Curve DAO Token

Curve is a decentralized exchange (DEX), which enables users and other decentralized protocols to exchange stablecoins (DAI to USDC, for example) with low fees and low slippage. Unlike exchanges that match a buyer with a seller, Curve is different. Like Uniswap, it uses liquidity pools, a mechanism where users can pool their assets to provide liquidity for traders. Users are incentivized to pool their assets and provide liquidity because Curve rewards them with the Curve DAO token.

The goal of the token is to incentivize liquidity providers on the Curve Finance platform, as well as getting as many users involved as possible in the governance of the protocol.

CRV, the native token of stablecoin lending platform CurveDAO, is close to all-time lows again as the ecosystem attempts a recovery from a large liquidation event this month. Blockchain tracking firm Lookonchain reports that a whale deposited over $6 million worth of CRV to Binance, presumably to sell at a loss.
