Curve DEX protocol
Overview
The Curve DEX functions as the automated market maker within the broader Curve project, facilitating token swaps and liquidity provision. It operates alongside Llamalend, the platform's lending and borrowing service, and Curve's governance framework. The governance mechanism relies on a vote-escrow model: holders of the native CRV token can lock it to receive veCRV, granting them voting power over protocol decisions, including the allocation of exchange incentives. Curve's documentation divides its audience into three segments: users engaged in trading and liquidity provision, developers building integrations and interacting with APIs, and protocols aiming to connect with the ecosystem. This structure reflects the fact that a significant portion of Curve's trading volume originates from external protocols rather than its own interface.
Within The Counterparty graph, Curve DEX connects to 48 tracked entities, most strongly to Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base.
