πŸ—³[TIP-010] Introduce THORSwap fees for Lending (Borrow)

Thank you to everyone who participated on on-chain voting for [[TIP-010] Introduce THORSwap fees for Lending (Borrow) https://snapshot.org/#/thorswapcommunity.eth/proposal/0x63c2d3820f2dacb1af0c95aa0d0d1579c5a535ff4f6c6c1a2d86b051f61fbfbb

With 6.5M (95.7%) of votes, the community is in favour of introducing an origination fee of 1% to THORChain loans on THORSwap.

The fee will be charged in a tiered format discounted based on size of loan and amount of vTHOR held. Up to remaining completely free for holders β‰₯500K vTHOR. There will be no fees charged for Loans under $100 value.

Fees earned will be shared 75/25 between vTHOR stakers and treasury as in-line with current swap fee structure.

The fee will be introduced once this THORChain update has been adopted: https://gitlab.com/thorchain/thornode/-/merge_requests/3425
πŸ“£ vTHOR/RUNE Liquidity Pool live on THORChain

A new $vTHOR pool has gone live on THORChain. This means users are now able to deposit $vTHOR/RUNE LP (Impermanent Loss applies) to earn yield as well as swap for $vTHOR directly as well as mint synthetic $vTHOR.

Be aware:
Pools are currently very shallow - only deposit LP if you are familiar with the process and risks involved.
$vTHOR trading discounts currently does not apply if you are LP-ing your $vTHOR
$vTHOR voting on TIP proposals are currently not supported if you are LP-ing your $vTHOR

Note:
$vTHOR price is determined by arbitrage to set the pool price of vthor, based on the real thor:vthor ratio and thor pool price
IL/balance changes in the vTHOR/RUNE pair does not affect vTHOR/THOR redemption ratio (which continues to scale based on the amount $THOR locked in the $vTHOR staking contract).
⚠️ BNB Beacon Chain (BEP2) THORChain Ragnarok ⚠️

This is a final warning to all users to withdraw any BEP2 liquidity on THORChain pools/savers vaults (earn).

And don't forget πŸ‘‰ REDEEM YOUR BEP2 Synths (!) They will NOT be refunded.

> From THORChain devs: "The Ragnarok process [sunsetting all BEP2 pools and removing the Beacon Chain integration) is best effort. There is no guarantee of success when forcibly returning funds to users. Users need to withdraw before the Ragnarok starts to guarantee successful return of their funds."

This pertains to Beacon Chain LPs only (wallet address starts with bnb...). If your address starts with 0x (BNB Smart Chain) then no action is needed.

Cosmos Hub Hard Fork Maintenance Pause
Cosmos (ATOM) is currently halted on THORChain due a chain hardfork. All ATOM functions are paused (swap/LP/Earn/send etc) at this time.

Other chains and functions are unaffected, thank you for your patience.
⚠️ THORChain Network Functions Paused for Maintenance

THORChain has temporarily halted all native transactions (swaps involving RUNE, loans, THORNames and synth transactions) due to a security report related to a new feature which has not been activated yet.

THORChain is taking this measure pre-emptively.

THORChain has also proactively paused L1 trading on THORChain to help protect users from incorrect price execution/trading UX due to lack of arbs from synth pause.
ο»Ώ
L1 swaps may be re-enabled on THORSwap (excluding Rune) with tweaked streaming swaps settings (slower) if arbitrage bots keep the prices of assets in line with the market without native THORChain functions enabled.
ο»Ώ
πŸ‘‰ RUNE LP actions, Earn (Savers vaults) operations, synthetic asset send/mint/redeem, THORName and Lending will remain paused until THORChain resumes normal operations.
ο»Ώ
βœ… All other providers are functioning normally, covering Bitcoin, Ethereum, stable coins and most erc20 tokens.
THORChain resumes after quick pause

Thorchain released a quick patch and validators adopted it in record time πŸ™

For a short technical write up, you can check this tweet: https://x.com/THORChain/status/1770529800828153866?s=20

tl;dr: a white hat responsibly filed a report on Immunifi about a recent code change, which TC/9R contributors very quickly addressed.

A big s/o to the white hat 🫑 and all other participants that acted quickly to make this preemptive pause as short as possible.

All Thorchain actions resumed!

Update on THORChain Lending pause

THORChain Lending services on THORSwap are currently paused due to TOR pool depth being shallower than expected. A proposed THORChain update (https://gitlab.com/thorchain/thornode/-/merge_requests/3450) aims to correct this issue, bringing the TOR pool depth back to normal levels.

Due to the current contracted TOR pool depth, the internal swaps required to open/close lending positions cannot be streamed. Thus, while the lending quotes are accurate, they present the likelihood of >significant slippage<.

THORSwap is committed to maintaining transparency and safeguarding users, lending will likely remain paused until the update fix is implemented and verified.
