Curvance is a modular liquidity management protocol designed to optimize the use of yield-bearing assets and ERC-20 tokens. Curvance DeFi aims to be the "everything app" for lending and borrowing, designed to help address fragmentation across chains and protocols.

Why you should listen

Curvance is a chain-agnostic reward and utility layer for yield-bearing assets and other ERC-20 tokens. Initially to be launched on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Blast, Base, Optimism, and Polygon zkEVM, it aspires to establish itself as the de-facto reward and utility layer for any ERC-20 token.

Curvance as a protocol allows users to unlock further capital efficiency on yield-bearing assets. The vault technology's modular approach allows the support of nearly any ERC-20 token.

The goal of Curvance is to become DeFi's end-game and the de-facto "everything app" to facilitate user access to lending and yield generating protocols.

As DeFi continues its growth trajectory and more sophisticated yield-generating products are built upon existing DeFi infrastructure, the market size and prevalence of yield-bearing assets are expected to expand significantly.

In this evolving landscape, Curvance assumes a pivotal role, facilitating the continued growth of DeFi by empowering users to leverage their assets through borrowing, lending and staking protocols, thus amplifying their capital efficiency and opening doors to new opportunities.

A key component of this vision is Curvance's multichain strategy that enables Curvance to tap into different flywheels quickly. This removes one more step in the users journey, further simplifying the DeFi experience.

As a result, Curvance can provide services to a broader range of users and leverage the strengths of different yield-bearing asset protocols and markets, maximizing its revenue potential.

The goal is to become the top liquidity management layer for new crypto users and experienced DeFi veterans. This mission starts with supporting and integrating the biggest revenue generating protocols in DeFi, abstracting the complexity required to access these opportunities away from the user. Additionally, the multichain strategy enables Curvance to expand to emerging chains and protocol flywheels that are in demand easily.

The Curvance protocol capitalizes on the extensive composability of yield-bearing assets and ERC-20 tokens, allowing tokenized treasuries, tokenized NFT markets, and other primitives to be borrowed against in a decentralized peer-to-peer fashion. It will open a whole new world of capital efficiency and optimized yield.

On Curvance, users can access third-party protocols that facilitate earning a competitive Annual Percentage Rate (APR) on assets. Curvance unlocks additional utility and reward layers that can unlock liquidity by securing loans against user assets and in some cases earn CVE tokens via the Gauge System.

Hence, Curvance can be regarded as the final top layer for DeFi yield.

Upon beta, Curvance will be live on at least Ethereum, Arbitrum, Blast, Base, Optimism, and Polygon zkEVM. By being multichain from the start, Curvance places itself at the center of the multichain DeFi landscape and aligns itself with similar protocols.
