What Is Centric Swap (CNS)?

Centric Swap is a blockchain-based protocol that aims to address the price volatility problem of cryptocurrencies. The decentralized model followed by most cryptocurrencies has led the assets to be traded unregulated and hence, prone to manipulation, making demand change a significant factor affecting the price stability of these digital assets. Centric Swap attempts to create a stable scenario for the crypto space to realize the real value of blockchains. The developers of Centric Swap believe that a highly liquid digital asset with better stability and predictable returns forms the basis for the asset to be accepted for its functionality. 

Centric Swap uses Centric Rise as its native currency. The CNR (CNR) is traded on the Centric payment network. According to the whitepaper, Centric Rise is to have a stable exchange rate against a commonly accepted traditional currency. Thus, Centric Swap follows a model that is similar to institutionally regulated monetary policy. 

Centric Swap (CNS) is the token used by the Centric ecosystem as a common medium of exchange. The token is not similar to any traditional currency or digital asset. Moreover, CNS is also compatible with existing cryptocurrency ecosystems. Thus, the token also provides liquidity for the Centric payment network. The token is developed to provide utility in a bigger ecosystem. Through partnerships and collaborations, Centric Swap aims to create a space where Dapps and services can use the CNS token. 

Centric manages the price of CNS so that it increases over time. Using a two-token system, Centric employs autonomous feedback mechanisms to balance demands. The dynamics of this system ensure the rate of return for CNR is maintained; while also assisting in making CNS more stable. 

Centric purposes its own blockchain network in the future for more optimal utilization of its services. Centric Ventures is a program that proposes to create an ecosystem using innovation that adds value to the Centric network.
