## 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?

## What Is OpenOcean?

[OpenOcean](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/openocean/) is a [decentralized exchange](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/decentralized-exchange-dex) (DEX) aggregator. It sources liquidity from different [DeFi](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/defi) markets and facilitates [cross-chain](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/cross-chain) swaps. Thanks to its routing algorithm, the aggregator finds the most attractive prices from various exchanges and provides traders with low [slippage](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/slippage) and fast [settlement](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/settlement). Since the aggregator is free of charge, users only pay the gas and exchange fees on the respective blockchains, though nothing to OpenOcean itself.

The protocol collects data from major decentralized and [centralized exchanges](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/centralized-exchange-cex). It also sources liquidity from [Ethereum](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/) and [layer-two](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/layer-2) solutions like [Arbitrum](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-arbitrum-the-ultimate-guide-to-the-arbitrum-ecosystem) and [Optimism](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-is-optimism-the-ultimate-guide-to-the-optimism-ecosystem), as well as other blockchains like [BNB Chain](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/binance-coin/), [Polygon](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/polygon/), [Avalanche](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/avalanche/), [Solana](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/solana/), and others. The protocol continues expanding to other chains to meet the needs of its community. Users can place [limit orders](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/limit-order) and engage in [liquidity providing](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-provider-tokens-lp-tokens).

Moreover, it aggregates [derivative](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/derivative) products and aims to release its wealth management services. An API and [arbitrage](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/arbitrage) tools serve for automated trading strategies. The exchange’s vision is to build a crypto-only trading aggregator with increased capital efficiency, connecting the currently fragmented DeFi and CeFi markets. This shall allow each investor (despite their size or affiliation) to trade at the best prices and apply their investment strategies across the cryptocurrency markets. A future SaaS tool will provide automated arbitrage strategies and grid trading across centralized and decentralized exchanges to achieve that goal.

## What Is Orca?

Orca touts itself as the "easiest, fastest, and most user-friendly cryptocurrency exchange on the Solana blockchain." Being one of the first automated [market makers](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/what-are-automated-market-makers) (AMM) launched on [Solana](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/solana), the decentralized exchange (DEX) maintains its own [liquidity pools](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/liquidity-pool). It allows users to swap assets, participate in yield farming, and provide liquidity.

The platform leverages Solana’s quick transactions and low fees. On one hand, users can perform low-fee token trades. On the other, they can provide [concentrated liquidity](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/concentrated-liquidity) to the platform to earn a share of trading fees.

### Who Are the Founders of Orca?

Orca was co-founded by Grace Kwan and Yutaro Mori. Kwan, aka "Ori," is the UX designer. She graduated from Stanford with a B.S. and M.S. in Computer Science before working as a software engineer at Coursera and a designer at IDEO.

Yutaro is the brain behind Orca's core AMM. He has been active in the crypto space since 2017 at the Ethereum Foundation. He worked on the Eth2 Go client and Layer 2 solutions before making a foray into Solana.

### When Was Orca Launched?

The project launched in February 2021 without external funding. In September 2021, the [total value locked](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/total-value-locked-tvl) (TVL) on the protocol had exceeded $300 million, while its trade volume exceeded $700 million.

### Where Is Orca Located?

### Orca Restricted Countries

A "double-hop trade" such as SOL to USDT to ETH would pay 0.3% to trade SOL to USDT and another 0.3% to trade USDT to ETH.
