Bancor

Bancor

A hierachical monetary system

Website

The Bancor protocol is a standard that allows anyone to easily create completely liquid “smart tokens” that calculate their own prices & enable a single party to convert any token to another, without requiring a second party to exchange with. Thereby enabling the long-tail of completely liquid cryptocurrencies. Smart tokens hold other tokens in reserve, and can be used as decentralized token baskets (like ETFs), token changers (like shapeshift), project & protocol tokens (like GNT & REP), community currencies (like Ithacash & reward miles), and a lot of other use cases. The BANCOR network token will hold a single reserve in Ether. Other smart tokens, by using BANCOR as (one of) their reserve(s), connect to the BANCOR network. The BANCOR network token forms a monetary structure where increased demand for any of the network’s smart tokens drives up the value of the common BANCOR token, benefiting all other smart tokens holding it in reserve.


About Bancor

The Bancor protocol enables built-in price discovery and a liquidity mechanism for tokens on smart contract blockchains. These “smart tokens” hold one or more other tokens in reserve and enable any party to instantly purchase or liquidate the smart token in exchange for any of its reserve tokens, directly through the smart token’s contract, at a continuously calculated price, according to a formula which balances buy and sell volumes.

Continuous Liquidity

Smart tokens can be purchased or liquidated by anyone anytime, through their smart contract.

Backward Compatible

Bancor enables liquidity and asynchronous price discovery for any existing ERC20 standard token.

No Spread

Prices are calculated by the smart token so buys and sells use the same current price.

No Counterparty Risk

No need to deposit in an exchange in order to convert between smart tokens.

Lower Volatility

Reserves endow smart tokens with significant market depth, resulting in reduced price volatility.

Predictable Price Slippage

Price slippage is pre-calculated relative to transaction size and incorporated into current price.
