I’m not sure I love this idea. I do agree that down the line, being on Uniswap is something worth considering, but Alchemix is less than two weeks old, and not showing loyalty to SushiSwap this early on is disagreeable to me—especially since they were helpful to us at our very beginning. Along with this, splitting the rewards among pools would hurt the OGs who got in on the Sushi LP since day one and who have been reked with IL. Those rewards are making the IL worth it. Cutting their rewards and asking them to pay fees to migrate to get those rewards back also seems a bit disloyal.
I understand wanting to reach a wider audience, but this would split our liquidity. And if the only thing stopping someone from investing in ALCX is that it’s not on Uniswap, or that they didn’t do enough research to realize that we do have a very liquid token, then I’m not sure that’s an audience worth being disloyal for. Especially with a protocol that is built on top of so many others and relies on many others, I think loyalty and making friends/partnerships (as cliché as that sounds) is worth its weight in gold. I’m sure Sushi knows that at some point they won’t be our only DEX, but until that’s closer to a necessity or something that would bring a substantial amount of value that would otherwise be missing, I don’t see this as being worth it. To be honest, I’m not sold on it having many tangible benefits. If you are a serious DeFi investor, a token not being on Uniswap isn’t going to deter you from buying into something you believe in. I’m actually in favor of being ignored by people who are just looking for the hot new token.
