Proton Swap
Proton Swap is an official Proton dApp (Decentralized Application) providing DeFI (Decentralized Finance) features to Proton users. It consists of four parts:

  • Swap (Decentralized Exchange for exchanging one cryptocurrency for another fast and secure)
  • Pools (Provide DEX with liquidity and enable liquidity providers to earn returns from swap fees)
  • Farms (Helps liquidity providers to earn high APY to attract more liquidity to the DEX)
  • Bridge (Connects Proton with other blockchains allowing to deposit, wrap and withdraw other cryptos)
  • Fiat-on-Ramp (Buy crypto with your bank account - for verified users only)
Proton Swap
Proton Loan
Proton Loan is a non-custodial decentralized lending protocol powered by the Proton blockchain.

There are two parties:
  • Lenders who deposit liquidity and earn APY.
  • Borrowers who take collateralized loans and pay interest.

With competitive rates for lending crypto and attractive rates for borrowing, Proton Loan stands out compared to other TradFi and DeFi options.

Also, a distinctive feature of Proton Loan is its multi-currency abilities, thanks to Proton wrapped tokens technology. You can loan and borrow blue-chip cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, DOGE, USDT and USDC stable coins, etc.

And, of course, all other benefits of Proton may be projected to Proton Loan, like instant transactions, zero commissions, and the easy-to-use WebAuth.com wallet.

For developers

Web3 SDKs for writing and interacting with Proton smart contracts.

Developer documentation
Proton is built over the widespread EOSIO technology, so you can quickly start developing for Proton if you are familiar with it. If not, it's not a problem with the new ability to write smart contracts using AssemblyScript and with the help of brilliant documentation.

  • Proton smart contracts compile to WASM for maximum performance at 4000 TPS.
  • Its similarity with TypeScript makes it easy to compile to WebAssembly without learning a new language.
  • Integrates with the existing Web ecosystem - no heavy toolchains to set up. Simply npm install it!

Developer grants
The Proton Worker Proposal System (PWPS) is an amazing opportunity to get funding to build a project that uses or promotes the Proton blockchain. Proton is the most consumer-friendly blockchain to build on and we want you to help us make it even better.

The WPS is a funding mechanism for the Proton, enabling developers and other value creators to request funds from the Proton blockchain for their projects outside of Proton block rewards.
