How To Use Penguin Finance: A Step-by-step Guide
Penguin Finance Overview
Penguin Finance is a DeFi project developed based on the Avalanche C - Chain network. In the early stage, the development team focused mainly on Yield Farming products based on Pangolin’s liquidity pool, one of the first Avalanche-based AMM DEX. Penguin Finance’s Yield Farming now can operate on AMM DEX like Pangolin, Trader Joe or Lydia.
Penguin Finance is currently in its early stages of development and the project will grow stronger in the Defi segment with applications such as the Prediction market, NFT + Defi.
Penguin, at the moment, is quite confident that they are providing a more attractive incentive level than the common ground. Besides the ordinary LP staking, Penguin Finance also has Auto-compound, which is a high-performance yield farm utility for the user.
