dYdX Announces LP Vaults to Bolster Liquidity on Protocols Using dYdX Chain Software
dYdX has announced the upcoming launch of LP Vaults, which will enable anyone to provide automated liquidity strategies by depositing USDC into a vault. The pooled USDC will be used to automatically provision liquidity on both sides of the order book in a decentralized and non-custodial manner. The LP Vaults aim to provide liquidity at all times while being economically viable over the long term, with zero net exposure on each market. Depositors will receive any profits, losses, maker fee rebates, or trading rewards generated by the vault's trades. LP Vaults will be deployed in phases, with an experimental version supporting only deposits in Phase 1, and the ability for depositors to withdraw and front-end functionality added in Phase 2. dYdX Trading advises that any deposits into the experimental LP Vaults be limited in volume and to protocol community funds.
