Liquidity Incentives

How Liquidity Incentives Work

MemeLend uses liquidity incentives to drive participation and enhance platform liquidity. Users who lend or borrow eligible assets may receive additional token rewards via MemeLend, on top of standard interest rates. This mechanism supports a more dynamic and efficient DeFi environment on MemeCore.

Additional Incentives

• Users earn bonus tokens for engaging in targeted lending or borrowing markets.

Targeted Distribution

• Rewards can be directed to lenders, borrowers, or both, based on protocol objectives.

Time-Bound Programs

• Incentive campaigns are typically limited in duration, aimed at temporarily boosting liquidity in key areas.

Types of Incentives

Lending Incentives

Purpose

• Attract liquidity by rewarding users for supplying assets.

Mechanism

• Lenders earn bonus tokens proportional to deposit size and duration.

Borrowing Incentives

Purpose

• Promote borrowing activity for selected assets.

Mechanism

• Borrowers receive rewards based on borrowed amount and holding period.

Claiming Rewards

Accrual

• Base APY: 5% in USDC from standard lending returns.

• Incentive APY: Additional 2% in M tokens as a reward.

Total Earnings:

• 500 USDC/year from lending interest

• Equivalent of 200 USDC/year in M tokens from incentives
