Balancer Protocol Facilitates Massive Liquidity Flow
Balancer Protocol Facilitates Massive Liquidity Flow
💰 Billion-Dollar Liquidity Breakthrough
The Balancer Protocol's $ezETH | $ETH composable stable pool routed liquidity worth half a billion dollars in a single day on April 25, 2024. This substantial liquidity flow enabled liquidations that would have been impossible otherwise due to the constraints imposed by Curve's price bounds on liquidity allocation. The Balancer community continues to promote the protocol's capabilities, encouraging users to 'Build Better. Build On Balancer.'
Half a billion dollars. That's how much liquidity was routed through the $ezETH | $ETH composable stable pool in just a single day. Without this pool, liquidations would not have been possible due to CL price bounds allocating liquidity out of range. x.com/0xmikko_eth/st…
