📊 Your Python Code Reference

E-CLP (Elliptical Concentrated Liquidity Pool)

File: /home/jeffe/Github/myco-bonding-curve/src/primitives/elliptical_clp.py

Key insight: Production-grade math. Direct translation to Solidity needed.

Balancer V3 mapping: IBasePool interface (onSwap, computeInvariant, computeBalance)

Effort: 2 weeks (experienced Solidity dev)

P-AMM (Primary AMM / Redemption Curve)

File: /home/jeffe/Github/myco-bonding-curve/src/primitives/redemption_curve.py

Key insight: Pricing logic for bonding curves with circuit breakers. Works as Hooks pattern.

Balancer V3 mapping: IHooks interface (beforeSwap, afterSwap)

Effort: 1 week

Reserve Tranching (Multi-Vault Reserve Management)

File: /home/jeffe/Github/myco-bonding-curve/src/primitives/reserve_tranching.py

Key insight: Safety checks for multi-vault reserves. Works as validator hooks.

Balancer V3 mapping: IHooks interface (beforeAddLiquidity, beforeRemoveLiquidity)

Effort: 1.5 weeks

⏱️ Implementation Timeline

Phase Duration What Status
1. Proof of Concept Weeks 1-2 E-CLP to Solidity stub 📋 Planned
2. Custom Pool Integration Weeks 3-4 Factory, IBasePool impl, tests 📋 Planned
3. Hooks Integration Weeks 5-6 P-AMM hook, tranching validator 📋 Planned
4. Audit Prep Weeks 7-8 Docs, threat model, code audit 📋 Planned
5. Security Audit Weeks 9-10 External firm (Trail of Bits style) 📋 Planned
6. Testnet Weeks 11-12 Launch + community feedback 📋 Planned
7. Mainnet Weeks 13-16 Phased rollout (cap increases) 📋 Planned

Total: 16 weeks with 2-4 person team Critical Path: Solidity dev → All other tasks depend on E-CLP completion
