For pools that qualify as a Balancer Core Pool, 37.5% of trading fees are redirected to veBAL and vlAURA voters.

Combining Core Pool status with protocol owned liquidity and a strategic vlAURA reserve turns liquidity from a cost to a revenue generator.

How does this work? ⬇️

The most common way to qualify as a Balancer Core Pool is for at least 50% of the pool to contain yield bearing assets or use an 80/20 pool for governance token liquidity.

Attaining Core Pool status initiates a cycle where 37.5% of trading fees are redirected to veBAL and vlAURA voters. This aligns incentives within Balancer where emissions can flow to where they’re most valuable.

For protocols that own some of their own liquidity, Core Pool status allows them to earn trading fees along with $AURA and $BAL emissions, without the need to incentivize pools themselves.

When you add a strategic vlAURA position on top, it supercharges the flywheel. Liquidity doesn’t have to be expensive!

We’re excited to welcome Kai Finance, the newest protocol building on top of Aura!

As a newer and unaudited protocol, we encourage everyone to DYOR and carefully assess the risks. Kai is designed to enhance rewards for $AURA voters through the introduction of $KAI and $kaiAURA tokens.

Users can deposit $AURA to receive $kaiAURA, which represents vlAURA in Kai. $kaiAURA can be staked to earn a boosted yield, currently offering an impressive 2x rate (117% APR). This amplified yield is possible because not all $kaiAURA is staked.

Keep in mind that converting $AURA to $kaiAURA is irreversible. While secondary markets exist, liquidity remains limited.

Additionally, users can stake Balancer Pool Tokens (BPTs) to earn rewards from:

✅ Trading fees
✅ $BAL incentives
✅ $AURA incentives
✅ $KAI incentives

Over $350k has been distributed to vlAURA voters in the latest bi-weekly epoch.

Through @HiddenHandFi and @Paladin_vote, vlAURA voters are paid to direct incentives in the @Balancer ecosystem.

With vlAURA now deployed on Base, Mainnet gas fees aren’t an issue.

In October, the auraBAL Compounder bought $240,954 worth of auraBAL.

Utilizing its dominant 67% share of veBAL voting power, Aura can provide boosted rewards to @Balancer LPs. Fees get converted to auraBAL and staked in the Compounder.

Currently, auraBAL yields 24.3% vAPY.

DeFi Renaissance (real) inevitably leads to DeFi Wars.

How long until everyone realizes their tokens are going to need a lot more liquidity over the coming years?

Forward thinking protocols like @aave, @GnosisDAO, @AlchemixFi, and @TheTNetwork have already been accumulating.
