[RollApp Submission] Introducing Nebula Finance: The Liquid Staking RollApp

Abstract

Nebula Finance is a protocol designed to bring liquid staking to the Dymension ecosystem. As a native Dymension RollApp, Nebula Finance aims to enhance the utility and liquidity of staked DYM tokens by providing a seamless and flexible liquid staking solution.

The project will be deployed and operated as a RollApp, ensuring broad accessibility, flexibility, and integration within the Dymension ecosystem.

Nebula Finance Explained

Upon launch, Nebula Finance will focus on providing users with additional use cases and flexibility for their staked DYM tokens. This will unlock new opportunities within the Dymension DeFi ecosystem, allowing users to be flexible with nDYM and utilize their staked DYM with nDYM through future use cases such as:

  • Incentivized AMM Liquidity on Dymension Portal: Establishing nDYM/DYM liquidity pools to enhance trading options and liquidity.

  • Lending/Borrowing: Enabling users to lend and borrow against their nDYM tokens, providing additional financial flexibility.

  • Staking Derivatives: Developing staking derivatives to offer users more sophisticated financial instruments and options.

  • DeFi Ecosystem: Promoting nDYM as collateral or as liquidity across the DeFi money market space.

Phases of Development

Phase 1: Incentivized Testnet

Community members can join the Nebula Testnet now. Details are available in this tweet:[ x.com]

Phase 2: Mainnet Launch, NBL Token RollDrop & Points Season

Liquid Staking Process (Mainnet):

  1. Stake DYM Tokens: Users stake their DYM tokens through Nebula Finance.
  2. Receive nDYM Tokens: In return, users receive nDYM tokens that represent their staked DYM.
  3. Earn Rewards: The staked DYM tokens earn staking rewards, which are reflected in the nDYM tokens.
  4. Maintain Liquidity: Users can trade or use their nDYM tokens within the DeFi ecosystem.

Nebula Finance Token

NBL will be the native RollApp token of Nebula Finance. A specific percentage of the total supply will be distributed to nDYM holders and existing DYM stakers as a token of gratitude towards the community. There will also be a points system to incentivize community participation in NBL token distribution. More details on the NBL RollDrop will be announced.

Planned Future Use Cases for NBL Token:

  • RollApp revenue share
  • Paying gas fees
  • Governance participation
  • DeFi integrations
  • AMM utility through veTokenomics

Nebula Finance is committed to fostering a collaborative environment for growth and innovation within the Dymension ecosystem, driven by a decentralized and community-focused governance model.

Congrats on the RollApp submission. Looking forward to voting. Can you elaborate a bit more on specific use cases of NBL on Defi Integrations?

I would like to know the amounts that DYM stakers get.

Lately, projects give crumbs to those of us who provide liquidity to the network.

I have seen that it is better to do incentivized tesnet than to have my liquidity locked in dymension. The projects do not pay airdrops well to stakers.

Do we have any reviews or airdrop checkers?

I have been using Nebula testnet and i must say, the experience has been quite a pleasant one. Expecting same or even better experience once Nebula Finance goes live on the Mainnet.

Great to see new rollapp submissions, but most important those being backed by solid fundamentals. Congrats!
