Balancer on the EVM

balancer

Balancer is an automated portfolio manager, liquidity provider, and price sensor.

Balancer turns the concept of an index fund on its head: instead of a paying fees to portfolio managers to rebalance your portfolio, you collect fees from traders, who rebalance your portfolio by following arbitrage opportunities.

Balancer is based on an N-dimensional invariant surface which is a generalization of the constant product formula described by Vitalik Buterin and proven viable by the popular Uniswap dapp.

🍂 Bronze Release 🍂

The 🍂Bronze Release🍂 is the first of 3 planned releases of the Balancer Protocol. Bronze emphasizes code clarity for audit and verification, and does not go to great lengths to optimize for gas.

The ❄️Silver Release❄️ will bring many gas optimizations and architecture changes that will reduce transaction overhead and enable more flexibility for managed pools.

The ☀️Golden Release☀️ will introduce a curious new liquidity mechanism to the market.
