About Aborean

Aborean is a decentralised finance (DeFi) protocol engineered to optimise capital efficiency for the Abstract chain. Aborean facilitates seamless integration of liquidity provisioning, governance, and incentive structures, creating a robust and adaptable liquidity bootstrap to the Abstract ecosystem.


Sustainable Growth

Aborean is built to grow the Abstract ecosystem. veABX holders vote to allocate token rewards to specific pools, incentivizing liquidity providers to add capital. As pools deepen, trades execute with greater fluidity. This leads to volume increasing, meaning that greater value is retained by the protocol.

This process creates a closed feedback loop. Fee revenue returns to veABX voters. LPs earn incentives that reflect real usage. Governance becomes a capital allocator. Capital becomes governance. The loop continues.

Aborean sustains itself by directing protocol outputs to reinforce the inputs. The more it is used, the stronger it becomes. Growth is native and self perpetuating.


Fees

Aborean generates protocol fees through several mechanisms. Core to this is the swap fee earned on every trade routed through the system. These fees are distributed among veABX voters and liquidity providers according to the voting outcomes that direct emissions and fee flows.

veABX holders vote for specific liquidity pools. The more voting power a pool receives, the greater its share of ABX emissions and swap fees. This ensures capital and incentives flow toward the most valued trading pairs.

Additionally, Aborean retains a fraction of swap fees at the protocol level to fund long-term development, auditing, and public infrastructure contributions.


Dynamic Swap Fees

Aborean employs a dynamic fee model, with swap fees ranging from as low as 0.04% in high-liquidity, concentrated pools to up to 1% in more volatile or low-liquidity pools. Fees are configured per pool to balance competitive trading costs with LP incentives.


Distribution to veABX Holders

Holders of vote-escrowed ABX (veABX) tokens are entitled to a share of the trading fees. By locking ABX tokens, users obtain veABX, which grants them governance rights and the ability to vote on protocol decisions, including the allocation of emissions to specific liquidity pools. The distribution of trading fees to veABX holders is proportional to their voting power and the pools they support.


Liquidity Providers

Liquidity providers (LPs) contribute to the protocol by supplying token pairs to liquidity pools. In return, they receive a portion of the trading fees generated by the pools they support. Additionally, LPs can stake their liquidity pool tokens in gauges to earn ABX emissions, further incentivising liquidity provision.


Analytics

Protocol metrics will be made publicly available via a dedicated analytics dashboard. These include:

• TVL and pool depth

• Emission allocations per epoch

• Governance participation rates

• Airdrop engagement

• Fee revenue and distribution breakdowns

All data is derived from verifiable onchain sources, updated in real time. Aborean aims to maintain the highest standard of public transparency across its operations.
