Token Listings

As a permissionless protocol, any IBC-enabled asset may be transferred onto the Osmosis chain, however a few steps are needed to list a token on the Osmosis.zone front end. Here are some of the newest listings.

Latest Listings

  • IBCX: An index token representing a basket of Cosmos ecosystem assets
  • ARB: The “governance” token of Arbitrum, an optimistic rollup scaling Ethereum
  • FIL: native token of Filecoin, a decentralized storage network based on IPFS
  • FLIX: the native staking token of OmniFlix Hub
  • NCT: Carbon credit-backed tokens from Regen

Liquidity Pool Incentives

Liquidity pool incentives are rewards for bonding liquidity into specific liquidity pools on Osmosis. Incentives must be approved by a governance vote. Incentives, as well as staking rewards, are released every day at roughly 17:30 UTC.

New Incentives

Superfluid Staking

Superfluid staking (SFS) allows users to stake their bonded LP tokens. This option is available for OSMO pools that are bonded for 14 days. For more info, check out What is Superfluid Staking?
