PERP

The goal of Perpetual Protocol is to create a perpetual contracts trading platform that anyone can use. To do that, users need to be able to trade with good liquidity and low slippage. Perpetual Protocol solves this by employing its vAMM solution. Perpetual Protocol doesn’t follow the usual order book model of centralized exchanges. Instead, traders trade against a virtual automated market maker, whose initial liquidity is set by the operator.

For instance, assume the operator sets the vAMM’s liquidity at 100 vETH to 40,000 vDAI. Someone depositing DAI to go long on ETH would tilt the price of ETH upwards and create an incentive to go short on vETH if the price is out of line with market prices. Traders going short on vETH would also deposit DAI as collateral and bring the price of vETH back to its equilibrium. Having liquidity swaps is unnecessary, as the vAMM functions as a tally of all trades and automatically finds an equilibrium in the long run. In practice, trades on Perpetual Protocol are all settled in USDC.

By using this vAMM model and building the exchange on xDai, traders are able to enjoy on-chain trading without fees and instant settlement. Furthermore, Perpetual Protocol supports gas-free deposits over 500 USDC, meaning traders are able to deposit with 0 ETH in their wallets.

The total supply of PERP is 150 million. The current circulating supply of PERP is 68.7 million. The token distribution is as follows:

7.5 % - Balancer Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP)

4.2 % - Seed investors, 20% unlocked on mainnet launch, 20% every three months

15% - Strategic investors, 20% unlocked on mainnet launch, 20% every three months

21% - Team & advisors, 2.1% per 3-month period beginning six months after mainnet launch

54.8% - Ecosystem & rewards, distribution of ecosystem rewards will be decided by the Perpetual Protocol community

PERP is a utility token that incentivizes and facilitates the decentralized governance of the protocol. The token feedback loop looks like this: Staking rewards & trading fee rewards increase > 2. PERP token value increases > 3. PERP token awareness increases > 4. Protocol awareness increases > 5. Trading volume increases > 6. Trading fees increase > Back to 1.

Perpetual Protocol has been audited by Consensys and Peckshield. The protocol is community-governed and has a bounty program for developers that find bugs in the smart contracts. The network is on xDai, while the PERP token is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum.

ERC-20 is a token standard most new tokens follow when publishing on the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum is one of the most popular blockchains for DAOs and is secured by a proof-of-work consensus mechanism that requires miners to mine new Ether. A set of decentralized nodes validates transactions and secures the Ethereum blockchain.

Perpetual Protocol uses Chainlink as oracle for funding rate calculations but does not have an on-chain oracle as a price engine to prevent the use of flash loans to manipulate the price of underlying assets and profit from Perpetual within the same transaction.
