What is Konomi Network (KONO)? All About KONO Token

What is Konomi Network?

Konomi Network is a decentralized money market protocol on Polkadot. Using the Substrate framework, Konomi acts as an assets management solution for all assets deployed on the Polkadot parachain.

With Konomi, users can do almost everything with their assets from trading, lending, using derivatives to tracking portfolios effectively. Ultimately, Konomi aims to offer one-stop experience in asset management in the DOT ecosystem.

How does Konomi Network work?

As mentioned before, Konomi is designed to offers users comprehensive financial services on Polkadot:

Konomi Trade: Konomi Trade allows users to access liquidity for assets in the Polkadot ecosystem. It uses the AMM model like Uniswap and allows uses to conduct immediate on-chain transactions/

Konomi Lend: Being built on Polkadot, Konomi Lend has a comparative advantage over some mainstream lending protocols on Ethereum: lower transaction fees, liquidation penalties, collateral ratios, and liquidation thresholds.

In the most recent update from Konomi, Konomi Wallet will be removed from the development roadmap as this feature has been supported by Konomi partners. Instead, Konomi has announced 2 new products:

Multichain Oracle: Konomi developed its own oracle, which can be deployed by multiple chains (Polkadot, KSM, Polygon, Ethereum, and BSC). However, the core incentive for the team to build their own oracle is to enable the launch of their P2P Lending product.

P2P Lending: It offers users full control of their yield earning. Anyone can create their own lending pool, set the interest rate, maturity, collateral liquidation rates, and collateral assets. Therefore, Oracle is needed to provide the price for the custom lending pool.

Is Konomi Network (KONO) a good investment?

I hope that from all the mentioned information, you can get a basic understanding of Konomi Network to start researching more about this project. It is hard to tell firmly whether any project/ token is a good investment or not.

However, I will provide you with some key highlights of Konomi Network so that you can do your own research and make your own investment decisions.

• Konomi has built a strong relationship with the community by being extremely active on its channels, updating the progress as well as having multiple events, creating a trustworthy and reliable image among its users.
• Konomi Network is built on Polkadot, a blockchain with high scalability. Being a protocol that provides seamless financial applications for any token available on the Polkadot parachain, Konomi Network will benefit directly from the expansion of the whole ecosystem. However, when Konomi Network will be implemented in Polkadot depends on the mainnet time of the ecosystem.
• Before officially being plugged on DOT parachains, Konomi will still launch its mainnet in the 4th quarter. This way, Konomi can acquire loyal users before launching on Polkadot.

Conclusion

Konomi Network still has many ambitious goals to work on. Besides building products, Konomi also emphasizes building a strong community to support the project. The mainnet will be released soon in the 4th Quarter and is expected to be a huge milestone for the project.
