January 26, 2025

We have an important update regarding Goblins Cash and our plans for the future. There are two major parts to this transition: ending our UniswapV3Staker farms (farming) and sunsetting our Synthetix StakingRewards contracts (Gob staking). Here’s what you need to know:

1️⃣ Sunsetting Uniswap V3 Farms ⏰

  • Our UniswapV3Staker farms will end on May 28, 2025.
  • This applies to farming on SmartBCH, BSC, and Base.
  • Why? We’re shifting to an improved reward structure that uses gauges to distribute weekly Gob rewards, rather than the current UniswapV3Staker model.

2️⃣ Phasing Out Gob Staking Contracts ❌

  • We will also sunset the Synthetix StakingRewards contracts on May 28, 2025.
  • Stakers will need to unstake and claim any Gob tokens by this date.
  • These staking contracts will be replaced by veGOB & Relay, offering enhanced governance and more direct control over fee distribution.

3️⃣ Preparing for Our Aerodrome Fork 🚀

  • As previously announced, we’re excited to launch our Aerodrome fork on June 1, 2025.
  • This fork aligns with our long-term strategy of providing sustainable rewards, robust governance, and a more community-focused ecosystem.

4️⃣ Transition to veGOB & Relay ⚡️

  • Once the old farms and staking end, we’ll introduce Relay (automated voting for veGob) and veGOB voting.
  • 100% of the pool fees will go to veGOB holders, depending on which gauges they vote for.
  • New Farming Gauges will distribute Gob rewards weekly, replacing the current UniswapV3Staker farms.
  • This structure aims to empower the community, reward long-term holders, and streamline governance.
  • Why We’re Doing This: This transition is part of the strategic shift we announced at the beginning of the year. By focusing on veGOB voting, Relay automation, and gauge-based rewards, we’re creating a healthier liquidity environment, a fairer fee distribution, and stronger alignment among all Goblins!

Next Steps

  • Mark Your Calendars 📅: Unstake and remove your liquidity by May 28, 2025 (for both UniswapV3Staker farms and Synthetix StakingRewards).Stay Tuned 🔔: We’ll share step-by-step instructions soon to help everyone migrate to our new Aerodrome-based model.
  • Get Involved ✊: Learn more about veGOB voting and Relay—these are the keys to voting power and fees in the Goblins Cash ecosystem.

Thank you for your ongoing support and patience. Together, we’re evolving Goblins Cash into a robust, community-driven ecosystem. If you have any questions or concerns, please drop a message in our official channels.

Onward and upward, Goblins! 🚀

I’m excited for our aerodrome fork in June! Also, it will help solve the DEX trilemma of balancing the needs of tokenholders, liquidity providers and traders on one of the top chains. Other protocols that want gauges for Goblins Cash can bootstrap their farms through veGob. I need to work on a whitelisting process though for the gauges.

Goblins! 🔥 We’re cooking up something special! Testing out improved position management for LPs directly on Goblins.Cash (outside the UniV3Staker farms!). Plus, vfat support for Aerodrome forks inside the farms is coming in June! Big things are happening. Stay tuned for updates!

  • Token Holders: Enjoy enhanced value and new utility as our refined economic model rewards your commitment.
  • Traders: Benefit from improved transaction efficiency and lower costs, ensuring a smoother trading experience.
  • Liquidity Providers: Experience optimized incentives that ensure your contributions are rewarded in a balanced and sustainable ecosystem.

Our renewed focus and dedication are grounded in our years of experience, setting the stage for a more vibrant and inclusive DeFi future. Join us as we reboot and redefine what Goblins Cash can achieve together.

Here is our updated Roadmap:

Goblins Roadmap 2025

March 10, 2025

Hey everyone 👋,

Today, the Goblin Cash devs went over the Relay (automated voting) for veGob Goblins Cash. Regarding the migration from Gob V1 to Gob V2, we have a couple of possible approaches:

  • CL Pool Swap: We can create a concentrated liquidity (CL) pool with a 0.01% fee at a 1:1 price ratio. All Gob V2 would sit in that pool, and once users swap their Gob V1 for Gob V2, the liquidity will be burned to the 0x000 address on BSC 🔥.
  • Migration Contract: Alternatively, Gob V2 can remain in the migration contract. We already have a Vercel frontend capable of adding liquidity and facilitating swaps on Base Sepolia. Our plan is to launch Gob V2 before the DEX goes live in June 🚀.

Also, today we were working on Universal Router contracts that will integrate with our new DEX too 🔗.

Just wanted to keep everyone in the loop about our discussions and next steps. Feel free to share any thoughts or questions!

Hello Goblins Cash Users,

  • Just a quick update: We didn’t hold a developer meeting today. However, we continue to make progress behind the scenes. Here are the key points:
  • Subgraph Migration: Our team is actively working on migrating the smartBCH subgraph server from Google Cloud to AWS. This transition is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our infrastructure.
  • Farm Schedule Update: Please note that all Goblins Cash farms for our CL fork of Uniswap V3 will stop on May 28, 2025.
  • Upcoming Launch: We’re excited to announce that Gob V2 and our CL fork of Aerodrome will launch on Binance Smart Chain on June 1, 2025.

We appreciate your continued support and will keep you informed as we move forward with these updates.

March 13, 2025

Hey Goblins,

We have some exciting updates as we continue the migration to GobV2:

  • Swaps on Aerodrome: We successfully completed swaps on Aerodrome and are integrating the Sugar SDK into our frontend.
  • Migration & Subgraph Deprecation: SmartBCH subgraphs will be deprecated in June as we transition to GobV2. The DEX will remain, but the home page will be removed.
  • vFat & Farm Manager Updates: Protocol fees from vFat (yield aggregator) and the farm manager will flow into bribe rewards for Goblins Cash V2.
  • Testnet & Mainnet Timeline: We are about 20-30 days (3-4 weeks) from the Base Sepolia Testnet launch and approximately 80 days from the Goblins Cash V2 mainnet launch.
  • BCH Volume Growth: BCH volume is starting to pick up on the BSC side, reflecting increasing activity.
  • Holiday Break & Analytics: We’ll be off tomorrow for the holiday, but plan to review Dune analytics dashboards for veGob holders when we return.

Thanks for your continued support as we refine and improve Goblins Cash V2!

Goblins Cash Update:

Yesterday’s Focus:

  • Governance: The team delved into the governance structure and procedures.
  • GOB Tail Emission Rate: A significant portion of the discussion centered on the implications and actions to be taken when GOB reaches its tail emission rate.

Uniswap V3 Staking vs. Aerodrome Fork:

  1. Uniswap V3 Staking: Requires multiple incentives and staking operations to earn multiple tokens per week.
  2. Aerodrome Fork (Our Implementation):
    a) A single gauge earns GOB emissions.
    b) Additional tokens are earned through bribe rewards.
    c) This allows users to earn multiple tokens with just one gauge (one staking operation), streamlining the process.

Today’s Progress:

  1. Gauge Frontend Integration: The team focused on the integration of gauges with the frontend, addressing:
    a) Visual representation of key metrics.
    b) Data flow and real-time updates.
    c) User experience.
    d) Goblins Cash V2 Testnet:
    e) The base Sepolia testnet for Goblins Cash V2 is still on track for early April.

March 19, 2025

Goblins!

We’ve been hard at work building and wanted to give you a comprehensive update on our progress.

Key Highlights:

  • Gauges Implementation: We’ve successfully implemented gauges, including the new lock and gauge features added today (GC-612 & GC-614)! This is a major step forward for our platform.
  • Base Sepolia Testnet: Our frontend is now live on Vercel, and we’re pushing to get our Base Sepolia test farming domain up and running by the end of this week.
  • As a token of appreciation for those who have been testing the gauges with us on Base Sepolia, we’ve distributed GobV2. Please note that this distribution is a gesture of thanks and should not be interpreted as a promise of future airdrops or guarantees.
  • CL Farm Sunset Plan: We’re planning to sunset the Goblin’s Cash CL farms (Uniswap V3 fork) as we focus on new developments. The current plan is to disable deposits on these farms when Base Sepolia goes live for Goblin’s Cash.
  • However, we understand the importance of these farms to some of you. If there’s a strong desire to keep deposits open until May 28th, please let us know. We’re open to extending the period if there’s enough community demand. We’re aiming to streamline and focus on our latest features.
  • BSC Farms Page Error: We’ve identified an error on our BSC farms page and are actively working on a fix.
  • Other recent commits: as you can see from the screen shot we have also recently committed “GC – 610 updated the fast api url” and “GC – 601 implemented swap for base sepolia” and also some work on the token list version.

March 26, 2025

Following up on the future plans for Goblins Cash (Gob V2) mentioned in the update:

We’re designing the GOBV2 system with a focus on community governance for rewards. The plan is for GOBV2 token holders to determine where rewards (farms) go using their voting power. This will likely involve locking GOBV2 to get veGOB (vote-escrowed GOB), and that veGOB balance will determine your voting weight.

In our current internal tests for this V2 model, we’ve been working with parameters that result in roughly 370 GOB in emissions being distributed per week based on these theoretical votes.

As noted, we plan to launch GOBV2 on BSC. The idea is to move away from the current manual farm setup. Instead, these farms on BSC could potentially function as “gauges” – similar to how platforms like Velodrome or Aerodrome work. veGOB holders would vote on these gauges weekly, and the distribute() function would need to be called each epoch (likely weekly) to send out the GOB rewards according to the vote results.

This new system is why the “Vote Page” was added recently – it’s the foundation for enabling veGOB holders to direct rewards in GOBV2. It aims to put the reward distribution directly in the hands of the token holders.

Hope this gives a clearer picture of the direction for V2 rewards!
