Proposal: Expand Custom Taker Fee on Stable to Stable Trades On Sei v2 - USDT0

To be posted to Snapshot 2025-04-13T13:00:00Z

TL;DR:

A previous proposal was brought up to the Bancor DAO that set a 0.001% (1/10th of a basis point) fee on stable to stable trades for certain trading pair(s) on Sei v2.

This proposal is looking to expand that list with the new to be launched USDT0 and possible combinations of USDT0 with other popular stablecoins (USDC, KAVA-USDT).

Overview:

The default taker fee on Carbon DeFi Sei v2 deployment is 0.4% which means that anyone taking an order from the protocol has to pay this amount. A previous proposal:

was brought up to the Bancor DAO to lower this fee to 0.001% on stable to stable trades for certain trading pairs in order to make Carbon DeFi more competitive with stable to stable swaps that are normally lower across all DEXs.

This list currently encompasses the following trading pairs:

USDC / KAVA-USDT
