Listings

With even more to come, we’ve had an incredible month in regards to listings on some of the biggest exchanges g, including:


 

Launch of Orion Pool V2

Orion Pool V2 launched on Tuesday, August 3rd. This move marked the next stage for Orion ahead of the integration of swaps, DEXs, and CEXs: expanding assets and volume on the terminal significantly. 

With this launch, Orion Terminal became the only trading platform to enable decentralized access to centralized and decentralized liquidity sources in one place. Users can seamlessly trade across Orion Pool, CEXs, and DEXs directly from their wallet (without KYC and regardless of jurisdiction), and the order will always be routed to the liquidity source with the best price.

 


 

Spotlighted projects

We’ve seen incredible success with our ‘Spotlight’ projects on Orion Pool - from million to billion dollar market cap projects, each with farming (both ORN and native) enabled:

  • FTMday: FTM/USDT (207% APR)
  • HOTday: HOT/USDT (10% APR)
  • INJday: INJ/USDT (38% APR)
  • COTIday: COTI/BNB (31% APR) GOVI/ETH (25% APR)
  • DAOday: FEAR/USDT (327% APR), XCAD/USDT (312% APR), LSS/USDT (182% APR)

Demand for spotlighting continues, with an exciting roster of projects to come!

 


 

50 new pools

#CommunityDay allowed community members to create a pool for any asset, with 42 community pools created in 24 hours. Any token listed on Orion Pool paired with USDT results in a listing on Orion Terminal - driving visibility and accessibility for the community’s favorite assets.

The community pools with the highest liquidity unlocked farming on top of the 0.3% pool fees:
BUSD/USDT (21% APR)
COTI/ORN (19% APR)
EFX/USDT (18% APR)

Ahead of opening up Orion Pool shortly for any individual or project to ‘self-list’, who’s ready for another #CommunityDay?

 


 

31 new assets

Across spotlighting and community day, 31 new assets were added to Orion Terminal or Orion Swap, including: IOTX, EGLD, AVA, HOT, INJ, GOVI, DAO, XCAD, FEAR, LSS, MIST, BRIDGE, DLTA, LANC, CAKE, HOTCROSS, and more.
