Acquire Bonds (LBP)
The HydraDX Protocol uses Bonds as part of its strategy to grow and diversify its Protocol-owned liquidity (POL). For this purpose, the HydraDX Governance can at any time decide to issue a given amount of bonds which will be traded against assets that the HydraDX Treasury wishes to accumulate.
This page contains a step-by-step guide on how to acquire Bonds via LBP on HydraDX. Before proceeding, we recommend that you get familiar with Bonds: https://docs.hydradx.io/bonds.
Step 0: Navigate to HydraDX Bonds Page
https://app.hydradx.io/trade/bonds
Connect your wallet to HydraDX by clicking Connect Account (1 in image above).
Step 1: Pick the Bond you want to support
- You will be able to see all current active Bond campaigns (2) as well as past campaigns (3).
- Click on
Tradeto enter into the dedicated Bonds campaign which you want to contribute to.
Step 2: Participate in the Bonds LBP
Before participating in a Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP), you should first get familiar with how an LBP works.
Find more info in our docs.
The HydraDX Bonds LBP UI allows you to intuitively execute the swap:
- Select the token you intend to use and enter the amount (4).
- A price graph tracking the LBP price history and price trajectory (without any new trades) is provided for users to reference.
If the user conducts the swap with any asset other than the targeted asset (USDT in the example above), the protocol will automatically swap that asset into the target asset, meaning that the user will experience additional swap fees and price impact.
Note that if the user were to sell back the Bond at any time during the LBP auction, there will also be an additional return fee incurred.
- If you would like to adjust your slippage preferences, you can do so by clicking on the Settings Icon (5).
- To complete the trade, click on Swap (7) and sign the transaction using your wallet app.
- Once you have completed the swap, the acquired bonds will show up under My Bonds (8).
