Dear Hydro Community,

As the last week of July comes to a close, we are excited to share the progress of our Hydro team. As always, we thank all of you for your support as we continue to grow.

This week, Hydro Protocol has announced three token use cases.

1. Reduced fees for HOT holders — Users who have at least 100 HOT tokens in their Ethereum wallet will receive a fee reduction on Hydro Relayers (such as DDEX).

2. Incentive mechanism — Market Maker rebate program will incentivize liquidity providers with HOT tokens.

3. Staking to Share liquidity with Hydro Relayers — Delta Relay is the second functional DEX on Hydro Protocol. By staking HOT tokens, Delta Relay will be able to share liquidity with other Hydro Relayers (currently DDEX).
