Transition to Aggregated Liquidity
🟠Status: Vision
This page outlines a conceptual evolution in the liquidity strategy of the 0Fx Protocol, transitioning from a single-token base (wstETH) to an aggregated basket model. This shift is part of the long-term optimization of the 0Fx architecture.
Transition to Aggregated Liquidity
The 0Fx Protocol will transition from using wstETH (Wrapped stETH by Lido) as its foundational liquidity asset to adopting an aggregated basket of liquid staking, liquid restaking, and liquid lending tokens. This evolution will be operated through one of the protocol’s upcoming native applications and aims to maximize reward exposure, diversify protocol risk, and enhance capital efficiency across multiple chains and infrastructures.
Aggregated Basket Composition
The new liquidity base will consist of assets from:
Liquid staking protocols (e.g., wstETH, rETH)
Liquid restaking protocols (e.g., rsETH, ETHx)
Liquid lending tokens (e.g., aTokens, cTokens)
Each position in the basket will correspond to tokens originating from battle-tested Proof-of-Stake chains or lending infrastructures.
Strategic Objectives
Diversified Reward Exposure
Users gain exposure to multiple staking and lending yields across protocols and chains.
Risk Spread
Asset-level diversification helps reduce reliance on the performance of any single protocol.
Cross-Ecosystem Synergy
The basket allows the 0Fx Protocol to plug into multiple ecosystems, reinforcing its cross-chain and cross-yield composability.
Governance-Led Allocation
The proportions and selection of assets within the basket will be determined through the protocol’s user-led governance. This ensures:
Community oversight of risk levels
Strategic control over exposure
Dynamic optimization of rewards over time
Only protocols meeting strict security and reliability criteria will be eligible:
Industry-grade smart contract audits
Consistent TVL and usage metrics
Resilience during high-volatility cycles
Performance and Stability Benefits
The move toward a diversified basket provides key benefits:
Enhanced Returns By aggregating yields from multiple sources, the basket can consistently outperform single-asset exposure (e.g., pure wstETH).
Strategic Rationale
This transition marks a significant evolution in how value is captured and distributed within the 0Fx Protocol. By replacing single-source staking (wstETH) with an aggregated, user-governed liquidity base, 0Fx positions itself to:
Capture multi-chain, multi-protocol opportunities
Stabilize ecosystem income flows
Reinforce the long-term economic sustainability of the protocol
