I am very excited about where things are headed for Spectra. A few things I want to share, in no particular order:
- The value proposition of MetaVaults is working. We are seeing curators source liquidity and incentive packages for their MV deployments independent of Spectra's internal BD efforts. Any founder or BD person will understand how impactful it is to have an independent party capable of sourcing liquidity without a single call or text message.
- The second MV value proposition: liquidity rollovers, the biggest pain point of fixed-term markets. Smaller-scale rollovers have already executed with zero friction to liquidity providers. The model holds so far, and a significant pool expiry next month will be its first test at scale.
Both of these dynamics remain somewhat masked by market turbulence, but the early signs are evident.
- The team has been developing MetaVault V2, and recently completed an important audit with @Certora covering the key components ahead of the Order Book implementation and a strategic non-EVM deployment. The report is due any day now.
I'll say it plainly: MetaVaults V2 is the most capable and flexible vault framework on the market. Combined with the team's years of PT/YT infrastructure expertise, this puts MV V2 well ahead of any comparable offering.
I will be presenting MV V2 to curators and funds next week during my stay in NYC, centered around the Vault Summit event at NYSE headquarters.
- Spectra protocol activity is very vibrant, and Spectra is now the #1 yield trading venue for XRP Finance on EVM. Anyone can monitor and verify the ongoing activity at activity.spectra. finance (more data depth on the pool pages in the App).
While I'm here, I also want to reiterate that a tokenomic upgrade for the SPECTRA token remains planned. Since our Q1 update, the thinking has developed alongside the protocol's growth, and we'll bring the detail to the governance forum for discussion.
I appreciate everyone's support
@FigoETH yeah eth ecosystem has the throughput, the stables, the rwa share, and the defi tvl and somehow the dominant narrative is still that it's losing
