Ghost Tokens and New Popular Pair Requirements
Aquarius proposes governance reforms to eliminate ghost tokens from its Reward Zone. Requirements include whitelisting anchor assets (XLM, USDC, USDT, and wrapped assets) that all token pairs must include, requiring token creators to register with Discord and verify identity, and banning anonymous TOML hosting services.
Aquarius has proposed significant governance changes to address the proliferation of ghost tokens in its Reward Zone. The proposal implements three core requirements: (1) anchor asset whitelisting, mandating that token trading pairs include at least one whitelisted asset such as XLM, USDC, USDT, or wrapped assets from Ultra Stellar and Apay; (2) Discord identity verification, requiring token creators to register with the Aquarius community and establish verifiable identity; and (3) TOML hosting bans, prohibiting the use of anonymous hosting services. Together, these measures aim to reduce manipulation, eliminate low-effort token creation, and ensure that token creators are accountable members of the ecosystem.
