$NABLA is launching on Fjord Foundry

We are a community-owned project started in 2022 by a bunch of DeFi nerds based on an idea to eliminate the complexities of onchain liquidity.

We do NOT have:

🚫 Paid KOLs to dump on you
🚫 Big VC allocation: Our only VC is Smape, and they joined the “angel round,” not the other way around
🚫 Bullsh*t

We have:

✅ Team members from three continents
✅ Community members and volunteer mods/guardians from all over the world
✅ "Real-yield" that feels like out of this world

Show me the results

Our yields rank among the TOP 5 for the "no-IL" "single-asset" category on Defillama.

**What's this f*cking sorcery?**

Nabla features single-asset pools, and the yield of the pools is generated by the hyper-efficient Nabla AMM. The AMM uses oracle-informed pricing to frontrun the price on other AMMs.

So both arbitrageurs and traders get the best and fastest price, and also, the pools are protected from Impermanent loss (IL) / Loss-versus-Rebalancing (LVR).

Nabla Pools are:

Single-sided, and depositors receive a fungible yield-bearing version of their asset that can be reused in DeFi.
Protected from risks thanks to an insurance pool, aka the Backstop Pool.

Nabla AMM:

Sets the price of the assets using a combination of high-frequency oracle, a volatility protection mechanism (EV:GO), and custom slippage curves. This results in a more than 95% reduction of IL/LVR.
Achieves the highest possible capital efficiency by concentrating liquidity within a few basis points around the market-fair price at all times.

Highlights

1⃣ Launched on Arbitrum and Base with six liquidity pools.
2⃣ $6M-$12M weekly swap volume with $700k TVL.
3⃣ Already generates the best yields for the listed assets as seen on Defillama.
4⃣On Nov 28, we launched one of the first yield-bearing meme tokens $naDEGEN.

Funding Rounds

We always raised only as much as we needed to reach the next milestone, showing progress at each stage before raising the next small round.

Nabla Finance received a $100k incubation budget from Satoshipay in 2022. This was followed by three funding rounds at these valuations:

Angel Round 1: $315k raised at $6M FDV (Aug 2022)
Angel Round 2: $150k raised at $10M FDV (Dec 2023)
Community Private Presale: $210k raised at $20M FDV (May 2024)

We planned a low FDV Fjord sale, but that would make our earlier rounds less favorable. So we thought: f*ck it, let's make this as close to a fair launch as possible. We want our entire community to benefit from an attractive entry and go on the ride with us.

After discussions with our early backers, we agreed to align all previous rounds to match the Fjord round at $6M FDV.
