We’ve made the decision to build @labs_onink on top of the @Quotrons404 liquidity infrastructure on @inkonchain. And there’s a very specific reason why. LABS is being built as an onchain financial product issuer. We want to manufacture curated, rules-based exposures like: LABS AI LABS MAG7 LABS MOMENTUM LABS TECH LABS RISK Think of them as programmable baskets that can be constructed, rebalanced and traded entirely onchain. For that model to work, the most important primitive isn’t the frontend. It’s liquidity. Quotrons is building something particularly interesting: tokenized equity liquidity pools on Ink using Uniswap v4 infrastructure, xStocks and USDG, with fee logic embedded directly into the pools. That gives LABS the ability to build above an existing liquidity layer rather than trying to recreate one from scratch for every product we launch. A LABS basket can eventually route into underlying markets, rebalance between constituents and create entirely new structured exposures while tapping into the same shared liquidity infrastructure. And the relationship works both ways. LABS generates volume → the underlying pools capture activity → liquidity providers and the broader ecosystem benefit → deeper liquidity makes LABS products better. That flywheel is extremely important to us. We don’t want LABS to become another isolated DeFi application competing for fragmented liquidity. We want it to become a product layer built on top of an existing financial market. Quotrons is building the rails. LABS intends to build the products that ride on them. 🧪 @cruelhandeth @arjunsethi @gmoneyNFT
