Frax Protocol is a DeFi protocol on Ethereum that introduces the first partially collateralized and partially algorithmic stablecoin. Its goal is to create a new type of cryptocurrency that is decentralized, scalable, and managed by algorithms to replace digital assets with fixed supply. The team behind Frax believes that such cryptos have better efficiency and is proud that their stablecoin is the only algorithmic stablecoin to have never lost peg.
The FRAX stablecoin of Frax Protocol currently exists on 7 chains, namely Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Fantom, Harmony, and Moonriver.
Frax Protocol was founded in 2019 by Sam Kazemian, Jason Huan, and Travis Moore.
Frax operates with two tokens: the fractionally-algorithmic stablecoin FRAX and the governance token FXS (FRAX Shares). The collateral ratio, price, and supply of FRAX, as well as the price and supply of FXS intricately influence one another, and they all are adjusted dynamically using algorithms. The time-weighted average of Uniswap pair price and the ETHUSD Chainlink Oracle are also variables that play a part in determining the price and collateral of FRAX. These sophisticated mechanisms allow FRAX to stay on peg and they can be modified through governance.
The hard cap on supply of FXS is 100 million, and the circulating supply is 16.2 million.
