# The Idea of Andre Cronje [The origin of our design with velodrome](https://andrecronje.medium.com/ve-3-3-ouroboros-part-2-fees-explored-c8e026841ae) When Solidly launched, it was the most innovative defi application at its time, and reached 2B$ TVL in almost no time. Poor execution afterwards leads to drop of hype and TVL, but the idea remains genuine and unique. [Velodrome Finance](https://velodrome.finance) team executed the idea incredibly well, and it's one of the main reasons we are **launching our liquidity on Velodrome**! With bribing instead of giving free tokens to liquidity providers, **increasing the farm APR** for our liquidity pair, and **staking on Velodrome, Sonne** looks to **grow liquidity** while **earning VELO**. 100% of the earned **VELO** will be **shared** with **Sonne stakers**. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
