<a href="https://www.velar.co" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Velar</a>, the leading&nbsp;Bitcoin-based liquidity protocol&nbsp;that brings trillions&nbsp;of dollars in dormant capital&nbsp;to DeFi markets, has partnered with <a href="https://www.stackingdao.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">StackingDAO</a> to provide the first-ever dedicated stableswap trading pair for STX/stSTX tokens on Stacks.
By using a unique stableswap curve to facilitate quick, low-slippage swaps for STX tokens and their staked equivalent, stSTX, with negligible fees, the STX/stSTX stableswap trading pair on Velar DEX will address a crucial liquidity demand for the Stacks ecosystem with its alluring rewards.
Because there would be less friction for investors to join and leave their STX staking holdings, stacking should become more attractive. Holders of STX and stSTX will also be able to benefit from attractive yield prospects. A dual rewards structure&nbsp;that offers a 50% increase in StackingDAO points in addition to 5,000 VELAR in daily rewards&nbsp;is used to attract liquidity providers. LPs may be eligible for rewards, airdrops, and other perks in the future by accumulating StackingDAO points.
The STX/stSTX stableswap trading pair will provide Stackers a way to earn more StackingDAO points while also offering supplementary functionality to seasoned DeFi users in the Stacks ecosystem. Additionally, it will provide enough liquidity for institutional investors that need the capacity to execute effective, large-scale STX/stSTX swaps thanks to its substantial incentives.
Additionally, two of Stacks’ top projects will work together more synergistically to benefit the Stacks ecosystem as a whole. Velar has become the largest DEX on Stacks, and StackingDAO has a unique position as its leading&nbsp;Liquid Stacking protocol, enabling liquidity for Stacked STX and making STX staking available to everybody. Furthermore, competing market pools put liquidity providers at greater risk of temporary losses, but Velar’s upgradeable variable midpoint solution will lessen this risk for StackingDAO customers, resulting in a more lucrative farming program.
Philip de Smedt, Co-founder of StackingDAO, commented:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
 “The introduction of the stSTX/STX stableswap on Velar DEX is a significant step forward for the Stacks ecosystem. This partnership brings unmatched liquidity efficiency, ultra-low slippage, and a first of its kind variable midpoint implementation on Stacks to limit impermanent loss.”
</blockquote>
Velar’s CMO, Peter Watson, added:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
 “At Velar, we’re constantly driving innovation, and partnering with StackingDAO to build the first-of-its-kind stableswap pool with an upgradeable variable midpoint is a proud moment for us. This feature, designed to better protect liquidity providers, showcases the cutting-edge solutions we’re bringing to the Stacks ecosystem. Collaborating with the talented StackingDAO team has been an incredible experience, and together, we’re setting a new benchmark for what’s possible in Bitcoin DeFi.”
</blockquote>
Velar’s goal of unlocking around $2 trillion in capital&nbsp;that is now dormant&nbsp;inside the Bitcoin ecosystem will be expedited by the enhanced synergies. At the vanguard of Bitcoin’s development, the protocol gives Stacks and other L2s the infrastructure and liquidity they need to enable a new wave of DeFi apps that are native to Bitcoin.
By creating a range of effective tools and technologies for DeFi, Velar is working to realize the full potential of Bitcoin. Velar’s AMM, Dharma, encourages trading on Stacks, the leading&nbsp;Bitcoin L2, and the supply of liquidity. With a strong transaction finality and unparalleled security, Velar fully fulfills the potential of Bitcoin-based assets.
