Step Hero And Kyber Collaborate to Optimize Liquidity for the $HERO Token

4 min readSep 16, 2021

Step Hero has chosen the highly capital efficient KyberDMM DEX for better token liquidity on BSC, with $150,000 in $HERO and $KNC liquidity mining rewards.

As of September 1, Binance Smart Chain (BSC) users now have another DEX and liquidity source to choose from — KyberDMM, which brings both capital efficiency and optimized returns to BSC liquidity providers and token traders. To kick off this macro initiative to bootstrap the liquidity and adoption of KyberDMM on BSC; KyberDMM and BSC jointly launched a two-month long ‘Rainmaker’ liquidity mining campaign on KyberDMM, with $4M in rewards to incentivize strategic pools that are foundational to both trading and Dapp usage on BSC.

As part of this strategic initiative, the Kyber Network community has been voting on promising projects on BSC to increase both the number and liquidity of key token-pair pools on KyberDMM as well as incentivize them with attractive liquidity mining campaigns. These joint initiatives with key projects are starting with the launch of a liquidity mining campaign with Step Hero, via our HERO-BNB pool.

KyberDMM DEX allows $HERO LP’s to maximise the use of capital via:

Amplified Liquidity Pools with extremely high capital efficiency; less tokens required to achieve better liquidity and rates compared to AMMs.
Dynamic Fees that optimise returns for LPs.
Better Reliability & Security: Audited by ChainSecurity and insured up to $20M by Unslashed Finance.

From ~September 16 at 21:00 GMT+8, liquidity providers can add any amount of liquidity to the HERO-BNB pool on KyberDMM on BSC to unlock their share of the $150,000 in $HERO and $KNC liquidity mining rewards over the next two months.

$HERO can be staked to receive NFT’s and be used in-game as incentives and for other functions such as purchasing mystery NFT chests and summoning two NFTs to have a new one. $KNC rewards can be added into the KNC/BNB pool for extra liquidity mining incentives, or staked on KyberDAO for additional KNC rewards.
