Stellaswap <> Interlay Governance Proposal
Abstract
This is a proposal for INTR tokens to be used as incentives on StellaSwap’s INTR-DOT pool, in conjunction with the 1 million DOT incentive that Stellaswap was recently awarded via Polkadot Governance. If accepted, this incentive program would run for three months, with the possibility of renewal if the Interlay community would like.

Background on Stellaswap
Stellaswap is the leading dex on Moonbeam, capturing the majority of on-chain volume. We have a Uniswap v3-style concentrated liquidity dex (running on the Algebra engine) which constitutes a unique offering on Polkadot. Our capital efficiency is many times higher than a standard dex, allowing much larger trades to be made on the same TVL without compromising on slippage. We generally have a utilization rate 20-100% on most of our pools, while a standard dex is going to be more like 5%.
Our dex calculates swap fees automatically - no need for LPs to guess what fee tier to use. And we've got an integration with Gamma to provide automated liquidity management on many of our top pools, which if this passes could include INTR.
Note that as of this writing Gamma support is only available for one pool, but will be integrated in all of our largest pools by the time we receive our DOT incentives, in about two weeks.
The Advantages of INTR on Stellaswap
Simply put, Moonbeam is where most of the users in the Polkadot ecosystem are. It's often where they arrive first from the EVM world, and Stellaswap is the biggest dex on Moonbeam. A healthy INTR pool on Stella will get the Interlay brand in front of more users, and will hopefully lead to conversions among new Polkadot users.
With Stellaswap on track to receive significant DOT incentives there will be more attention than usual, and this is a great opportunity to push for a higher profile for Interlay.
Something we've done in the past, if you look at our pools page specifically at iBTC and CFG, we put links to those project pages right on the pool. For users new to the Polkadot space, who are learning about parachains for the first time looking at our list of incentivized pools, we want folks clicking that link and getting excited as they learn more. And we would do this for the INTR-DOT pool as well.
Incentives and Projections
Note - Stella and DOT incentive numbers are from the Polkadot Governance Proposal linked in the Abstract, and reflect a 12 month period. The INTR numbers are for a 3 month term, that could be renewed.
Note also that the projected TVL in the Polkadot proposal did not account for any INTR rewards.
Finally, the suggested token quantity has been suggested by Stellaswap. Based on community feedback to this proposal the number or the duration could always be adjusted.
iBTC-DOT
Target TVL (again, based on DOT + Stella incentives only) - $1,000,000
Note that this level of TVL would allow for significantly less slippage than an equivalent TVL on a non-concentrated dex.
