## What Is Curve Finance?

Curve Finance is a [decentralized](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized) [liquidity pool](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-pool) for [stablecoin](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/stablecoin) trading. Instead of an [order book](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/order-book), it uses an [AMM](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/automated-market-maker-amm) (automated market maker) model to match [liquidity](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity). As a decentralized and permissionless protocol, anyone can [provide](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-provider-tokens-lp-tokens) liquidity to one or more of the [liquidity pools](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-pool). The constant product formula of the AMM ensures maximum efficiency while incurring a minimum of [slippage](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/slippage) for traders. 

The Curve pools are [smart contracts](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/smart-contract) implementing the StableSwap invariant and enabling the exchange of two or more tokens. Token [swaps](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/token-swap) can be performed between paired stablecoins (Plain Pools) or between [wrapped](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-wrapped-ethereum-weth) tokens, with the underlying collateral lent out on another protocol (Lending Pools). Finally, Metapools pair stablecoins against LP-tokens from another pool.

The protocol is available multi-chain — on [Ethereum](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/), [Arbitrum](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-arbitrum-the-ultimate-guide-to-the-arbitrum-ecosystem), [Aurora](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/aurora-near/), [Avalanche](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/avalanche/), [Fantom](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/fantom/), [Harmony](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/harmony/), [Optimism](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-optimism-the-ultimate-guide-to-the-optimism-ecosystem), [Polygon](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/polygon/), [xDai](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xdai/) and [Moonbeam](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/moonbeam/). Users typically have to [bridge](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/bridges) funds from Ethereum to these chains to use the Curve protocol. Due to its systemic importance for [decentralized finance](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/defi) (DeFi), the protocol has attracted several other protocols fighting over its [governance](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/governance) in the so-called [Curve Wars](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/curve-wars-and-the-emergency-dao). 


## Who Is the Curve Finance Founder?

Curve Finance was founded by Michael Egorov, the former co-founder and CTO of NuCypher, a cryptocurrency infrastructure protocol. He also founded LoanCoin, a decentralized bank and loans network. Before his work in the cryptocurrency industry, Egorov studied at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and the Swinburne University of Technology. 


## When Did Curve Finance Launch?

Curve Finance was launched in June 2020, amidst the so-called DeFi Summer, and is considered one of the core building blocks of the nascent [DeFi](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/defi) sector.


## Where Is Curve Finance Located?

According to CBInsights, Curve Finance has its headquarters in Switzerland.  

 


## Curve Finance Restricted Countries

At the time of writing, there is no information about possible restricted countries. However, users from countries under US financial sanctions may be subject to geoblocking. 


## Curve Finance Supported Coins List 

The exchange supports liquidity pools for major stablecoins like [DAI](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/multi-collateral-dai/), [USDC](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/usd-coin/), [USDT](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/), [FRAX](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/frax/) and [TUSD](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/trueusd/). It also offers swaps between wrapped tokens like [wBTC](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/wrapped-bitcoin/), [wETH](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/weth/) and [stETH](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steth/) (a derivative of staked Ether native to [Lido](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/lido-dao/)). 


## How Much Are Curve Finance Fees?

According to the protocol, the standard fee on all pools is 0.04%. Half of the fee goes to liquidity providers, the other half to veCRV holders. veCRV holders receive enhanced governance rights in return for [staking](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/staking) their tokens for fixed periods of time. 


## Is It Possible To Use Leverage or Margin Trade on Curve Finance?

This exchange offers only token swaps and thus does not have leverage or margin trading.

Meteora DAMM v2

Blackhole is a next-generation decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the Avalanche C-Chain, optimized for deep liquidity, sustainable emissions, and long-term incentive alignment across the DeFi ecosystem. At its core, Blackhole leverages an enhanced ve(3,3) tokenomics model, combining dynamic governance, emissions-based rewards, and advanced automated market maker (AMM) infrastructure to deliver capital-efficient liquidity solutions.

The native token of the protocol, $BLACK, is used for:
Emission rewards to liquidity providers

Locking into veNFTs to gain governance rights and rewards

Staking to earn protocol revenue and bribes

Perma-locking to mint special Supermassive veNFTs with non-decaying power


Blackhole’s unique two-tier governance system revolves around veBLACK vote-escrowed NFTs minted by locking $BLACK tokens. Users can choose between two types:
- Singularity veNFT: Users lock $BLACK for up to 4 years to earn veBLACK, gaining proportional voting power and protocol revenue.

- Supermassive veNFT: Created by permanently burning $BLACK tokens. These NFTs receive enhanced rewards, non-decaying voting power, and a 10% rebase bonus. All team tokens are burned into Supermassive veNFTs, eliminating future sell pressure.


How Does Blackhole Work?
Blackhole’s incentive engine operates in epochs. Each week, veNFT holders vote on “gauges” that determine which liquidity pools receive $BLACK emissions. In return, voters earn:
A share of trading fees from voted pools

100% of bribes and partner incentives from those pools

Rebase rewards based on emission dynamics

The protocol features variable AMMs for volatile assets, stable AMMs for correlated pairs like stablecoins, and concentrated liquidity pools for precision market-making. LPs can earn higher fees by focusing capital around price ranges and staking to access emissions.
New projects can launch liquidity via Genesis Pools, a capital-efficient bootstrapping system with fixed price contributions and auto-staking. Genesis participants earn LP tokens and start receiving emissions from epoch one.

What Makes Blackhole Unique?
Dual veNFT system: Long-term governance through both flexible and permanent locks

Dynamic emissions model: Four emission phases—early growth, inflation control, and a governance-driven terminal phase called “Hawking Radiation”

Protocol alignment: All team tokens permanently burned into Supermassive veNFTs

Revenue streams: Voters earn from trading fees, bribes, and rebases

Advanced AMM design: Modular, concentrated liquidity architecture powered by Algebra Integral

Permissionless launches: Any project can bootstrap deep liquidity via Genesis Pools
