Celer cEconomy Launch Plan — Liquidity Backing
By: Celer Network
Tags: Blockchain, Celernetwork, Celertech

We are officially starting the registration for our EXCLUSIVE cryptoeconomic Liquidity Backing Alpha Testnet, one of the biggest milestones for Celer Network cryptoeconomic, a.k.a. cEconomy!

Our cryptoeconomic mechanisms are designed to address the new fundamental tradeoffs in off-chain state channel network ecosystems: network liquidity and state availability. We provide two solutions to these two independent challenges: addressing the scalability-liquidity tradeoff through the Liquidity Backing, and the scalability-availability tradeoff through State Guardian Network (SGN). For more details on the problem analysis and our solution architectures, please refer to related sections in our CelerCore technical documentation.

Celer Liquidity Backing is part of the Celer cryptoeconomics. Its goal is to meet the state channel network liquidity challenge by creating a easy-to-access liquidity crowdlending market for Off-Chain Service Providers (OSPs) to borrow funds to support their operations. To understand more about the liquidity backing design and process, please refer to the tech doc.

We are very excited to announce that our Liquidity Backing Alpha Testnet is open to the public for testing! Celer cEconomy Launch Plan includes 2 phrases — Liquidity Backing and State Guardian Network (SGN). We will first focus on Phase 1 — Liquidity Backing Alpha Testnet testing. You will act as the Network Liquidity Backers (NLB), a.k.a the lenders in the network. NLBs will be able to get rewards by lock their tokens in the PoLC contract, and earn interest by lending out their tokens to OSPs. The main purpose for this alpha testnet is to further test our liquidity backing process and collect feedback for the upcoming mainnet launch.

This campaign will last for 1 month on Ropsten, so that all lenders will have enough time to test different scenarios, such as different lending durations, different interest rates, etc. We will send out Ropsten test DAI and CELR tokens to selected participants and share the user manual to guide lenders to follow along the entire lending process. By committing funds in the network, lenders will be able to collect interests and CELR tokens as rewards. The more tokens you stake in the network, the more rewards you will receive. After the campaign finishes, we will reward the top 3 lenders who hold the most amount of tokens.
