Folks Finance and Liquid Governance
Folks Finance is a DeFi protocol that provides advanced, non-custodial DeFi tools for managing digital assets. Users looking for an all-in-one place to hold, manage, trade, and make high interest on their crypto can now fulfill their needs in a fast, affordable, and permissionless manner on Folks Finance.
Why Liquid Governance?
Liquid Governance is a liquid-staking product developed by Folks Finance to let users take advantage of Algorand governance while keeping their asset value liquid. This is achieved through the minting of gALGO, distributed 1:1 for each ALGO committed to Liquid Governance. While your ALGO remains in Folks Finance’s smart contracts, your gALGO is able to be traded, spent, or staked around the ecosystem.
Being the most effective and popular DeFi strategy on Algorand, Algo Liquid Governance built by Folks Finance is now open for users to deposit! The governance APR on Folks Finance can reach up to 15-16%, dwarfing the APR from traditional Algorand Governance, which usually lands around 6%
