**Proposal: Adding an FXN Gauge to sUSDaf/fxSAVE Pair**

**Introduction**

Asymmetry Finance proposes adding an FXN gauge to the sUSDaf/fxSAVE pair to direct incentives. This will boost liquidity, increase trading volume, and enhance rewards for LPs and voters in the FXN ecosystem, while promoting sUSDaf, the yield-bearing version of USDaf.

**Protocol Description**

Asymmetry Finance, an officially Licensed Liquity v2 fork, offers USDaf, a synthetic dollar borrowed against BTC or yield-bearing stablecoins (e.g., wBTC, cbBTC, tBTC, sUSDe, sfrxUSD, sDAI, sUSDe, sUSDS). USDaf is a friendly fork of Liquity v2 and the only immutable Ethereum mainnet deployment other than Liquity themselves. sUSDaf, built in partnership with Yearn is an ERC-4626 yield-bearing token, that accrues yield by staking USDaf in the stability pool in an optimized manner, generating yield from borrower interest and liquidation collateral. The two-token model balances staking and liquidity provision, with Yearn V3 auto-compounding for high yields. The sUSDaf/fxSAVE pair aims to deepen liquidity and attract DeFi users.

**Specifications**

- Governance: ASF token holders and Asymmetry DAO govern via veASF
- Oracles: Chainlink oracles are used for all collaterals in USDaf, with crvUSD EMA fallback oracles in the event that Chainlink prices go stale. sUSDaf has no external oracles
- Audits: USDaf and the Liquity v2 codebase has been audited 11 times.
- Centralization Risks: Fully decentralized, permissionless borrowing, and transparent minting, with no off-chain dependencies.
- Market History: USDaf launched successfully; sUSDaf debuted May 12, 2025, with Yearn. Peg-stable, sUSDaf yields 5-12%. Mainnet launched May 28, 2025.

**Proposal Details**

Adding an FXN gauge to sUSDaf/fxSAVE will:

- Increase Liquidity: Incentives deepen liquidity for easier trading.
- Boost Volume: More traders increase sUSDaf/fxSAVE activity.
- Enhance Rewards: Better returns for LPs and veFXN voters.
- Drive Adoption: Exposes sUSDaf to Protocol f(x) users, as well as exposing sUSDaf users to fxSAVE, mutually growing the reach of both protocols.

**Conclusion**

The sUSDaf/fxSAVE FXN gauge will enhance liquidity, volume, and rewards, benefiting both Asymmetry and Protocol f(x) ecosystems. We request veFXN voters to support this proposal.

Huge fan of the proposal. Gives yet another venue to put fxSAVE to work, as well as pairing with another yield-bearing stability pool with similar yield to minimize IL.

As a heavy user of both protocols, I’m a fan.

Makes a huge amount of sense.
