Nope, we’re not huffing nitrous oxide (well, not right at this moment), but we are deploying Nitro Pools on Kim.

What does this mean? Wtf is a Nitro Pool? How can I squeeze as much profit out of them as possible even if I don’t understand what it is?

Slow down, anon. Lay off the nitrous.

We’re here to explain all that.
What Are Nitro Pools?
For you; they’re a way for you to earn yet more rewards on your LP positions in Kim.

How?
By leveraging your kpNFTs - if you’re not already familiar, these are NFTs you receive that act like a “receipt”, of sorts, for your liquidity positions on Kim.

With Nitro Pools, you’ll be able to put them to work.

For Kim & partner protocols; they’re a way for us to further incentivize you to provide and maintain liquidity.

Flooring It with Nitro: Quick Guide

Okay, anon. After creating a position with kpNFTs, head on over to the My Positions of Kim.

Select the Locked kpNFT you wanna stake to Nitro Pool. If you haven't locked it yet, now is the time to join the cool gang.

For this example we’ve selected KIM <> MODE. Now you wanna hit “Stake to Nitro”.
*Only Locked kpNFTs can enjoy that sweet nectar of Nitro Pools.

Now, stake that kpNFT. EZPZ.

Gn, Anon
We hope you sleep soundly tonight, knowing that Nitro Pools are gonna work like steroids on your liquidity positions on Kim.

#Mode #Optimism #defi #Dex

Look, we get it, okay? There’s a lot going on with Kim. There are a hundred and one different ways to earn - lottery tickets, yield boosters, kpNFTs, MODE points, special pools.

IT CAN GET A LITTLE OVERWHELMING, WE KNOW.
That’s why we’ve written this. To steward you through the process of earning the most you can from Kim.

Let’s. Dive. In.
Maximizing Your Yields
Selecting Your Pools & Special Events
If you wanna start earning, you wanna pick a good pool, anon.

Be sure to keep an eye on the Pools section of Kim to keep up to date with the current APRs and rewards.
Wherever you see this, be sure to hover over it to see what exactly we’re offering in terms of bonus rewards!

Don’t forget, ever since we integrated with Steer you can leverage their reward optimization strategies when providing liquidity to make sure you’re getting the most bang outta your buck.
Staking $KIM & $xKIM
You have $KIM / $xKIM but it’s not staked or allocated correctly?

Eww.
Anon, $KIM is the lifeblood of the Kim ecosystem. If you have it, and you’re not leveraging it, you’re ngmi.

If you don’t have it, what are you waiting for? With $xKIM you’ll earn:
Protocol feesBoosted yield (if allocated to the yield booster)The attention of the opposite sex (or same sex, whatever way you swing we don’t care)

Check out our guide to optimizing yield with $xKIM here. 
Lock LP = Boost Rewards

Alrighty, anon. If you’re providing liquidity you will be offered the option to lock that LP up and, in return, you’ll get a nice big boost on your rewards.

If you’re truly a degen you’ll hit that “set max bonus” button.

Do it.
We dare you.

(but also fr don’t go crazy if you can’t handle risk, when your LP is locked you cannot remove it until the end of the locking period. Worth it tho).

A “Case Study”
We called it a “case study” ‘cos we thought it sounded professional. But really, it’s just an example.

Let’s take a look at what you’d get with a $5,000 ETH <> USDC LP right now.

With a maximum boost lock of 183d and by allocating 100 $xKIM to your position with the yield booster plugin, you’ll get an astonishing 1,250.457% APR.

Umm.

In rewards, you’d get:
Daily: $171.23
Monthly: $5,208.33
Annual: $62,500
Wait, why am I getting paid to write these blogs again? Imma do this RN.

Ciao for Now
Peace out, anon.

My Dearest ezETH holders,
Many a night I have slept alone, awaiting your return.

When I lay alone and think of you, #ezETH holders, I cannot help but be overcome with emotion.
How can it be, my dearest ezETH community, that you only receive the following:
EigenLayer rewardsETH Staking rewardsA wonderful LRT in the form of ezETH that can be leveraged throughout a plethora of DeFi ecosystems
It is because of this heartbreak that I write to you with the following.
ezETH holders, my arms are open wide awaiting your return.
A literal fk tonne of my dearest $KIM and $xKIM tokens are awaiting you upon your return. As part of my One Million Kim Campaign.

At a ratio of 4:1 : $xKIM:$KIM - each of your ezETH citizens will receive this reward pro-rata should they come home to me, Kim, and provide their liquid within my pool.
The ezETH <> ETH pool to be precise.
My dearest ezETH Community, I love you.
Thank you for enabling DeFi to thrive, not just here in the Kingdom of Mode and the land of Kim, but far abroad, too.
My dearest ezETH holders, I love you.

I await your arrival with glee,

Kim x
–
LMAO, okay, the boss said ‘hey, write something about the ezETH community of holders and let them know we think their protocol is great and we love them and we want to bring their ezETH <> ETH liquidity here’.

HE DIDN’T SAY HOW.

TL;DR
Let’s cut the Shakespearean theatrics, anon. It’s simple:
We love #Renzo love ezETH. We want ezETH holders to love us.
That’s why this week we’ll be offering the hottest incentives on the ezETH <> ETH pool on Kim.
Gone are points, so fk it - we’re dropping a tonne $KIM/$xKIM tokens as incentives on the ezETH <> ETH pool.

That’s in addition to the rewards you get from:
Protocol feesETH Staking rewardsEigenLayer Staking rewards

It’s more than a love letter, it’s a love action.
Goodbye, For Now

Okay, so you got your cheeto-laden fingers on some $KIM or $xKIM. And you wanna put it to work. Right?
Well, here’s a quick one to show you exactly how to get started.
The process is simple; Kim earns fees every time people swap (which is, like, a lot), those fees go to LPers and, of course, to the protocol. Since the launch of $KIM and $xKIM, that protocol is now, well, you (kinda). So you deserve those fees, anon.
Do note that if you got the airdrop, we gave you some $xKIM - so, should you desire, you can skip right to the Optimizing Yields section.
Staking Your $KIM

$Kim $xKim
Head on over to this page

#Kim #xKim
Enter the amount of $KIM tokens you wanna stake. In this case, 76.62 (i wanted to do 69 in hindsight but I’d already taken the screenshot). Hit “Approve”

If this is your first time staking $KIM, you’ll need to approve the spending cap. Hit Next -> Approve.

Okay, super easy, right? Now, hit “Convert”

#Metamask #Modenetwork
Confirm it in your nerdy little MetaMask wallet.

All done, anon. You’ve successfully staked your $KIM tokens.
Now the real fun begins.
Optimizing Protocol Yields with $xKIM
Okay NOW we can start having fun, anon. We can now allocate our sweet $xKIM to plugins and start optimizing yields throughout Kim.
We should say, of course, that this is just the beginning. The plethora of plugins that will adorn Kim, and the utility of your $xKIM, is just getting started. Expect more. Expect innovation. Expect an explosion of $xKIM utility.
Anyway, after that Ted Talk, let’s start earning protocol fees together:

Now, staying on this page, you can see I have a huge bag of $xKIM (ikr, tell ur gfs).
I’m gonna hit Stake inside the Rewards tab.

Next, I’ll hit Allocate, enter the amount of $xKIM I wanna allocate, and approve the transaction(s) in my MetaMask.
⚠️Remember, anon, if this is your first time staking $xKIM you will need to do two transactions since you gotta approve the spending limit with the contract first!

Okay, voila. EZPZ. Now I’m automatically earning a portion of the protocol earnings simply by staking my $xKIM tokens.
How easy was that?!
More Plugins. More Guides 🫡
Gg wp, anon. Yield booster going live very soon. kpNFTs you ask? Not much longer to wait.
Stake your $xKIM. Earn the fees. Earn the boosted rewards. Take your vitamins. Supplements. Eat raw meat. Or don’t, whatever.

They’ve arrived; $KIM & $xKIM are here 🎉

And one million (that’s six zeros) of them are set aside to provide boosted incentives for the KIM <> ETH pool.

The One Million $KIM Incentive Program
For this month we’re delivering 1,000,000 $KIM/$xKIM directly into the wallets of our users. Split into four weeks, the first week (as in, um, now) is as such:

You: Provide liquidity into the KIM <> ETH  or ETH<>USDC pool. Boost your yield by allocating your xKIM to the yield booster plugin.

Us: Rewarding 400,000 $KIM/xKIM to our community, pro rata, over the next 7 days at a ratio of 1:4 Kim:xKIM

Us: Distribute 400,000 $KIM/xKIM in LP rewards, pro rata, over the next 7 days at a ratio of 1:4 Kim:xKIM

Simple as that, anon.

Half of the incentives will be distributed via Merkl, so any amount of liquidity in the KIM <> ETH or ETH <> USDC pool will begin to earn Kim from the second you deploy. 

The other half of the rewards will only come from staking xKIM in the yield booster plugin and applying it to your position.

The remaining 600,000 KIM/xKIM is reserved for the rest of the month, so keep your eyes peeled for what’s to come. 
Leverage Your xKIM
Anon, you can choose to jeet your rewards, the token that powers the most rewarding DEX in Web3, or you can put our KIM to work through staking.

Head on over to this page, stake your KIM to receive xKIM (and begin earning protocol fees!), then put your xKIM to work by leveraging the yield booster - Boosting your staking yields by up to +100% by adding ›KIM to any eligible position.

Until Next Week 🫡
Keep building. More to come.
Follow us on X, join us on Discord, and stake your $KIM, $xKIM, and kpNFTs.

#ModeNetwork #Mode

Welp, points farmoooors. Here it is. Your lucky day.
$KIM is live. Trade it right now on Gate or, as you might expect, Kim.
Okay, so, um, What Next?
If you’re a lucky recipient of the airdrop you’ll be able to claim it directly from this link.
For those of you who won the Superchain One lottery and bought $KIM on the launchpad, you’ll be able to grab that here.
What Can I Do With $KIM?
Well, if it was a $200/h escort in Bangkok you could probably do a lot with Kim!
But, in this case, it’s the most powerful DeFi token on the Mode Network so instead of drugging you and stealing your watch, this $KIM will improve your financial opportunities on the Kim protocol.
Airdrop recipients will receive $KIM and $xKIM at a ratio of 3:7. AND YES, YOU CAN STAKE YOUR $KIM TO RECEIVE MORE $xKIM AND UNLOCK THE POWERS LISTED BELOW:
You put your $xKIM to work and start earning even more when using Kim Protocol.
Maximise your earnings with $xKIM. As soon as it’s landed in your wallet you’ll be able to stake both your $KIM (for $xKIM in return) and your $xKIM (for kpNFTs in return). Confusing kinda but totally worth it once you see the perks.
Consider this; you stake your $xKIM with a yield booster plugin. Now, you’ll be receiving 2x boost on your yield from your LP positions on Kim.
Further consider this; you stake your $xKIM then stake your kpNFTs to receive a 4x(!) yield on your LPs on Kim.
This is, of course, just the beginning. As more plugins are built into Kim protocol the utility of your $xKIM will expand. So keep an eye, anon.
I DIDN’T GET AN AIRDROP
Awwh, we can’t all be winners, anon.
Sybil has been mitigated and, don’t forget, just trading between ETH <> wETH didn’t count toward points.
BUT FRET NOT.
$KIM is listing right off of the bat on Gate (if you’re, um, into CEXs and all that). OR you can slurp it up right on launch over on Kim (duh).
So, No More Points?
No, anon. No more points.
Something far better.
Pool incentives will be converted directly to $KIM emissions, so no more waiting around and praying for TGE.
Oh, and let’s not forget that Kim, on our mission to becoming the most rewarding DEX in Web3, offers a tonne more beyond $KIM and points, including:
ETH rewards on selected pools, powered by MerklePartner points on selected poolsAirdrops of $MODEMode DevDrop NFTsFuture airdrops of dozens of partners, including OP, MoChad, and more
⚠️Alpha alert
In the future, you might just need to be staking a little $xKIM in order to qualify for our supercharged rewards.

#Mode #ModeNetwork #Optimism #tge

Hey, points holders, $KIM is coming soon.
That means $xKIM is coming soon.
That means kpNFTs are coming soon.
That means your yield on Kim is about to skyrocket 4x (and beyond).
Here is info on the upcoming TGE and a guide on why not to immediately jeet.
What’s the Plan?
Summary:
Everything goes live at 1PM UTC, May 6th.Airdrop Claim will be live.$Kim LP will be live.Gate  will be live.On this day, points holders will be able to claim $KIM and $xKIM on the claim site at a ratio of 7:3.Users without LP in Kim may not be eligible for the full airdrop amount.Any tokens forfeited, unclaimed, or un-eligible amount, will be reallocated for rewarding our loyal users. Stay tuned for our loyalty program.Kim points will be converted to $Kim & xKim tokens.As always, users who stick around will be rewarded more, thooner than you think.

If you’re not smart enough to understand ratios (likely if you’re in Web3), here’s an example.
You get a 100 $KIM/$xKIM airdrop.
7:3 ratio.
You’ll receive 70 $KIM and 30 $xKIM.
What Can I Do With My Airdrop?
You could, technically, just jeet it away and regret it further down the line.
OR
You put your $xKIM to work and start earning even more when using Kim Protocol.
Maximise your earnings with $xKIM. As soon as it’s landed in your wallet you’ll be able to stake both your $KIM (for $xKIM in return) and your $xKIM (for kpNFTs in return). Confusing kinda but totally worth it once you see the perks.
Consider this; you stake your $xKIM with a yield booster plugin. Now, you’ll be receiving 2x boost on your yield from your LP positions on Kim.
Further consider this; you stake your $xKIM then stake your kpNFTs to receive a 4x(!) yield on your LPs on Kim.
That’s, like, totally radical.
This is, of course, just the beginning. As more plugins are built into Kim protocol the utility of your $xKIM will expand. So keep an eye, anon.
Wake and Stake, Anon
No use in jeeting, anon. You’re missing precious yield. Think of the opportunities. There are so many arising every day. Good luck.

Okay, we’re gonna keep this short and sweet.
Kim wants ur ETH <> USDC LP.
You want a tonne of rewards to, potentially, convert to more ETH/USDC.
(Then you could even provide more ETH <> USDC LP?).
If that’s the case, follow along to be in with a chance to earn another slice of that sweet Mode DevDrop.
How To Feed Muh Familia, Ser
It’s super easy:
Be in the top 2,000 Kim Points LeaderboardProvide a minimum of $100 in new  LP to the ETH <> USDC pair on Kim.
So long as you’re in the top 2,000 on the leaderboard and provide new LP on the pool you’ll take home a chunk of the Mode DevDrop - that’s photons and orbs (whatever tf they are, but the folks from Mode said there’s alpha behind them and they have a TGE soon(™) so let’s see 🤷)).

⚠️Top tips for boosting ur points:
Invite ur friends with the Kim referral programmeProvide LP in any verified pool (keep an eye out for the ones with boosted points!)Swap verified tokens (wash trading doesn’t count btw)
Good Luck, Anon
It’s hard to fumble the bag on this one, anon.

Okay, liquid tokens aren’t actually gonna get you wet (get your head out the gutter).
BUT, they will unlock a whole new avenue for you to earn rewards with your crypto.
On Mode, Kim is leading the way in making sure you can get rewards on rewards on rewards… ad nauseum.
TF is a Liquid Staking Token?
If you don’t already know, you’re ngmi. But dw, we’ll teach you in just a few paragraphs.
There are two core types of liquid staking tokens. #LST s and #LRT s.
LST = Liquid staking token - You stake your #ethurum with a staking provider and, in return, they give you another token which is redeemable for your ETH.
That way you can continue to earn staking rewards of the protocol whilst freeing up liquidity to leverage opportunities in the DeFi ecosystems (ONLY KIM).
E.g - you deposit 1 ETH into ANKR, you’ll receive ankrETH which continues to earn the staking rewards from staking ETH whilst you have the liquidity in the form of the LST (ankrETH).
LRT = Liquid staking token - This is basically the same as LSTs but, in the majority of cases, they’ve restaked your ETH with #EigenLayer
TL;DR = LRT = double staked (kinda) = more rewards.
LSTs & LRTs on Kim
There are a tonne of LST and LRT opportunities on Kim. Let’s take a look at a few of them and what rewards you can snag.
Remember, 100% off the verified LPs on Kim award you 4x Mode points so you can slurp up some of that delicious $MODE when the TGE goes live (btw, Mode Foundation, WEN?!).
ETH-wrsETH
wrsETH from KelpDAO is a liquid restaking token. So, yep, that means you earn:
ETH staking rewards simply by holding wrsETHKelp miles (this is just a cool way of saying points)EigenLayer points, yep, just by hodling, if you provide LP on Kim you’l get…BOOSTED 2x Kelp milesBoosted Kim points4x Boosted Mode points
All the whilst retaining your EigenLayer points and base ETH rewards.
weETH.mode-ETH
weETH.mode from EtherFi - a wrapped version of eETH native to Mode - is another liquiid restaking token. Provide LP on Kim and snag:
4x Mode pointsBoosted Kim pointsETH staking rewardsEigenLayer staking rewards3x EtherFi pointsEigenLayer points
Like, jeez, if the list gets much longer the article will be 10,000 words.
ezETH-ETH
Next up, ezETH from Renzo. No, we will not talk about any token graphs here. It’s another liquid restaking token so that means a sh*t load of rewards. Let’s take a look:
4x #Mode pointsBoosted Kim pointsETH staking rewardsEigenLayer staking rewards4x ezPointsEigenLayer points
Are you getting the picture yet? LSTs/LRTs = reward printers with liquidity on Kim.
– These are, of course, just a handful of LSTs/LRTs on Kim, you can always leverage your:
pxETH from Dinero, STONE from Stakestone (kudos for not using something like stonETH when you named it, guys).
There are more en route! Kim is home to liquid staking tokens. We’re on a mission to becoming the deepest liquidity in the Superchain by providing the highest rewards. Gracias, Amigos Adios for now. Provide liquidity. Get rewarded.
Follow us on X, join us on Discord, and provide liquidity.

Warm bath, anyone? Jacuzzi? Hot tub?
All examples of hot pools, but none quite as hot as this pair of liquidity pools on Kim.
Yep, the ETH <> mBTC and ETH <> USDC pools are undergoing supercharged rewards.
But how, mr kim writer?!
We’ll show you exactly how:

Put the king and queen of crypto together in a warm liquidity pool on Kim and you’ll get:
Boosted Kim points4x Mode pointsFor every $100, one lottery ticket for the 2 ETH lotteryIf you’re a new LPer, then you’ll snag Mode DevDrop NFTs

LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You degenerates did it. The $KIM token sale on the Superchain One launchpad sold out under 18min***.***
Unbelievable.
Anyway, some tough news, Kim has decided to shutter our operations due to unforeseen circumstances. There will be no refunds. Thank you for all your support.
Oof, imagine the smell.
That couldn’t be further from the truth.
First, let’s take a look at what we’ve achieved:
What’s Been Cookin’ at Kim HQ
The chefs simply haven’t left the kitchen since Kim was born all those moons ago. Now, following our incredibly successful token sale on Superchain One, let’s take a look, in bullet-point, ADHD-friendly, format, at some of our highlights:
Raised $300k under 18m on S1Rocketed over $30m in TVLBecame the first project on Mode to distribute Mode’s DevDropBegan sequencer fee sharing of > 13 ETHJimmy, one of our interns, got PADI qualified so now he can SCUBA dive!Launched lotteries with ETH <> USDC and ETH <> mBTC poolsGiving out DevDrop #NFTs. Dropped points, on points, on points, with partnerships around the Web3 world such as Renzo, 3x EtherFi, and more!
And that’s just scratching the surface.
Kim on Superchain One
The $KIM token sale on S1 was a tremendous success. More than 10k of you expressed your interest in the token sale but, alas, only a mere 600 managed to run away with a token allocation.
If that was you, congratulations!
If not, our condolences.
For those of you with $KIM, staking will open up shortly and you’ll be able to convert your $KIM tokens to $xKIM and begin leveraging them throughout the ecosystem.
Read more about the power of $KIM here.
Wen Pools Wen Exchange Wen Airdrop Wen Wen Wen
Soon, anon, soon.
The $KIM token pools will open up on Kim (obviously) very shortly, you’ll be able to provide liquidity freely with rewards in $KIM tokens rather than measly points.
CEX listings are planned. More information on that shortly.
For those with points (kings/queens), your points will be converted to $KIM tokens in the near future. Keep an eye out for updates.
SO YES, you can still earn points and grow your share of the $KIM airdrop pie. It’s not too late, anon.
What’s Next?
Simple; keep on building to make Kim the most rewarding place to provide liquidity in the entire Superchain and, ultimately, Web3.
We’ll continue to close partnerships to bring better and optimised incentives to your liquidity and focus on bringing additional utility to $KIM with $xKIM plugins.
