Proteus are submitting a proposal to our community to launch on Atlo. To participate in voting on their proposal and (if they are successful) buying tokens in their sale, you’ll need to get an Atlo Rating. If you don’t know what that is, read this.

You don’t have to be tech-savvy, or take extraordinary risks, to access the benefits of DeFi. Proteus Finance aims to eliminate barriers to entry and reduce the risks associated with crypto investments.

The Medium Post gives an overview of Proteus. If you prefer to learn visually, here’s a great video from Crypto with Rico.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Proteus is an asset management and yield creation service for cryptocurrency.

They have teamed Up with Aperture Finance and their Delta Neutral investment strategy. Their goal is to make yield generation easy and simple for everyone. And they don’t stop at the generation of yield, but include the spending of that yield in their plan.

Proteus aims to develop an AI-driven engine that automatically searches for the best yields in the Terra ecosystem vaults for you and invests on your behalf. It will quickly switch investors out of low-performing protocols.

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

Listen to Lukas chat to Breevie on the Mighty Whale Podcast about how Proteus makes DeFi easy for everyone.

TYPES OF TOKEN HOLDERS

Straight from their Whitepaper (Page 27):

We envisage three types of token holders

  1. Users of the Proteus ecosystem : who fully participate in the Proteus ecosystem
  2. Investors and speculators : who buy the token in the open market to hold it to make a profit from its increase in value.
  3. Stakers : who buy the tokens or who use the excess from their current holding to stake Proteus.

STAKER BENEFITS

  • Participate in Launchpad (for new tokens on the Terra ecosystem)
  • Reduce transaction fees if using our tokens
  • Be part of a tier system — receiving additional % for staking our token
