Trader Joe’s notable decentralised exchange (DEX) business, Merchant Moe, has announced a strategic alliance with Mantle, a blossoming DAO-led web3 ecosystem, marking a major development in the decentralised finance (DeFi) scene. This partnership, which utilises the Mantle Liquid Staking Protocol (LSP) and the Ethereum layer 2 (L2) Mantle Network, represents a watershed point in the development of DeFi.
Innovating Trading with the Liquidity Book Protocol
Merchant Moe stands as a beacon of innovation in the DeFi space. Its Liquidity Book protocol, a first in the market, redefines the concept of concentrated liquidity market makers. This novel approach diverges from traditional Automated Market Makers (AMMs), offering a more nuanced and efficient method for capital deployment and fee generation, thereby refining the token trading experience and enhancing capital efficiency.
$MOE Token: A Gateway to New Yield Horizons
At the core of Merchant Moe’s ecosystem lies the $MOE token, a key to unlocking diverse yield-accumulating opportunities. Holders of $MOE are not only privy to real yield derived from protocol fees but also wield voting power. This empowers them to shape the platform’s liquidity landscape and earn additional yield through innovative gauge voting and a bribe system.
