Ferro Protocol

What is Ferro Protocol (FER)?

Built on the Cronos blockchain, Ferro Protocol is a StableSwap AMM protocol that brings a more efficient way for users to exchange and farm tokens by creating more efficient pools consisting of highly correlated assets, as well as allowing better composability between protocols in the Cronos ecosystem. Compared to other DEXes, some of the advantages of Ferro Protocol are:

• Lower fees — Due to gas usage &traffic efficiency of the token swap/exchange mechanism versus normal DEX
• Lower slippages — Highly correlated assets reduce price divergence within tokens of the same pool
• Limited to no impermanent loss — Highly correlated assets reduce overall market exposures of the pools
• More utilization of pools — Highly correlated assets allow for more utilization, providing opportunities to benefit by deploying pools into other DeFi protocols.

Ferro Protocol offers two main features:

1. Ferro Swap
   Users can exchange one token with another as long as both tokens are available in any of the pools within the protocol. You can also customize your token exchange by specifying allowable Slippage in %.

2. Liquidity Pools
   Apart from swapping, users can become liquidity providers and earn incentives by staking their LP tokens into the liquidity farm. You will be rewarded with our native tokens $FER together with the opportunity to lock your tokens with different maturity options to boost your returns.

The typical liquidity pools in Ferro Protocol will also carry a mechanism to incentivize/disincentivize users to LP a particular token through Deposit Bonus and Withdrawal Penalty, in order to balance the proportion of tokens in the pool.
