Oasis

Oasis Network is the leading privacy-enabled and scalable layer-1 blockchain network for transparent finance and a responsible data economy. It separates consensus and computation into two layers to achieve impressive scalability. Oasis also features instant finality, low gas fees, high throughput, privacy protection, and defense against MEV; therefore, it is ideal for DeFi! What’s more, Oasis Network exceeded 100 million in TVL in less than 12 hours from the <a href="https://yuzu-swap.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">YuzuSwap DEX</a> launch and provides a next-generation foundation for Web3 and power DeFi, making the platform a compelling option for developers and crypto enthusiasts.Now it’s the perfect time to explore DeFi on Oasis.

Creating your Oasis wallet gives access to features like staking, with benefits such as crypto rewards and control over your crypto.<h3 id="strong-transfer-rose-to-emerald-the-evm-compatible-paratime-strong">Transfer $ROSE to Emerald, the EVM Compatible ParaTime</h3>Oasis separates consensus and computation into two layers in order to achieve its scalability. This requires the consensus layer to be designed in a way that is as flexible and lightweight as possible which also makes it unable to support complex smart contracts. Instead, Smart Contract execution is completed in the Computation layer. This means that users must bridge their $ROSE tokens from the consensus layer to the computation layer to participate in DeFi, NFT marketplaces, and Gaming on the ParaTime. Follow this <a href="https://docs.oasis.dev/general/manage-tokens/how-to-transfer-rose-into-emerald-paratime/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">link</a> to learn how to transfer $ROSE to the Emerald Paratime. Transfer the $ROSE tokens from Emerald Paratime to your <a href="https://metamask.io/download/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metamask wallet</a> to access their use cases.<h3 id="strong-become-a-defi-user-on-oasis-network-strong">Become a DeFi User on Oasis Network</h3>With $ROSE tokens now in a Metamask wallet, users can use any of the following Oasis DeFi Dapps and start depositing liquidity to earn token rewards.YuzuSwap DEXUsers can participate in liquidity pools, swap, trade, and earn rewards with high APY in this exciting DEX that crossed $1B in trading volume in under a month.YuzuSwap comes with <a href="https://medium.com/oasis-protocol-project/defi-is-coming-to-oasis-introducing-yuzuswap-the-1st-decentralized-exchange-on-oasis-the-50k-68193e63f31f" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">features</a> like ‘trade once mine forever’ and an auto-buyback price support system. An advantage of YuzuSwap is that every trade users make in an incentivized pair continues to add rewards with every block (every 6 seconds) until users withdraw the TPST (trading pool share token) balance. The TPST balance resets to zero after withdrawal; it adds rewards after users start trading again.Start using<a href="https://yuzu-swap.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> YuzuSwap DEX.</a>Gemkeeper FinanceGemKeeper.finance is a community-focused Automated Market Maker (AMM) and DeFi platform built on Oasis’ Emerald Paratime. It allows users to execute token swaps, enter existing and create new liquidity pools. Gemkeeper exposes users to yield farming on Oasis using globally accepted crypto assets; users earn $BLING by staking their GemKeeper Liquidity Pool (GLP) tokens in the Gem Mine.Visit Gemkeeper Finance<a href="https://app.gemkeeper.finance/#/swap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> here</a>.Fountain ProtocolFountain Protocol — a first cross-chain lending platform powered by Oasis — enables users to experience high capital efficiency management of DeFi assets. The Fountain Lending Pool allows users to receive a high yield return with low gas fees through a smooth lending protocol where lending and borrowing are accessible to all.Learn more about this community-led protocol <a href="https://medium.com/oasis-protocol-project/fountain-protocol-launches-on-oasis-network-with-a-liquidity-mining-program-15f72f43ab5a" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>; and <a href="https://ftp.cash/dashboard/markets" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">how to earn yields</a> on Fountain Protocol.<h3 id="strong-bridging-tokens-from-different-blockchains-strong">Bridging Tokens from Different Blockchains</h3>Bridging allows users to move tokens across different chains; Oasis currently supports assets from <a href="https://portalbridge.com/#/transfer" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Wormhole</a>, <a href="https://cbridge.celer.network/#/transfer" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Celer</a>, and <a href="https://app.multichain.org/#/router" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Multichain</a> bridges within its ecosystem. The general bridging procedure involves the following steps:<ol><li>Network selection</li><li>Token selection (the token a user intends to bridge)</li><li>Entry of token amount a user wants to bridge</li><li>Confirmation and acceptance of the transaction</li></ol>The transaction involves paying gas fees for the chain of origin and the destination chain; therefore, users will need to have $ROSE in their wallet for gas fees. Bridging moves tokens from other chains to the Emerald ParaTime on Oasis.Oasis users can now use the Wormhole, Multichain or Celer Bridge to move tokenized assets from Ethereum, BSC, Solana, Terra, and Polygon seamlessly across blockchains. The move means users will find more utility for their tokens held in these blockchains.New Oasis users bridging USDC, BUSD, BNB, or LINK from Multichain or USDT from Wormhole can also use <a href="https://app.gemkeeper.finance/#/swap" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">GemKeeper’s faucet</a> to pay for their initial bridge fee and first transaction on Oasis. For more details on this please click <a href="https://app.gitbook.com/s/9uUFQ8EPsIgvjxduytLC/gem-keeper/faucet" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>.Note: When you bridge tokens through Wormhole, the origin token gets locked in a smart contract, and a new wormhole wrapped token gets minted on the target chain. You can swap those for other (native) coins on the target chain.Learn more about the Wormhole bridge and how to use it <a href="https://medium.com/oasis-protocol-project/oasis-protocol-to-launch-on-wormhole-network-following-freshly-announced-160m-defi-fund-bf1eeb525825" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>.
