Symbosis

The Pub.Finance team is excited to officially announce PUB.Finance’s Symbiosis upgrade.

SYMBOSIS: After reviewing the latest in tokenomic designs, tapping into the innovations pioneered by coins such as CORE and many others, and brainstorming with our VIP community channel (the Champagne Lounge), we are excited to publicly reveal the next phase in Pub.Finance’s evolution. The Symbosis upgrade will transition PUB from its current state as a high-inflation yield farming coin into an aggressively deflationary yield farming ecosystem.

“A symbiotic relationship is one in which organisms, people, or things exist together in a way that benefits them all.”

PUB’s new token design uses a combination of community-governed flexible yields, unstaking and transfer taxes/burns, and tiered rewards for LP token staking lockups. These elements work together in symbiosis to create a deflationary token with sustainable high yields that incentivizes steady growth in PUB’s liquidity pools, as overall coin supply is steadily reduced through transactional tax token burns. PUB being unstaked and/or sold leads to more PUB being both burned and distributed to LP stakers as yield, which results in PUB becoming scarcer while simultaneously pushing yields steadily higher.

Sells go up, burns go up, supply goes down, yields go up, buys go up, number go up.

This positive feedback loop will result in PUB’s available sell pressure being consistently burned away or locked up earning yields by liquidity providers.

With Symbiosis we aim to 1. Achieve a state of deflation, reducing sell side supply and increasing PUB’s scarcity. 2. Incentivize liquidity in our LPs by providing sustainably high yields. Below is an overview of how these steps will be attained:

Deflationary mechanics incentivize holding, reduce downside risk for Liquidity Providers (LP token holders), and increases scarcity

Instead of providing high yields at the cost of exponential inflation and crippling sell pressure, PUB’s yields will be a direct result of the deflationary mechanics & promote growth due a network of well-balanced incentives

Locked LP token staking rewards are on a sliding scale, where farmers are eligible to receive additional reward streams if they choose longer voluntary lockups. This removes sell pressure from the market and provides increased rewards to those who are providing the greatest value to the network and market. The highest tier of rewards (user fees from Pub.Finance’s flagship product, REDACTED, currently under development) will only be available to those who permanently lock their liquidity in LP tokens — a secondary market for those locked LP tokens will be provided, however.

Voluntary lockups provide access to higher reward tiers for LP token holders

When Launch?

Pub’s Symbiosis upgrade will go live on October 23rd. Leading up to the launch PUB 1.0 inflation will be halted, the current pools will be shutdown, a snapshot will be taken of holders’ token balances, PUB 2.0 will be distributed to holders’ wallets, and the updated pools with all their additional rewards will go live!

We will be publishing additional updates leading up to the launch. These will cover the swapping process, a detailed timeline, Pub’s governance portal, some internal burn and yield rate projections, and perhaps a sneak peak of Pub.Finance’s flagship product.
