XFai is delighted to announce the launch of the DLO Partnership Program. This program will leverage the unique value offering of the XFai DLO (DEX Liquidity Oracle) to invite small and medium cap tokens to the DeFi space, while offering the project and the token holders participation in one-sided liquidity provision while earning significant APY based on DEX transaction volumes. More than 50 projects have been identified as potential DLO partners since before the LGE, with more than 10 projects having joined the DLO partnership program. Individual partnership will be announced and highlighted in the coming days.

Making a Fairer DeFi Ecosystem

The current DeFi ecosystem is disproportionately geared in favor of the top 10 tokens. While this is great for holders of tokens such as BTC and ETH, it ignores the 250 billion USD market cap of other small and medium cap tokens with strong fundamentals and outstanding technology. Until now, holders of these tokens were forced to not only sell their tokens to realize profits, but also sell at a disadvantage due to the hidden market makers on the centralized exchange due to the lack of liquidity on DEX.

The XFai DLO onboards small and medium cap token projects and holders to partake in one-sided liquidity provision, which flows into the DEX liquidity book. The DLO charts the liquidity and the order book depth of CEX, and creates a synthetic curve. The collected liquidity generated by the token holders is balanced with a stablecoin pair by XFai which then flows into the DEX, creating an optimized trading ecosystem with minimum slippage. In return, the liquidity providers will be able to earn increased APY.

Supporting Long-Term Growth of Partners

Most small and medium cap token projects suffer from two paths that end up with the same result. The project either offers no incentive for the token holders to continue holding the token, or launches a staking contract designed to slow down the eventual sell pressure by paying the APY out of their own pockets. However, in the end, these tokens must be sold in the market for the traders to realize their profits. There is an eventual sell pressure, some of which the project has created itself by giving more and more of its tokens to the staking participants, and this sell pressure happens on very thin pools exasperating the downward spiral.

The XFai DLO challenges this idea and offers a revolutionary solution. Token holders are able to perform one-sided liquidity provision in a similar manner as staking. The APY is generated from Uniswap trading that would become popular due to low slippage, creating a higher APY than project-run staking while lifting the economic burden from the projects. The APY, dripped in the native token of the partnered project, can then be sold into the market for the token holder to realize profit, allowing profit realization without the need to sell the original principle.

Benefits for XFIT Holders

The DLO partnership benefits not only the partnered token and its community, but also the XFIT holders. The unique set of skills held by the team at XFai allows the DLO to be a revenue-generating model, not at the cost of the DLO partners or the partnered token holders. The zero-cost revenue generation allows XFai to use the profits from its tools such as the DLO to engage in a buy and make strategy for XFIT, resulting in a continuous, steady upward price pressure on XFIT and enhanced liquidity in its XFIT pools.
