Juiced operates on a hybrid governance model designed for speed and security. The Core Team acts as the Protocol Curator (managing risk and asset selection), while veJUICE holders act as Liquidity Allocators (determining incentive distribution).

​
The listing pipeline

The protocol utilizes a streamlined listing process to rapidly integrate high-quality assets. This ensures that only secure, oracle-compatible tokens are eligible for Juiced Vaults. Step 1: Asset Selection & Due Diligence The Juiced Core Team identifies potential assets for listing based on market demand, partnership opportunities, or inbound requests. Every asset undergoes a strict internal review process covering:
  • Security Verification: Review of token contract audits and permissions.
  • Oracle Compatibility: Confirmation of a reliable, high-frequency price feed required by the Vault Indexer.
  • Market Viability: Assessment of organic volume potential on the RiseX orderbook.
Step 2: Technical Deployment Upon approval, the Core Team executes the on-chain setup:
  • Vault Initialization: Deployment of the specific Maker Vault contract with parameters tuned for the asset’s volatility (Spread, Tick Size, Rebalance Threshold).
  • Gauge Integration: The new Vault is added to the Gauge Controller, making it eligible to receive votes and emissions.
Step 3: Market Activation Once deployed, the Vault is technically live on the interface. At this stage, it has 0 TVL and receives 0 Emissions. It enters the “Bootstrapping Phase,” waiting for governance support to attract liquidity.

​
Liquidity bootstrapping

While the Team decides which markets exist, $veJUICE holders determine how deep the liquidity becomes. This creates a competitive marketplace for emissions.
  1. Incentivization (Bribes): External projects or community members deposit incentives (Bribes) into the Bribe Marketplace linked to the new Vault to attract voter support.
  2. Gauge Voting: $veJUICE holders cast their votes for the new Gauge during the weekly Epoch. They are naturally incentivized to vote for pools offering the highest value (Fees + Bribes).
  3. Emission Direction: Based on the voting weight, the protocol directs a portion of the weekly $JUICE emission to the new Vault.
  4. Liquidity Injection: The high APR (derived from Emissions + Bribes) attracts Liquidity Providers. The Vault fills with capital and immediately begins quoting orders on RiseX.
