include liquidity provisions, rewards staking and core loan order logic
- Developing an open-source liquidation bot which will allow anyone to help secure the protocol
- Launching the protocol as a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) in beta testing status. Estimated completion by Q2 2024.
The development of a decentralized lending platform and the expansion of the Vestige.Fi analytics platform will deliver a multitude of advantages to the Algorand community. These advantages include:
- Expansion of DeFi offerings in the Algorand network, promoting creativity, innovation and progress
- Boosted on-chain transaction volume due to lending activities, which in turn results in improved network liquidity
- Refined asset price discovery through support for various lending and borrowing options which lead to increased market efficiency
- Augmented dependability and precision in asset pricing via a decentralized oracle integration
- Enriched analytics and DeFi tools, drawing more users to the Algorand ecosystem
- Launching the aggregator as a white label service, allowing other projects to utilize Vestige.Fi's analytical prowess, stimulating cooperation and innovation
