He added that the protocol's tokens <span aria-hidden=\"true\">\u2014<\/span>SKY, USDS, and sUSDS <span aria-hidden=\"true\">\u2014 <\/span>will be bridged to Solana using Wormhole.<\/p>\n<p>Christensen noted that while Solana isn't yet as large as Ethereum, it has the potential for significant growth. He pointed out that DeFi primitives are already <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/defi-landscape-shifts-as-solana-dethrones-ethereum-in-trading-volume\/\">established on Solana<\/a>, providing the foundation for expansion.<\/p>\n<p>However, what's missing is the decentralized stablecoin and features that Sky offers\u2014native savings rates, token rewards, and the ability to deploy large-scale capital within trusted Solana protocols.<\/p>\n<p>He acknowledged the challenges of integrating with Solana due to the differences between Ethereum Virtual Machine and Solana's infrastructure. However, using Wormhole as a short-term solution allows Sky to build early momentum ahead of the full Solana SkyLink deployment.<\/p>\n<h2>Incentive program<\/h2>\n<p>Sky also plans to launch a short-term liquidity incentive program. This initiative will offer SKY tokens to DeFi integrators and liquidity providers on Solana, creating early network effects for the full SkyLink deployment.<\/p>\n<p>According to Christensen, the temporary token incentive program will be managed by Accessibility Facilitators. This program will use existing incentive systems in major DeFi protocols on Solana. Input from both the Sky and Solana DeFi communities will guide the program.<\/p>\n<p>He said that two key liquidity areas must be incentivized \u2014 USDS\/USDC and USDS\/sUSDS \u2014 to ensure that the stablecoin operates smoothly on Solana.<\/p>\n<p>The incentive program will offer up to 2 million SKY tokens per week, but the Accessibility Facilitators are advised to use less once the initial phase is complete. These temporary rewards will end with the launch of Solana SkyLink and be replaced by Sky's native token rewards \u2014 SKY, CLE, and SPK tokens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sky, formerly known as MakerDAO, plans to launch its decentralized stablecoin, USDS, on Solana using the Wormhole interoperability protocol.
