2x faster BTC & ETH swaps

We’ve reduced block confirmations required for swaps on BTC and ETH, doubling speed and improving UX across the board.

• BTC: 3 → 2 confirmations

• ETH: 6 → 3 confirmations

This change improves execution times, shortens integration loops for partners, and tightens the overall swap experience, especially for high-volume users.

• Backup validators removed, reducing emissions by 20%

• Set size reduced with higher minimum bids

• Native FLIP transfers enabled between validator accounts

These changes raise the bar for validator participation and set the stage for long-term network hardening.

We’ve overhauled how Stablecoin Strategies behave, giving LPs more control, smarter automation, and stronger APY potential.

What’s New

Dynamic Spread Adjustment
LPs can now set different buy and sell spreads that automatically adapt over time based on asset balance and market flow.

→ For example:

If you’re overweight in USDT, the strategy will widen your buy range for USDC and tighten your sell range for USDT, encouraging rebalancing in the right direction.

This dynamic, asymmetric pricing makes strategies more responsive, capital-efficient, and better positioned to capture yield opportunities.

Learn more

Smarter quotes, better execution

The old quoting system often showed prices that didn’t reflect actual swap execution, as LPs front ran each other right before execution, and users ended up with much better prices as a result. This update introduces a smarter backend model to fix that.

Quote Accuracy Improvement

The new quoter accounts for LP behaviour during execution time vs quotes provided, since now we can connect quotes vs executed prices

Better listings, better indexing

We’re making it easier to discover Chainflip, both through major aggregator platforms and organic search.

DefiLlama Adapters Live

• Chainflip is now listed across multiple DefiLlama Yield pages:

  • Stablecoins

  • Projects

  • General Yields

• Improves visibility alongside other top DeFi protocols

• Not eligible for bridge listings (no EVM contracts required)

Technical SEO Improvements

• Reduced duplicate content

• Fixed broken links and crawl issues

• Improved page structure and internal linking

More eyes, cleaner indexing, and a stronger foundation for long-term discovery.

Less guesswork, more confidence

We’ve overhauled the LP deposit and withdrawal flow to make it easier, and safer, for liquidity providers to manage their funds.

• Wallet connection support: LPs can now connect their wallet directly to guide the process

• Smarter flow detection: System checks for correct asset and amount before confirming

• Error reduction: Helps prevent accidental deposits of unsupported or incorrect tokens

• Clearer UI: More visible status indicators and actionable next steps

This change was driven by direct LP feedback and is designed to reduce friction and eliminate common errors in the LP process.

Cleaner metrics, smarter context

This update refines how we present trading volume and broker stats across the Explorer, reducing confusion and surfacing the right numbers for each user type.

Swap Stats Toggle

• New toggle lets users switch between:

  • Filled Volume (default): How much LPs fill in pools

  • Swap Volume: Total inflow per swap request

• Tooltips added for clarity around both metrics

• Affects Volume, Boost, and DCA stats, not Latest Swaps or Top Sources/Destinations

Broker Stats 2.0

• New structure for Main vs Affiliate Brokers

• Shows separate metrics for:

  • Broker’s own swaps, volume, fees

  • Swaps/volume routed via 'Affiliates'

• 3-tab chart view: Volume, Swaps, Fees

• Export functionality + advanced filters

• Uses new dropdown components for smoother UX

LP Stats Refresh

• Replaced old area charts with stacked bar charts for consistency

• Titles, tooltips, and stat labels clarified

• All LP volume is now labelled 'Filled Volume'

This update clears up long-standing double-counting confusion, better aligns stats with actual protocol behaviour, and lays the groundwork for future Explorer insights.
