Stargate V1 Service Timeline and User Action Plan

Stargate has issued a crucial update regarding the phased retirement of its V1 service infrastructure, coinciding with LayerZero Labs' plans to sunset its V1 relay. It's important to note that Stargate V2 and Stargate Hydra continue to operate normally and are not subject to these changes.

Key Dates and Service Phases

The transition will occur in a structured two-phase process, requiring user attention at specific intervals.

Phase One: Temporary Service Pause

The Stargate V1 message service will be temporarily suspended for approximately two weeks. During this period, functionality for V1 pools will be unavailable.

Phase Two: Zero-Fee Withdrawal Window

Following the resumption of message services, withdrawal functionality for all Stargate V1 pools will be reinstated. To facilitate a smooth user migration, the platform will enable zero-fee withdrawals for all users during this period. This withdrawal window will remain open until the final shutdown date.

Final Shutdown and Required User Action

The definitive endpoint is set for December 15th, when the LayerZero Labs V1 relay will be permanently decommissioned. Consequently, all Stargate V1 pools will cease operations on this date.

This timeline imposes a critical action item for a specific group of users:

  • All users with active liquidity provider (LP) positions in Stargate V1 pools must remove these positions before December 15th.
  • Completing withdrawals prior to this deadline is essential to maintain access to funds.

This structured wind-down is designed to streamline the user experience for migrating from the legacy V1 system. Users are advised to monitor official announcements and plan their asset movements accordingly to ensure a seamless transition.
