Curve Finance, similar to Uniswap, is an Automated Market Maker (AMM) based Decentralized Exchange (DEX). However, Curve Finance focuses on swapping between assets that are supposed to have the same value, making it suitable for the DeFi ecosystem. It supports pools consisting of wrapped and synthetic tokens that mimic the price of the underlying assets. For example, the 3CRV pool consists of DAI, USDT, and USDC in ratios determined by market supply and demand. Curve Finance also supports yield-bearing tokens, collaborating with Yearn Finance to create yUSD pools that offer yield from underlying yield-bearing tokens and swap fees generated by the Curve pool.
