What is Stargate Finance?
Stargate Finance (STG) is an omnichain-native asset bridge that was designed to solve the blockchain trilemma, which said that no blockchain could be decentralized, secure, and fast simultaneously.
It does this by simplifying cross-chain DeFi transactions that allow users to transfer and swap their assets between various blockchains, layer 2 networks, and dApps almost instantly.
Stargate users can also move their assets between different liquidity pools on various DeFi protocols and dApps.
The protocol supports transfers between eight chains: Ethereum, Avalanche, Polygon, Metis, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Fantom.
The platform also offers other features for profit:
- supplying liquidity pools
- staking assets
- farming tokens
The project’s token STG is available on centralized and decentralized exchanges.
