Jay Cudmore from Aquarius discusses the project's migration to Soroban, including new AMM features with variable fees, stable swap pools, and a shift from hourly rewards to on-demand claims. Aquarius is also exploring a potential third airdrop in partnership with the community.
In this Stellar Global community call, Jay Cudmore from Aquarius details the project's expansion onto Soroban smart contracts. Key developments include launching custom AMMs with flexible fee structures (0.1%, 0.3%, 1% for constant product pools), introducing stable swap pools for stablecoin trading, and transitioning from hourly reward distributions to accumulated claims within smart contracts. The team is undergoing security audits via the SDF program and targeting Phase 2 launch. Aquarius will maintain classic-side rewards while migrating AMM incentives to Soroban. Jay also announces plans for a potential third community-governed airdrop and discusses revenue models including swap fees and on/off-ramp partnerships. The interface will consolidate voting, swaps, and liquidity management on aqua.network.
