Liquidity fragmentation has long been a challenge in decentralized finance (DeFi). Assets are spread across multiple blockchains, making it difficult for developers to create efficient financial applications and for users to move capital easily. Saga’s Liquidity Integration Layer (LIL), now live, aims to address this issue by introducing a system where liquidity flows freely across the Saga ecosystem and beyond.
Shifting to a Liquidity-First Model
Traditional blockchain models rely on gas fees to sustain networks, creating friction for users and limiting accessibility. LIL takes a different approach, prioritizing liquidity over transaction fees. Instead of charging users per transaction, Saga rewards liquidity providers, ensuring new projects can launch with built-in liquidity from day one.
This shift benefits both developers and users by creating a more accessible DeFi environment. Developers gain access to ready-to-use liquidity pools, while users experience seamless trading without gas fees.
Uniswap V3 on Saga - The First Appchain Deployment
As part of this rollout, Uniswap V3 is now live on Saga, marking its first-ever deployment as an independent appchain. This enables gasless trading, removing a significant barrier for retail users and further enhancing accessibility in DeFi.
With Uniswap V3 integrated into Saga’s LIL, liquidity providers can earn rewards while ensuring deeper liquidity for traders. This move reinforces Saga’s vision of making decentralized applications more efficient and scalable.
Seamless Cross-Chain Liquidity with Key Partners
LIL is designed to extend beyond Saga’s ecosystem. Key integrations with Squid, Oku, Axelar, and Evmos enable assets to move fluidly between chains, allowing for broader access to liquidity and interoperability between different blockchain networks.
Vault 2.0
With the launch of Vault 2.0, Saga is introducing new incentives beyond traditional staking rewards. Liquidity providers (LPs) can now earn alongside stakers, further strengthening the network’s liquidity base. This transition reflects the growing role of DeFi in Saga’s long-term vision, rewarding participants who contribute to the ecosystem’s liquidity.
What’s Next for LIL?
The launch of LIL is just the beginning. More than 20 projects have already joined the LIL Beta Program, spanning DeFi protocols, AI-powered applications, and other blockchain innovations.
Looking ahead, Saga plans to expand its DeFi capabilities with additional primitives such as:
Perpetual contracts
Lending markets
Yield optimization strategies
Get Started with LIL
Liquidity providers can now explore LIL’s full potential. Whether through staking, liquidity provision, or cross-chain asset transfers, Saga’s LIL offers new opportunities for participation in a unified DeFi ecosystem.
