How to List Your Token on Stargate

This guide explains how to obtain Stargate support for bridging your token.

OFT

Stargate will list any OFT that requests a listing, as mandated by the DAO in this vote. As part of this vote, every transfer through Stargate will also be subject to a 2bps (0.02%) fee. Please fill out this form with all relevant information regarding your OFT. It is required that the networks where the OFTs are deployed are fully interconnected (full-mesh). For example, if your OFT contracts are deployed on networks A, B, and C, ensure the following pathways are active: A<>B ; B<>C ; A<>C .

Additionally, every pathway MUST have enforcedOptions set. You can read more about this in LayerZero's documentation.

Hydra (OFTs)

Hydra operates on a foundational principle where Stargate's core pools, residing on chains with native assets (e.g., Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism), are leveraged to facilitate asset bridging to newer chains lacking native assets. The Hydra supported assets are OFTs. If you would like to enable the Hydra supports for your chain, you should contact the Stargate Foundation to facilitate the deployment.

APD - Autonomous Pool Deployment

If your token is not using OFT standard, you can still have it listed on Stargate. To do this, start by submitting a proposal on Commonwealth by following the instructions provided in this guide. Your proposal must undergo and pass the governance process, including receiving community approval through votes on Snapshot. After approval, you are required to provide the specified liquidity for each pool as outlined in your proposal. Furthermore, if your proposal includes incentive programs, you should implement these as well. Lastly, you will be responsible for managing the pools, specifically rebalancing them when liquidity in certain pathways runs low, which could impact users' ability to bridge tokens.
