What are Ekubo points?
In November 2023, Ekubo introduced its leaderboard and a new points system.
Ekubo points are distributed to liquidity providers (LPs) who create a position on Ekubo and earn fees. The leaderboard lets you see how you’ve performed against others.
At Argent, we're always looking for ways to help our community. So, we sweet-talked Ekubo into giving you a 20% point boost. But you’ll only get the boost if you use the referral link!
Here's how to open a position on Ekubo with Argent's exclusive referral link:
Step 1: Click on the Argent referral link
Access the Argent referral link by clicking here: https://app.ekubo.org/positions/new?referrer=0x64d28d1d1d53a0b5de12e3678699bc9ba32c1cb19ce1c048578581ebb7f8396
Alternatively, you can:
- Click on the Ekubo banner in Argent X
- Visit Ekubo via dappland.com
- On Argent Mobile, click 'Explore' and choose 'Liquidity pools'
If you see the green ‘Referred by argent.stark’ banner, you’re on the correct link.
To create a position on Ekubo, you need two tokens—for example, ETH and USDC.
Step 2: Connect your Argent X Starknet wallet and create your position.
- Select the pool for which you want to provide liquidity. For example, the ETH/USDC pool.
- Select the price range in which you want to provide liquidity, for example, between $2100<>$2500 for ETH.
- Specify how much liquidity you want to provide—for example, 0.003 ETH and 10 USDC.
Once you are happy with your position, click '+ Add liquidity'.
Step 3: Confirm the transaction in Argent X.
The fee for this transaction will be higher than a regular swap or transfer. This is because multiple transactions are being initiated to create your position.
Fortunately, thanks to Multicall, Argent X can execute all the transactions simultaneously. Saving you time.
Once confirmed, your two tokens will be sent into an Ekubo liquidity pool, where they will begin collecting fees and accumulating Ekubo points with a 20% boost.
An NFT representing your position on Ekubo will be generated and sent to your wallet. If you withdraw 100% of your liquidity, the ‘Ekubo Position’ NFT will be burned.
Note: Selling the NFT for less than the value of your position on Ekubo will result in a loss.
Step 4: Monitor your position.
Once your position has been created, you can monitor it at https://app.ekubo.org/positions
You can also connect your wallet to see how many Ekubo points you have accumulated at https://app.ekubo.org/leaderboard
Your Ekubo position will become inactive and stop collecting fees and Ekubo points if the price is outside your price range.
If you followed these steps, your position on Ekubo will now have been created!
Thanks for following along. We hope you enjoy accumulating 20% more Ekubo points with Argent’s exclusive referral code.
