June saw the launch of new QuantAMM and Dynamic ECLP pools, a refreshed veBAL interface, and the first partners joined the Balancer Alliance.

Lido and Rocket Pool are the first official members of the new Balancer Alliance Program, a formal revenue-sharing framework designed to deepen collaboration with top DeFi protocols.

Both protocols qualify as their pools have generated over $1M in lifetime fees. As Alliance members, they’ll receive a portion of protocol fees in USDC, which must be relocked into veBAL, aligning long-term incentives.

Balancer unveiled a redesigned veBAL interface focused on ease of use and faster interaction. Users can now lock BAL, vote on pool gauges, and track incentives through a streamlined UI. Governance participation is now smoother, more intuitive, and optimized for action.

Two new pools using the QuantAMM architecture are now live and receiving incentives via Aura:

• Safe Haven Pool: PAXG, WBTC, USDC

• Base Macro Bull Pool: WETH, USDC, cbBTC, AERO

These structured products represent distinct thematic strategies, and exemplify the growing use of Balancer’s programmable liquidity for more complex financial products.

Dynamic ECLPs are now live - Gyroscope’s latest pool design built for volatile pairs and “set-and-forget” LP strategies. They integrate a dynamic rate provider that conditionally updates when the pool moves out of range, allowing it to track price without triggering new arbitrage losses. The design emphasizes wide ranges, high fees, and avoids costly asset rebalancing - aiming to replicate the success of earlier static CLPs.

Finally, three sessions from DappCon featured talks from key Balancer contributors.
