Welcome to another weekly wrap-up, Spartans! Thanks to all the community contributors and friends who helped Buidl, promote and support during the week! Read on for the update

SPARTA Whitelisted on KyberSwap

As breifly touched on last week, the SPARTA token is now whitelisted on KyberSwap, big thanks to the contributors who reached out to get the ball rolling with this and to the Kyber team for the swift action making it happen.

The SpartanProtocol AMM pools are already integrated indirectly through KyberSwaps aggregator with ongoing discussions between contributors and the Kyber team to also work on a direct, conscious integration of the AMM.

When swapping tokens, DeFi users should ALWAYS at least check the comparison rate with swap aggregators like KyberSwap rather than blindly using a single-source swap DApp like PCS, UniSwap or our own community DApp. Dont trust, verify!

New Pool Listings

This week we saw two new pools listed permissionlessly by the Spartan community. First to deploy was the XRP:SPARTA pool. This pool reached its 7 day maturity and subsequently the initial liquidity provider removed their liquidity. There is nothing wrong with this as such, but before paying the gas to deploy a new pool, pool creators should ensure they are adding enough liquidity to make the pool a viable route to meet some of the demand for the underlying token. No stress though, the XRP pool is now there, established and ready for liquidity providers to come along and make it a viable swap route in the future!

The 2nd new pool listed by the community this week was the BAT:SPARTA (Brave 'Basic Attention Token' token) pool. This pool had its initial liquidity caps (100K) hit straight away and raised to 200K to allow in more liquidity, still now holding the initial ~100K liquidity after reaching its initialization phase. The TVL is still a little low to be a viable route for swaps, but in a good position to gradually build in the coming weeks/months.

Liquidity Caps Increased

As mentioned above, the new BAT pool had its liquidity caps raised from 100K to 200K when they were met almost instantly upon the pool being created. Another pool that reached its caps this week was the FOUR pool, which had its caps raised from 200K -> 400K

  • removed the bypass after the subgraph updated

reduce unneeded historical entities

  • adjusted utils.ts `checkPoolMetricsDay` and `checkPoolMetricsHour` to have an additional arg as a basis to check 'how far back' from
  • `checkPoolMetricsDay` only needs 30 days of historical 'candles' to form its 30 day rolling figures, so we do not need to go all the way back to the AMM's genesis block for every pool (we just have to make sure we use ZERO for the 30day rolling figures if we hit that limit)
  • `checkPoolMetricsHour` only needs 24 hours of historical 'candles' to form its 24hr rolling figures, so we do not need to go all the way back to the AMM's genesis block for every pool (we just have to make sure we use ZERO for the 24hr rolling figures if we hit that limit)
  • These two changes have given us a 50% saving on overall entities generated by the subgraph up to the current block vs prior to the changes (~80K entities vs ~160k) and the savings will be exponential over time and with increased pools being listed

rolling figures fallback to zero when impartial

  • added a check to the rolling calculation (whenever we 'minus' the oldest 'candle' to get the new rolling figure) to fallback to zero when resulting in a negative figure
  • this update is a 'self-healing' bandaid but with inactive pools (not very important anyway), it will still result in rolling figures that are actually lower than reality, a github issue has been created to account for this
  • ie. as long as a pool has at least one swap every ~25 hours, this figure will stay perfectly accurate, for pools that do not, the figure will be lower than 'actual' during a self-healing period of double the window ( ~50hrs ) reaching accuracy again thereafter as long as there are swaps every 25 hours from there-on
  • The github issue mentioned will potentially increase the accuracy window from ~25hrs to ~100hrs which is more than sufficient considering that rolling figure is only really used for DEX data-aggregator listings intended for active pools that should never have a 100hr inactivity period

‌Ecosystem Project: SpartanSwap‌

SpartanSwap is just a placeholder for now, but it is a separate project with the intention of building an alternative frontend for users to interact with the Spartan Protocol pools. With a focus on swap functionality to start with and longer-term plans to iterate towards becoming a swap aggregator for BNBChain and potentially multi-chain after that

‌Ecosystem Project: SpartanArena‌

SpartanArena is another separate project with a focus on creating subprojects that lean more towards 'gaming'. Some ideas in the works for the future may include an NFT looter game, lottery and a prediction/parimutuel game

‌Ecosystem Project: SpartanToolkit

Spartan Toolkit is an ecosystem project spawned from the Spartan Protocol community aiming to improve tooling for projects and users within the BNBChain ecosystem including Beacon, Smart & BAS chains.

BepTools Fork

Temp GitHub Repo: https://github.com/Spartan-Toolkit/beptools

Legacy BepTools Repo: https://gitlab.com/canyacoin/binancechain/beptools (will request a PR and/or mirror to GitHub)

Temp Frontend: https://beptools.netlify.app/

SpartanToolkit contributors have forked and updated/fixed wallet connections etc on the BepTools DApp to give BinanceChain / BeaconChain / BEP2 users a way to freeze/unfreeze & batch send BEP2 tokens on BNB Beacon Chain

Web3BNB Library

GitHub Repo: https://github.com/Spartan-Toolkit/web3-bnb

A React library with the intention of providing builders with a plug-and-play solution for any web3 wallet compatible with BNB ecosystem chains (Beacon, Smart, BAS etc)

BNB Beacon Chain Toolkit DApp

GitHub Repo: https://github.com/Spartan-Toolkit/beacon-chain-tools-dapp

A tooling user interface for users + projects on BNB Beacon Chain. Batch-send, freeze/unfreeze, deploy BEP2 token etc without touching the command line!

BNB Smart Chain Toolkit DApp

GitHub Repo: https://github.com/Spartan-Toolkit/beacon-chain-tools-dapp

Tooling and informational user interface for users + projects on BNB Smart Chain‌
