## Ideas

We’re excited to see what you could build and to get you started here’s some ideas:

* [Smart pool ideas](https://app.gitbook.com/@balancer/s/balancer/~/drafts/-MHuBkdyygP9En7KTcm4/guides/smart-pool-templates-gui)
* UI template for [liquidity bootstrapping pools](https://balancer.finance/2020/03/04/building-liquidity-into-token-distribution/) (inspiration from [Perp](https://medium.com/@perpetualprotocol/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-first-liquidity-bootstrapping-pool-lbp-60a61b368c82))
* Liquidity bootstrapping pool template with configurable curve
* Trading between a BPT and one of its underlying tokens (e.g. BTC++/WBTC)
* Smart pool with incentivized bonding curve "Loyalty Pools":
  * early LPs get more BPT per liquidity
  * LPs who withdraw later get more tokens per BPT.
* Other smart pools that use Balancer’s customizable weights and fees in interesting ways
* Balancer Pool DAO - BPT holders can vote on changing fees, etc
* Arbitrage using flashloans

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://balancer.gitbook.io/balancer/guides/hackathons/ideas.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
