Add Liquidity

TL;DR

When a creator picks Add Liquidity as the fee destination, the creator fee is retained inside the pool's own reserves instead of being paid out. Pre-grad, this deepens the bonding curve's backing. Post-grad, it permanently grows the value of the LP tokens that were burned at migration. No payout ever.

Pre-graduation

The LIQUIDITY_MARKER sentinel tells the bonding curve "self is the destination" — the fee AVAX is added to reserveQuote. Effects:

  • The curve's quoted price moves slightly less per unit of volume (deeper reserves soften price impact).
  • The eventual migration to SnowDex seeds the new pair with more liquidity than a comparable non-add-liquidity pool.

Post-graduation

On SnowDex, the fee WAVAX stays in the SnowPair's balance and is folded into reserve1. Because the LP tokens from the initial seed were burned at migration, no one can withdraw this liquidity. Every buyback-qualifying trade permanently grows the value per remaining LP token (for anyone who added liquidity later).

The indexer emits a LiquidityCompounded event each time; the add-liquidity API exposes historical totals.

UX

  • Liquidity terminal tab — shows cumulative compounded liquidity and the effective "depth boost" vs. a non-add-liquidity pool.
