The Genius Yield Platform is a decentralized application (dApp) ecosystem where users can interact with multiple applications. The Genius Yield Platform will initially have an order-book decentralized exchange with Smart Order Routers (SORs) that allow parallel order execution and staking dApp. In the future, the DEX will be enhanced to include additional features and advanced order types. The Genius Yield’s DEX will be one of the first DEXes on Cardano that eliminates impermanent loss, using an order-book model — similar to exchanges in traditional finance.

In this piece, we delve into the Fees Sharing Program, illustrating its role in providing rewards for those who participate on the Genius Yield Platform by staking its utility token, $GENS.

Why Genius Yield’s DEX?

At the core of our platform is an unyielding commitment to efficiency and transparency. The Genius Yield’s DEX leverages the Cardano ecosystem’s strengths to provide a state-of-the-art trading experience. Our open-source Smart Order Routers (SORs) eliminate the need for AMM-like batchers, allowing for parallel order execution and the decentralization of order execution. Furthermore, with the absence of impermanent loss, we offer one of the most efficient DEX experiences in the market.

We’ve harnessed the best of Cardano and integrated it into our DEX to give you the best-in-class trading experience!

The Fees Sharing Program: A Deep Dive

The Fees Sharing Program is ingeniously designed to distribute a percentage of DEX fees directly to stakeholders. This is not just a feature; it’s a commitment to grow alongside our users. By staking $GENS, our native token, participants unlock a seamless rewards-sharing opportunity — 20% of the fees generated by Genius Yield’s DEX will be passed on to participants who stake their $GENS tokens!

On Genius Yield’s DEX, all trading fees collected in ADA and various tokens throughout the day will be aggregated, with 20% of these fees then shared proportionally among all $GENS stakers, ensuring a fair and rewarding experience for our users. Rewards will start to be accrued with the launch of the Genius Yield’s DEX and available through the claiming process for every entitled $GENS staker. These trading fees will be added as rewards to existing and new GENS staking vaults, in addition to the current GENS rewards program. Details of the claiming process will be launched at a later date, please follow our social media channels to stay up to date!
