About
Bancor Network Token (BNT) is an Ethereum token that powers the Bancor protocol. The protocol describes itself as “a fully on-chain liquidity protocol that can be implemented on any smart contract-enabled blockchain.”
What is Bancor (BNT)?
Bancor is a collection of smart contracts that control the conversion flow between different tokens on the Bancor Network platform. According to the Bancor Network claims, these smart contracts also control access to the network's liquidity pools, which connect different tokens. Users can use the Bancor Network smart contract's convert functionalities to initiate a conversion between any tokens on the network, including tokens on other blockchains.
Currently, the Bancor Network is based on the Ethereum blockchain. However, the protocol is interoperable with other blockchains as well. The ability to check and obtain information across many blockchain systems is known as blockchain interoperability.
The Bancor Network Token (BNT) is at the center of the network, serving as a hub that connects all of the other tokens. USDB (USD Bancor) is a stable form of BNT that may be used as a substitute reserve currency for Bancor Network. Additionally, USDB is a token backed by BNT and used in Bancor Network relays.
On the Bancor Network, every liquidity pool collects liquidity for a specific set of tokens. Anyone can contribute liquidity to a pool in exchange for conversion fees on trades that pass through it. Pool tokens are then distributed to the contributors in proportion to their assets in the pool. A ConverterBase contract manages each liquidity pool, and the liquidity providers can construct new instances of the ConverterBase contract to generate new liquidity pools. ConverterBase contracts are the contracts that carry the main logic of conversion between different ERC20 smart tokens. Also, to add or remove liquidity from a pool, anyone can use the fund or liquidate functions.
Bancor's newer version, Bancor v2.1, offers additional features to liquidity providers such as single-sided exposure and impermanent loss protection. These improvements have been incorporated with the aim to produce higher and more reliable yields from trading fees and liquidity mining rewards.
History of Bancor (BNT)
According to the whitepaper, Bancor was introduced in 2017 by Eyal Hertzog, Galia Benartzi, and Guy Benartzi. The company was named Bancor in honor of John Maynard Keynes, who coined the term in 1940 to characterize supranational currency. During its ICO (initial coin offering) launch in 2017, the protocol raised around $144 million.
Eyal Hertzog has been a technology entrepreneur for more than 20 years. Currently, he is a product architect of the BNT protocol and other products on the network. He also founded a video sharing site in Israel known as MetaCafe, which has over 50 million users.
Galia Benartzi is a business developer at Bancor. She is also founder and CEO of Particle Code and has been a technology entrepreneur for a long time.
Lastly, Guy Benartzi is chief executive at Bancor and is now working on Bancor Protocol. In 2005, he also cofounded Mytopia, a company that creates cross-platform games for social media users.

Users can sell the relay tokens at any moment.
