The Liquidity & Yield Engine of the TEPO Ecosystem


What Is TEMTHERA?

TEMTHERA is a decentralized exchange built on Tempo L1 that focuses on stablecoins and low-volatility assets. Its purpose is simple: make stablecoin swaps fast, efficient, and low-cost while creating sustainable yield opportunities for users. Instead of chasing hype or volatile trading pairs, TEMTHERA is designed around stability, real usage, and long-term value. It supports Tempo’s vision as a payments-focused blockchain by providing reliable liquidity infrastructure that users and protocols can depend on.


Q1 Testnet Access

A dedicated TEMTHERA Testnet will take place in Q1.

Access to the testnet will be exclusive to TEPO PASS holders.

This phase will allow early participants to:

  • Test core swap functionality

  • Provide liquidity in simulated environments

  • Interact with vault systems

  • Submit structured feedback before mainnet deployment

The testnet ensures that TEMTHERA launches with validated mechanics, refined parameters, and strong community alignment.


Purpose of TEMTHERA

TEMTHERA exists to:

  • Provide deep and efficient stablecoin liquidity

  • Generate sustainable yield for liquidity providers and NFT holders

  • Act as a primary revenue engine of the TEPO ecosystem

  • Support and strengthen the value of $TEPO through real on-chain activity

TEMTHERA is where capital remains productive without unnecessary exposure to volatility.


Core Philosophy

Stable assets. Real yield. Sustainable incentives.

TEMTHERA is designed for:

  • Traders seeking low-slippage stable swaps

  • Liquidity providers seeking predictable returns

  • NFT holders seeking boosted DeFi access

  • Protocols and treasuries requiring reliable stablecoin liquidity

All mechanisms are structured around long-term sustainability rather than short-term emissions.


How TEMTHERA Works

TEMTHERA is a stable-focused Automated Market Maker (AMM) that interfaces with Tempo’s native stablecoin DEX infrastructure.

On top of this foundation, TEMTHERA introduces:

  • Incentive layers powered by $TEPO

  • NFT-based yield boosts

  • Governance and treasury integrations

Together, it operates as:

  • A liquidity hub for stablecoins

  • A yield distribution engine

  • A value-capture layer for $TEPO

  • A utility gateway for TEPO NFTs


Supported Liquidity Pools

Stable ↔ Stable Pools

Examples:

  • USDC / USDT

  • USDC / DAI

  • Other Tempo-native stable assets

Benefits:

  • Ultra-low slippage

  • High capital efficiency

  • Suitable for payments, arbitrage, and treasury management

These pools prioritize safety and stability.


Stable ↔ $TEPO Pools

Examples:

  • USDC / $TEPO

  • USDT / $TEPO

Benefits:

  • Provides deep liquidity for $TEPO

  • Anchors $TEPO to stable value

  • Enables ecosystem incentives and reward emissions

These pools balance liquidity growth and ecosystem sustainability.


How Yield Is Generated

Liquidity Providers (LPs) earn from multiple yield layers.

Trading Fees

Every swap generates trading fees:

  • Optimized for stablecoin pairs

  • Dynamic fee model based on volume and conditions

Fees are distributed directly to LPs.


$TEPO Liquidity Incentives

LPs receive additional $TEPO rewards based on:

  • Pool type

  • Duration of liquidity provision

  • Whether the LP holds a TEPO NFT

The system rewards long-term liquidity participation rather than short-term capital rotation.


NFT Yield Boosts

Holding a TEPO NFT increases LP rewards.

NFTs function as financial access assets within TEMTHERA, providing tangible utility beyond collectibility.


Impermanent Loss Mitigation

Because TEMTHERA focuses primarily on stablecoin pairs, impermanent loss exposure is naturally minimized.

Additional design considerations include:

  • Concentrated liquidity ranges

  • Stable-only pools for conservative strategies

  • Optional auto-compounding mechanisms

This makes TEMTHERA suitable for both new and experienced DeFi participants.


Smart Vaults (Auto-Compounding)

TEMTHERA integrates with TEPO Smart Vaults for passive participation.

Smart Vaults:

  • Automatically reinvest LP rewards

  • Allocate capital to optimized pools

  • Distribute returns in stablecoins and $TEPO

NFT Holder Advantages:

  • Reduced performance fees

  • Enhanced vault APY

Vaults enable yield generation without active position management.


Governance Powered by $TEPO

Key TEMTHERA parameters are governed by $TEPO holders, including:

  • Fee structures

  • Reward emissions

  • Pool listings

  • Vault strategies

Long-term staking increases governance weight, ensuring decisions reflect committed ecosystem participants.


Ecosystem Revenue Loop

TEMTHERA contributes directly to the broader TEPO ecosystem.

Fee Flow Structure:

  • Trading fees → Liquidity Providers

  • Protocol fees → TEPO Treasury

  • Treasury allocation → Stablecoin rewards and potential $TEPO buybacks

This structure creates a sustainable economic loop that supports users, NFT holders, and protocol expansion.


Role of TEMTHERA in the TEPO Ecosystem

TEMTHERA serves as:

  • The liquidity backbone of TEPO

  • A stablecoin-focused yield engine

  • A value capture mechanism for $TEPO

  • A utility infrastructure layer for TEPO NFTs

It transforms token participation and NFT ownership into productive financial activity within the ecosystem.
