# 2.8 - Egg Initiative

<figure><img src="/files/30f9c1184e821c8ca213065876911c531f440b8e" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The **Egg Initiative** is nest's early adopter program, designed to bootstrap liquidity and governance participation at launch. A structured way to help HyperEVM projects launch, deepen liquidity, and align with nest deepening the partnership.

A pool doesn’t create a market. **Liquidity creates a market.** The egg initiative exists to make sure the liquidity is there, sustained, and aligned with the “HYPE Must Grow” thesis, not mercenary points farming.

***

### Who's it for

* **Builders** launching assets on HyperEVM who want real markets, not thin pools
* **Protocols** that want liquidity where it matters (tight routing, stable quote depth)
* **Communities** who want sustainable execution and long-term holders

***

### How it works

The Egg Initiative's goal is simple: **get the market liquid, keep it liquid, and make it tradable at size.** is powered by the same weekly system that makes Nest a MetaDEX:

{% step %} <mark style="color:$info;">**STEP 1 - JOIN**</mark>

**Partners join the Egg Initiative.** They can earn NEST, lock it for veNEST, and earn 100% of the fees their pools generate — immediately aligned with protocol growth.
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <mark style="color:$info;">**STEP 2 -  CO-ORDINATE INCENTIVES**</mark>&#x20;

**Emissions and bribes work together.** Emissions can be directed via veNEST vote weight. Partner bribes/incentives can be added to compete for votes,stacking reward streams for LPs in target pools.
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <mark style="color:$info;">**STEP 3 - DEEPEN WHERE IT'S PRODUCTIVE**</mark>

**Liquidity concentrates where it reduces slippage and supports real volume.** Not spread thin, not farming vanity TVL — targeted depth at the pairs that matter.
{% endstep %}

{% step %} <mark style="color:$info;">**STEP 4 - ITERATE EACH EPOCH**</mark>

**Markets aren't set once, they're shaped weekly.** As volume and liquidity mature, incentives adjust to keep the market efficient without wasting emissions.
