What is Smoothy.Finance?

DeFi’s explosive growth has spawned the creation of several anchor coins on the Ethereum Network such as BTC, USDT, and GOLD. At present, over 20 anchor tokens exist — all backed by similar assets.

As DeFi becomes mainstream, more anchor tokens will be thrown into the mix. The swap ratio between anchor tokens should theoretically be 1:1, but current Ethereum-based DEXs aren’t designed for stablecoin swaps, which means users shoulder unnecessarily high gas and slippage costs.

Smoothy.Finance overcomes these hurdles by being a novel stablecoin swapping protocol for same backed assets, providing users a more affordable, single pool swapping alternative.

Though deployed on Ethereum, the gas fee required to swap stablecoins on Smoothy is reduced by 90% compared to Curve’s yPool and mStable. Smoothy achieves low gas fees through algorithm optimization and ensures composability by not using a layer-2 solution.

The Smoothy protocol is also capable of supporting 100+ stable coins — compared to Curve’s 4 — while providing low-cost-low-slippage swapping and the highest interest rates for liquidity providers (LPs). What’s more, there is no ‘lock up’ time for assets and LPs can withdraw liquidity anytime.

How It Works

Smoothy.Finance’s reserve bank system is designed with a unique Dynamic Cash Reserve Algorithm, which actively allocates the majority of funds in the underlying interest-earning platform, while the rest is reserved to meet daily swap needs. In other words, in addition to governance token earnings, liquidity providers can gain swap fees together with interest earnings and lower gas fees.

Smoothy.Finance ensures low-cost-zero-slippage with an algorithm that guarantees a 1:1 ratio swap most of the time. If not, the swap still goes through by imposing a low penalty fee that acts as slippage.

Liquidity providers (LP) can gain income from 3 features of the Smoothy platform. This is what Smoothy calls the LP reward. The LP reward is taken from the swap fee combined with the slippage fees, and interest from the Smoothy.Finance Vault**. The income from these 3 sources will be reflected in the Liquidity Provider token called syUSD.

**90% of funds in the pool will be deposited into Vault’s like Yearn and Venus to generate interest at about 10%~20% APY. The interest earned is the same for every stablecoin that LPs add to the pool.

*** $SMTY is the governance token of Smoothy
