New Listings: AAVE, CRV, GALA & SUSHI

Our team considered pulling a double or triple whammy with today’s asset listing, but we just couldn’t decide on which assets to add to the platform, so we added four assets instead. Does that count as a quadruple whammy? We don’t know… Anyway, Aave, SushiSwap, Gala Games and Curve’s native tokens are now on Nexo. Enjoy the new DeFi energy on the platform!

About Aave

Aave is a household name in the DeFi industry. As an open-source, non-custodial liquidity protocol, Aave enables users to earn interest and borrow assets. The platform was originally known as ETHLend which launched in 2017 before rebranding to Aave (which means “ghost” in Finnish). The AAVE token provides holders with discounted fees on the platform while also serving as a governance token.

About Curve

Launched in January 2020, Curve is a decentralized exchange for stablecoins that manages liquidity via an automated market maker (AMM). This protocol is a well-known player in DeFi, especially following its impressive growth in the second half of 2020. Since then in mid-2021, Curve launched its DAO which connects smart contracts for users’ deposited liquidity, along with its native CRV token.

About Gala Games

Gala Games is the GameFi enterprise that aims to make decentralized gaming more engaging by giving players control of the games and in-game assets through blockchain technology. The in-game non-fungible tokens (NFTs) provide players with influence in the governance of games within the Gala Games ecosystem in addition to providing voting power over what games Gala should develop. Gala Games operates and thrives through its in-house utility token GALA. Since launching in 2019, the ecosystem has grown to 1.3 million monthly active users, having released Town Star and an NFT collectible series (VOX).

About SushiSwap

SushiSwap is an automated market maker (AMM) – a decentralized exchange that uses smart contracts to create markets for all sorts of token pairs. SushiSwap launched in September 2020 and is a result of a Uniswap fork. SushiSwap’s goal is to diversify the AMM market while adding innovative new features that have not yet been explored in the DeFi space. SushiSwap’s native token, the SUSHI, gives its holders control over the protocol via governance rights and pays them a portion of fees.
