see the decentralized exchange (DEX) launch on the TRON
network. Curve Set To Launch On Tron And BTTC Networks
Decentralized Exchange, Curve Finance has solidified its position
as the second largest DEX, following the announcement of its
integration into the TRON network. Curve Finance’s recent alliance
with the TRON network has prompted a substantial investment from
TRON DAO Ventures, a venture capital firm established by the TRON
network. On Thursday, August 17, TRON Founder, Justin Sun purchased
$2 million worth of CRV, the native token of the DeFi
protocol. Similarly, Curve Finance has stated that it will be
launching on the BitTorrent Chain (BTTC) network, a peer-to-peer
network blockchain scaling solution for file and data sharing. The
Integration of the protocol into TRON DAO and BTTC networks aims to
fuel the development of innovative DeFi projects and the growth of
DeFi ecosystems. Curve Finance is widely known for its role
in stable coin trading by providing low slippage exchanges through
automated market maker (AMM) algorithms. By aligning with the
protocol, TRON and BTTC will benefit from lower financial
costs and indirect backing from prominent blockchains Curve DAO
supports including Avalanche, Ethereum, and Arbitrum. Justin Sun
welcomed the newly formed alliance with enthusiasm. He commented
that Curve Finance plays a pivotal role in the DeFi ecosystem and
blockchain industry and looked forward to new innovative solutions
promoted by the partnership. “Curve is an essential DeFi
infrastructure for the blockchain industry. Our thoughts are with
the team and the users affected. As a community, let’s support and
strengthen the security measures to protect our decentralized
ecosystem,” Sun stated. CRV price resting at $0.54 | Source:
CRVUSDT on Tradingview.com Compensation For Hack Victims Following
Tron Alliance The decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape was
previously shaken up following news of a hack on the DEX. On July
30, Curve Finance fell victim to a reentrancy attack that exploited
vulnerabilities in its smart contract codes, resulting in a loss of
$62 million. Following the news of the hack attack, the CRV
token declined and the majority of the DeFi ecosystem was in panic.
However, Curve Finance has reportedly recovered 70% of the funds
and to recover the rest of the stolen funds, the protocol has
placed a bounty on the attacker, promising $1.85 million to anyone
able to reveal the hacker’s identity. Curve Finance has also
promised to compensate victims of the security breach. The DEX has
stated that it will distribute reimbursements fairly as they
determine the extent of damages and work toward recovering the
stolen funds. Featured image from Zipmex, chart from
