Features of the Protocol
Arowana Protocol offers a stable and innovative financial ecosystem by tokenizing physical assets starting with gold and providing various decentralized finance (DeFi) services. The core features of the protocol are as follows:
1. Arowana Swap
- Functionality
- Arowana Swap is a decentralized exchange within the ecosystem that allows users to trade digital assets such as AGT, USDT, and ARW.
- Instead of using an order book, users exchange assets through a liquidity pool model.
- Liquidity Provider Incentives
- Liquidity providers earn revenue through trading fees and ARW token rewards.
- Market Stability
- The protocol maintains market stability by supporting multiple trading pairs and ensuring sufficient liquidity.
2. AGT Mint / Redeem
- AGT Overview
- AGT is a token that reflects the value of 1 gram of physical gold.
- Users can mint or redeem AGT based on their desired quantity.
- Minting
- Users can mint AGT by providing physical gold or stable assets like USDT.
- Arowana purchases and securely stores the equivalent amount of physical gold.
- Redemption
- When redeeming AGT, Arowana sells the corresponding physical gold and returns the original asset to the user.
3. Staking and Rewards
- ARW Token Staking
- Users can stake ARW tokens to earn rewards and support network participation.
- Reward Structure

4. Lending Protocol
