Recent News about Contango
EditContango is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that operates across multiple blockchain networks, aggregating liquidity from various money markets to offer traders up to 14x leverage. The platform automates looping strategies using flash loans, enabling traders to open positions efficiently. Contango builds perpetual futures (perps) by borrowing on money markets, swapping on spot markets, and lending back on money markets, ensuring minimal price impact and high liquidity. The funding rate on Contango is determined by the lending and borrowing rates of the underlying money markets, making it 20 times less volatile than competitors like dYdX. Traders also benefit from earning 100% of any rewards offered by the underlying money markets. Contango serves DeFi traders looking for leveraged trading opportunities with low volatility and high liquidity. The business model revolves around transaction fees and interest rate differentials.
