Phase 1: Expansion Phase (Weeks 1-12)
During the protocol’s first 12 weeks, emissions increase by 2% each week to rapidly bootstrap liquidity and attract early adopters.
Weekly Progression:
| Week | Emission Rate | Emission Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 2% of initial supply | 2,000,000 DXLYN |
| Week 2 | +2% (2.04% total) | 2,040,000 DXLYN |
| Week 3 | +2% (2.0808% total) | 2,080,800 DXLYN |
| Week 4 | +2% (2.122416% total) | 2,122,416 DXLYN |
| … | … | … |
| Week 12 | Cumulative +2% weekly | ~2,536,000 DXLYN |
Purpose of Expansion:
- Attract initial liquidity providers with high rewards
- Build trading volume quickly
- Establish pool depth for better price stability
- Create network effects as more users join
Early Adopter Advantage: Users who provide liquidity in the first 12 weeks benefit from both increasing emissions and potentially less competition, leading to higher individual rewards.
