Our vision
The core value of DeFi is to build an access to a financial system free from:
censorship and invasion of privacy
opacity and dishonesty
manipulation from well-established institutions
All of these vices often rhyme with centralized power.
One way to fight against centralization of power is to totally change our current financial system, this can be achieved by properly using DeFi. Nonetheless, DeFi is far from perfect and using it has its downfalls.
CarboSwap tries to make DeFi as competitive as TradFi with the help of innovative features.
Why Aptos ?
In the past couple of years, blockchain has changed a lot. Gas fees decreased significantly, transaction limits rose substantially and networks have become a lot more efficient. Yet, the Blockchain Trilemma remains unsolved (scalability, security and decentralization). DeFi ecosystem still suffers from significant chain outages, major security vulnerabilities, as well as undelivered promises on speed & efficiency.
Aptos is a brand new blockchain built by highly-skilled Meta engineers who have been working on a chain called Novi (later called Diem) for the past six years. This chain is built by a large team of engineers who have years of experience building blockchain technology in one of the world's most prestigious technology companies.
Additionally, Aptos is built with the Move programming language. This is a significant improvement over Rust when it comes to smart contract development. In a time when security vulnerabilities exploits are taking place almost everyday in DeFi, Move offers a safe, efficient and secure environment for protecting scarce assets and is gaining popularity among the developer community.
Lastly, the immense growth in strong builders and the overall Aptos ecosystem is a testament to the team's unmatched business development skills.
