6. Growth, Community & Ecosystem Impact
Why This Contract Matters:
- How will this contract benefit Berachain?
By incentivizing RAMEN-BERA liquidity, we aim to deepen TVL in the RAMEN-BERA pool, enabling prospective launchpad participants for the Ramen’s token launchpad to trade $RAMEN without significant slippage.
- Will it deepen liquidity for a major ecosystem token (e.g., BERA, core stable asset)?
Yes, BERA
- Does it enable important trading pairs that drive adoption or integrate with other Berachain projects?
Not in the short term
Potential Volume / TVL:
- Provide metrics or estimates on liquidity you expect to attract.
$3m+
- Highlight any known liquidity commitments. (If you or partners plan to seed the contract, provide proof of funds or a statement of intent.)
Pool is bootstrapped by the project team with more than $1M worth of liquidity.
Synergies with Other Protocols:
- Will this contract feed into any yield aggregators, lending markets, or liquid staking derivatives on Berachain?
Yes, Infrared.
Marketing / Promotion:
- Are there plans to co-market with another project to bootstrap liquidity?
Yes, Kodiak
Long-Term Vision:
- How could this reward vault evolve over time? (E.g., eventually becoming a core liquidity pair or a major stable pool for the chain.)
- Initially the reward vault will be used to bootstrap liquidity and incentivize early adopters
- By getting the reward vault whitelisted, we build a strong foundation for deep liquidity, making the trading pair more stable to retail participants
- Increased usage of the token launchpad will drive more token listings and trading activity, further solidifying the pair’s position and TVL, while deepening liquidity for BERA
- RAMEN will also integrate with lending markets in the near future
