Aquarius is a liquidity management layer for Stellar that incentivizes market making and liquidity provision to reduce slippage and improve exchange rates. The platform uses the Aqua token for governance voting, rewards distribution, and ecosystem participation. Key features include hourly rewards for liquidity providers (2 million Aqua daily for SDX markets, 5 million for AMM providers), immutable voting via claimable balances, and the ICE token for enhanced voting power. Since launching in May 2021, Aquarius has achieved 156,000 active trust lines and 107 million payments. The platform is integrated with Lobster, StellarTerm, StellarX, and Expo. Future roadmap includes dynamic reward rebalancing, expanded ICE benefits, and Soroban smart contract deployment for full decentralization.
