With many chains building as one, a new network structure is emerging to solve fragmentation in Ethereum. This network is modular, interoperable, and composable by default. We call it the Superchain: and it changes everything.
However, infrastructure alone is not enough. We need new ways to reward those who participate in this shared network. As such, we are experimenting with a different approach to incentivise interop ready TVL. This is in line with the S7 Intent: Interoperable cross chain TVL as the “Growth Campaign” in the Growth Projects list. This budget may be adjusted in line with program usage.
SuperStacks is an experiment in refining incentive design across the Superchain. The pilot will run from April 16 to June 30 and reward DeFi users with points for participating in liquidity pools focused on interoperable assets. Participants can earn points based on factors like liquidity provisioned, duration of participation, and other criteria designed to encourage sustained engagement.
The program will start with a set of designated pools across trusted protocols in the Superchain and will grow and change to include many others throughout. A list of participating pools and rewards structures is available on the SuperStacks program website.
This pilot gives us a unique chance to learn, adapt and ultimately build a more sustainable, aligned incentive program–one that can grow along the Superchain and help shape the future of onchain participation. It builds on everything we’ve learned from previous airdrops and other rewards programs, and starts building something even better. By mobilizing proactive, targeted incentives that support the kinds of liquidity and participation that will matter most when Superchain interoperability is fully live, SuperStacks lays the groundwork for a thriving, connected ecosystem.
If this program is successful, it could become a foundation for a long-term incentive program across the Superchain – helping applications grow, users stay engaged, and chains benefit from shared network effects. This experiment will help determine how to direct incentives effectively in the long run. We’re excited to learn, iterate, and build toward a resilient, high-impact Superchain.

As this is the first time we are running a program like this, there are bound to be learnings and improvements we can make. Please use this post thread to give feedback about the program, share sentiments you see across your communities and share your thoughts.
