Introducing Zest Protocol Stacks Swap, The ultimate swap experience... for the stacks.btc ecosystem. Live now. Stacks swap is built with more routes, faster backend and UX than any DEx product previously built on Stacks. Stacks Swap compares hundreds of liquidity pools across every major DEX on Stacks and returns the route with the best output for every trade. How it works: 🟠 Smart order routing. Large swaps split across multiple pools and multiple DEXes at once. When no direct pool exists, the router chains hops through intermediate tokens. The full route executes as a single transaction. 🟠 All or nothing. Every swap is one atomic Stacks transaction. Either the full route completes and you receive at least the guaranteed minimum, or the entire transaction reverts and no tokens leave your wallet. 🟠 Price protection enforced on-chain. Every swap carries a minimum-received amount written into the transaction itself. If the market moves before confirmation, the swap reverts instead of filling at a worse price. No app, server, or operator can override this check. 🟠 Non-custodial by design. Tokens move from your wallet, through the pools, and back to your wallet within a single transaction. No deposits, no balances, no accounts. 🟠 Zero additional fees. Pool fees are set by the DEXes and already priced into every quote. Zest Protocol charges nothing on top. 🟠 Supported liquidity sources: Bitflow , Velar, ALEX 🟧 No. 1 Bitcoin DeFi, and Arkadiko Protocol 🟧🗿, plus direct protocol conversion through Stacking DAO for stSTXbtc swaps. The quote you approve is the worst case you can receive. The swap fills at that amount or better, or it does not happen at all. We built Stacks Swap using Zest Protocol's existing internal infrastructure. When we realised that it performed much better than existing DEx products, we decided it made sense to release it for the benefit of the ecosystem. Happy swapping.show more

Introducing Zest Protocol Stacks Vaults, Automated yield strategies for... Bitcoin-native finance. Launching alongside the stacks.btc Bitcoin Staking upgrade. Stacks Vaults mark the evolution of Zest Protocol from a lending market into yield infrastructure. Until now, earning optimised yield on Stacks meant actively managing positions across markets, moving collateral, monitoring rates, and rebalancing by hand. Stacks Vaults changes that: deposit a single asset, select a strategy, and the vault handles the mechanics in the background. This is the yield toolkit for Stacks. Every yield source in the ecosystem becomes a strategy that can be automated and offered as a single-deposit product. The first vault is a levered Bitcoin Staking vault, built around the liquid staking Bitcoin token Stacking DAO launches with the Stacks Bitcoin Staking upgrade. How the levered Bitcoin Staking vault works: 🟠 One deposit, one position. Deposit BTC, sBTC, or stBTC directly into the vault. You hold a single position while the strategy runs itself. 🟠 Automated leverage. The vault uses your stBTC as collateral to borrow sBTC, stakes the borrowed sBTC into stBTC, and repeats the process. Target yield: 6 to 8%, purely derived from Bitcoin Staking on Stacks. 🟠 Non-custodial. The vault contract can only execute strategy actions on Zest Protocol's lending markets. It cannot move funds anywhere else, and only the user can withdraw their position. No one, including Zest Protocol, can access vault assets. 🟠 Built on live lending markets. The vault runs on Zest Protocol's existing markets: two years in production, over a thousand liquidations processed without bad debt. 🟠 Continuous monitoring. Zest Protocol manages the strategy and monitors the position automatically. No manual rebalancing, no juggling markets. 🟠 First of many strategies. The stBTC looping vault is the first, not the last. STX-based strategies, stablecoin and credit-based strategies, and structured yield products can all be built on the same foundation. External curators will be able to manage their own strategies on Stacks Vaults. Lending markets were the foundation. Vaults are what gets built on top. Stacks Vaults launch alongside stBTC, right before Stacks Bitcoin Staking goes live. Note: Stacks Vaults are separate from Bitcoin Collateral Vaults, Zest Protocol's upcoming flagship product that allows users to borrow against native BTC on any chain (e.g. Ethereum). More updates on Bitcoin Collateral Vaults follow shortly. Follow Zest Protocol on X or subscribe to our newsletter to be notified when levered Bitcoin Staking goes live.show more

I took this lesson a few days ago,one of... the clearest breakdowns of how Jupiter Swap works. Let me walk you through it. So first,what even IS a Swap? Think of it like Spot Trading in traditional finance. You’re just trading one currency for another at the current market rate, except here it’s digital assets. USDC for SOL. Instant. On-chain. Simple enough. But here’s where it gets interesting…... The moment you go to swap, Jupiter doesn’t just grab the first price it sees,it aggregates liquidity from major sources. That's where Ultra V3 kicks in — think of it like an institutional trading desk firing up behind the scenes. It scans the ENTIRE market, aggregates liquidity from every major source, and routes your trade through the most efficient path possible. You’re not just getting A price for your trade. You’re getting THE best price. But it doesn’t stop there….. 🎯 Real-Time Slippage Estimation (RTSE) is running simultaneously — monitoring slippage live so your swap tolerance stays as tight as possible. No surprises. No overpaying. And on qualifying pairs? Jupiter covers the gas entirely. You just swap. That’s the Gasless feature, look for the icon when you’re executing. 📚 Two concepts you need to understand 💧 Liquidity —> How deep the market is. Deep liquidity means you can make large trades without moving the price against yourself. Jupiter taps the deepest pools on the network. 📉 Slippage —> The gap between what you were quoted and what you actually get. Volatile markets cause this. Ultra V3’s RTSE exists specifically to close that gap. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚀 Ready to swap? Here’s all you do ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1️⃣ Open the Trade tab → pick your Sell & Buy assets 2️⃣ Check the Execution Path — Jupiter shows you exactly how it’s routing your trade 3️⃣ Spot the Gasless icon if it applies 4️⃣ Hit Swap. Done. On-chain in seconds. And this is why the saying exists — If you want to swap smarter, Just Use Jupiter.show more

We've made some big changes to Pools based on... community feedback: > Fee split is now 90% to deployers, 10% to protocol on every new pool. > Half the protocol share goes to buying and burning base:0x22af33fe49fd1fa80c7149773dde5890d3c76f3b. No new token. > $120,000 of base:0x22af33fe49fd1fa80c7149773dde5890d3c76f3b is being bought to airdrop to the Pools leaderboard. > Fees to Holders launches: opt in at launch and trading fees stream to holders. v1 pays in your token (the quote side is bought back into it). Next version (soon) will you pick the payout: quote token, your token, or both. No staking, just hold and claim. > 194 Robinhood Stock Tokens to pair launches with.show more

🚨 #Canton just nuked the “you need liquidity” narrative... that crypto payment networks have been selling for a decade. For years the story was simple: to move value at scale you need deep pools, bridge assets, pre-funded accounts, or an on-demand liquidity token in the middle. No liquidity = no real volume. That was the gospel for every OG payment network. Canton looked at that model and said LOL, no. Atomic settlement is native. DvP and PvP happen as one indivisible transaction. Both legs settle together or neither does. No Herstatt risk, no settlement window, no intermediary warehousing risk or inventory. You can move billions (already happening: trillions in monthly flow, hundreds of billions in daily repo) with zero dedicated liquidity in the middle. Parties just exchange. Protocol guarantees simultaneity. No market maker, no bridge token, no pre-funding needed. OG payment networks are scrambling to reframe it as complementary or “we’re the liquidity layer.” Goalposts moving because the thesis that you must solve liquidity first just got demolished. Canton’s atomic swaps don’t need liquidity pools to move billions. They just move them. 1⃣Clean. 2⃣Private. 3⃣Final. 4⃣Simultaneous. The liquidity narrative was never a law of nature. It was a limitation of the old architecture. Canton deleted it. 🪦show more
