# Polymer x Secret Network

Start with featurs of Polymer

1. **Why another DEX on SN?**
    - There are no balancer-like DEXes
    - 
    
2. How will this increase TVL?
    - Integrated bridging for IBC / EVM assets, or even BTC (far future via Shinobi or our own solution)
    - LP rewards from swaps + saking will incentivize adoption

3. Features in the DEX
    - Our UI is actually good
    - Dividends for staking our token
        - Dividends 
    - Balancer vault design
    - Up to 8 asset weighted pools
    - Singlesided LP
    - Cross-chain staking derivatives
    - Tax friendly design
    - Portfolios
    - LP / Trader dashboard
    - Sustainable DEX design, fees are converted to native assets and staked cross-chain
    - PWA Desktop app

4. Long term vision
    - End-to-end bridging
        - Integrated bridging *in Swap View*
    - Yield market
    - Private frontends to other swaps


## Stuff we never got to mention to Jay:

### About Polymer
SecretSwap and SiennaSwap have very low TVL, and we aim to bring the next order-of-magnitude influx of liquidity that protocols like Osmosis and Anchor did for their respective chains. 

We want to be the first DEX on Secret with:
- Bridge support for all chains (Ethereum, BSC, Cosmos, BTC/BTC-like)
- A token backed by dividends
- High rewards through a SCRT staking derivative
- Low gas fees
- A desktop experience (the first one for Secret) 

###  How will Polymer increase Secret Network TVL?
- More assets being bridged onto Secret --> Higher network TVL
- More swaps - more transactions occuring on Secret --> More demand for SCRT

### How will Polymer stack up against the competition?
Against SecretSwap & SiennaSwap:
- Easy bridging from within DEX interface, not just to Cosmos chains but to EVM & Bitcoin-like chains as well
- Graphs of portfolio performance over time (historical indexing)

### What will you use the money for?
| Amount | Allocation | 
| --- | --- |
| 20k SCRT | Bootstrapping initial liquidity for core pools and pSCRT |
| 4k SCRT | Development expenses & advertising campaign |

### Can I see the MVP?
- We should have a testnet MVP up and running by May or June.
