Seasons’ Yield-Bearing Liquidity Pools
$SEAS Liquidity Now Compounds Daily, Automatically
Shilsi4 min read·Just now--
We just expanded the liquidity infrastructure backing $SEAS. Two new pools on Raydium, both paired with Jupiter Lend USDC ($jlUSDC), a yield-bearing stablecoin that auto-compounds. They now complement our existing $SEAS/$USDC, $SEAS/$USDT, and $SEAS/$WSOL markets.
Each $jlUSDC automatically becomes worth more $USDC over time as lending yields accrue. Unlike in a standard pool, where $USDC just provides liquidity (and nothing else), the stablecoin side of our new $SEAS/$jlUSDC pools generates lending yield in addition to providing liquidity to facilitate $SEAS trades.
The dollar value of these pools thus grows even if no trades pass through them. And since $jlUSDC comprises 40% of our upgraded Inclusion Set, along with $wBTC and $XAUt0, using it in our protocol-owned liquidity stack further aligns the long-term interests of $SEAS holders, especially nodes, with the token’s value accrual framework.

Deeper liquidity, daily, by design
The $jlUSDC side compounds continuously in small increments, so the liquidity floor under $SEAS now grows on its own. This means better execution for buyers, more capital available to absorb any sell-pressure, and a growing cushion against sudden price moves. Without the need to deploy additional capital or any temporary incentive program to prop up the numbers.
Deeper, more resilient liquidity directly strengthens our ‘Volume x Velocity’ model. Lower slippage on trades organically incentivizes more volume flowing through $SEAS pools, which, in turn, generates more fees and more yield for nodes. Further, a portion of this yield is being paid out in $jlUSDC as well, initiating a reflexive flywheel — the liquidity layer and the cashflow layer, both powered by the same appreciating asset. Every component reinforces the others.
What’s more, with $jlUSDC cementing its position as core Solana DeFi infrastructure by going live on Project 0, yield-bearing stablecoins are gaining steady momentum, and the sector has a current market cap of over $20 billion. And now this growing asset class has become one of the core pillars supporting $SEAS liquidity.
Same pair, two different models
Both pools hold the same asset pair ($SEAS and $jlUSDC), but we deployed them with two different liquidity models: Constant Product Market Maker (CPMM) and Concentrated Liquidity Market Maker (CLMM).
The CPMM pool serves as a backstop, providing full price-range coverage. It ensures that there’s always liquidity during sharp moves or volatile periods, regardless of where the price goes. It will keep $SEAS tradable and liquid through extreme conditions.
On the other hand, the CLMM facilitates precision. As the name suggests, it concentrates capital around the current trading price for tighter spreads, less slippage, and better execution for everyday trades. CLMM pools can deliver up to 4,000x more depth at the active price compared to a standard AMM with equivalent capital.
One handles the extremes. The other handles the day-to-day. Jupiter’s routing engine evaluates both and directs volume to the pool that offers the best execution.
What changes for $SEAS holders and nodes
Working alongside our existing infrastructure, the yield-bearing liquidity pools make $SEAS more reliable and cost-effective overall. And as such, everyone involved with the token, whether as a node or otherwise, will reap the benefits of deeper, more resilient liquidity that compounds organically, every day, on its own.
That said, nothing changes in terms of how users interact with Seasons. It’s still the exact same flow, with better execution under the hood: hold 10,000+ $SEAS and earn liquid yield in $wBTC, $XAUt0, and $jlUSDC.
Seasons is designed to turn users’ wallets into onchain high-yield savings accounts, delivering a constant stream of value to $SEAS holders under any market conditions. And just like everything else, the two new yield-bearing liquidity pools mark another leap in that direction.
Seize this moment. $SEAS the yield. And just let it grow.
