THE FIRST AMM-BASED DECENTRALIZED MARGIN
TRADING PLATFORM
Lever

Network
According to the recent market report, lending projects and
DEXes are the top 2 categories in DeFi by TVL.
While decentralized finance is experiencing exponential growth, it is also faced with a major
challenge of low utilization of funds. On the one hand, being two of the pillar businesses in
the current DeFi space, lending and trading are relatively isolated, as users cannot take out
loans and directly trade within a single lending protocol or decentralized exchange.
On the other hand, margin trading as a trillion-dollar market in the crypto world is absent
from DeFi — i.e., users can hardly long or short an asset on any DEX.

Lever is essentially an open-source margin trading platform where you can
lend, borrow and perform leveraged trading to either buy long/sell short an
asset in just one place. For lenders/borrowers, you can lend your idle crypto
assets (including your deposit certificates from other lending protocols) to
earn interest or use them as collateral to take out loans. And for traders,
after making a margin deposit in the margin pool, you will be able to open
either long or short positions in a supported asset in Lever with up to 3x
leverage.The platform makes use of external AMMs like Uniswap to provide
surplusliquidityformargintraderstoopenpositionsofanysize.
AboutLever
Lever Instruction
1.Deposit: First you need to deposit any supported asset in Lever. The platform supports
various assets to be used as collateral, which can start earning interest after depositing.


2.Margin: After depositing, simply head to the Margin section and click on Sell(Short)/
Buy(Long)for the asset pair you want to trade.


3.Opening a Position: Set the amount you need based on your available deposit that would
be used as collateral for the loan. Then select the leverage ratio, the system will
automatically convert the maximum amount that can be used for this trade.
Users can make a deposit through the Markets and the Dashboard page
based on their need for depositing and/or trading. The loan-to-value (LTV)
ratio varies from asset to asset. Here are the full steps to use Lever.

4. Closing a Position: Select the asset position to be closed and then select the swap-to asset (or the
one in debt). Your position will be closed once the trade is complete.


5. Repayment: You can repay the loan after closing the position, with the risk rate increasing as the
loan amount decreases.


6. Withdrawal: To ensure the safety of assets in your account, only when the risk rate of your 

margin account is above 150% can you transfer digital assets from your margin account to your
wallet, and the risk rate of your margin account after transfer shall not be less than 150%. Amount of
transferable currency = max (currency position-position limit, 0) + max [(risk rate of margin
account-150%)* (total liability + unreturned service fee) /latest trading price of USDT paired trading,
0]. If both deposit and loan assets exist, the interest on the deposit and the interest on the loan shall
be compensated.


Lever supports only the variable-rate option to simplify the trading process.


You can exchange your deposited assets in Lever for another asset, even those used as collateral.
PRODUCT
FEATURES
To resolve market problems and take DeFi to the next level, the Lever protocol was
developed. As both a lending and a trading platform, Lever distinguishes itself from other
competitors in the market with the metrics below:
Enormous liquidity. By introducing external AMMs, like Uniswap, SushiSwap and
PancakeSwap, users can open long and short positions on our platform with a wide range
of assets including Uniswap (UNI), Synthetix (SNX), Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) and Aave.

High capital efficiency. As both a lending platform and a DEX, Lever provides a trading
scenario for loans and also offers margin trading service to traders, which can significantly
increase loan frequency and loan size, making high capital efficiency possible. Moreover,
Lever allows users to use their tokenized deposit certificates from other lending platforms
to earn interest or take out loans for leveraged margin trading.
Easy-to-use interface. A visualized position management interface is designed to 
help
users easily open or close positions in just one click. Besides, by integrating 
with
TradingView, a professional candlestick chart is also provided to ensure the best 
trading
experience.
LEV
USER INTERFACE
How lever
works
Lever has a robust and scalable technical structure which is designed to provide the
best user experience and ensure high security.
Lever’
s risk control focuses on 4 aspects, which are Liquidation, Oracle, Token Listing and
Risk Reserve, with each aspect has its unique metrics to ensure the safety of users funds
and the sustainable development of the platform.
RISK CONTROL
The execution of Lever’
s liquidation mechanism is featured with 0 costs and 0 delays.


Compared with AAVE, Lever has its innovative improvement. The liquidation smart
contract in Lever‘s protocol will be automatically triggered when it is called by
liquidators. No upfront assets are needed from liquidators, making 0-cost liquidation
possible.

The major challenge for existing margin trading platforms in DeFi is their
inefficient liquidity. Take dYdX as an example. It has already launched its
margin trading service but since dYdX is order-book based, its liquidity is
naturally limited. That’s why only few trading pairs, like BTC/USDT and
ETH/DAI are supported in dYdX.

  • 1. April 21, 2021 THE FIRST AMM-BASED DECENTRALIZED MARGIN TRADING PLATFORM Lever Network
  • 2. According to the recent market report, lending projects and DEXes are the top 2 categories in DeFi by TVL. While decentralized finance is experiencing exponential growth, it is also faced with a major challenge of low utilization of funds. On the one hand, being two of the pillar businesses in the current DeFi space, lending and trading are relatively isolated, as users cannot take out loans and directly trade within a single lending protocol or decentralized exchange. On the other hand, margin trading as a trillion-dollar market in the crypto world is absent from DeFi — i.e., users can hardly long or short an asset on any DEX. Background of DefiC o m p o u n d A a v e S u s h i S w a p U n i s w a p C u r v e S y n t h e t i x B a l a n c e r B a n c o r 7.00 M a k e r 5.25 TVL($1 B) 3.50 1.75 0
  • 3. Lever is essentially an open-source margin trading platform where you can lend, borrow and perform leveraged trading to either buy long/sell short an asset in just one place. For lenders/borrowers, you can lend your idle crypto assets (including your deposit certificates from other lending protocols) to earn interest or use them as collateral to take out loans. And for traders, after making a margin deposit in the margin pool, you will be able to open either long or short positions in a supported asset in Lever with up to 3x leverage.The platform makes use of external AMMs like Uniswap to provide surplusliquidityformargintraderstoopenpositionsofanysize. AboutLever
  • 4. Lever Instruction 1.Deposit: First you need to deposit any supported asset in Lever. The platform supports various assets to be used as collateral, which can start earning interest after depositing. 2.Margin: After depositing, simply head to the Margin section and click on Sell(Short)/ Buy(Long)for the asset pair you want to trade. 3.Opening a Position: Set the amount you need based on your available deposit that would be used as collateral for the loan. Then select the leverage ratio, the system will automatically convert the maximum amount that can be used for this trade. Users can make a deposit through the Markets and the Dashboard page based on their need for depositing and/or trading. The loan-to-value (LTV) ratio varies from asset to asset. Here are the full steps to use Lever. How lever works Margin Pool AMM Deposit Open position Withdraw Close position

Closing a Position: Select the asset position to be closed and then select the swap-to asset (or the one in debt). Your position will be closed once the trade is complete. 5. Repayment: You can repay the loan after closing the position, with the risk rate increasing as the loan amount decreases. 6. Withdrawal: To ensure the safety of assets in your account, only when the risk rate of your margin account is above 150% can you transfer digital assets from your margin account to your wallet, and the risk rate of your margin account after transfer shall not be less than 150%. Amount of transferable currency = max (currency position-position limit, 0) + max [(risk rate of margin account-150%)* (total liability + unreturned service fee) /latest trading price of USDT paired trading, 0]. If both deposit and loan assets exist, the interest on the deposit and the interest on the loan shall be compensated. Lever supports only the variable-rate option to simplify the trading process. You can exchange your deposited assets in Lever for another asset, even those used as collateral.
  • 6. PRODUCT FEATURES To resolve market problems and take DeFi to the next level, the Lever protocol was developed. As both a lending and a trading platform, Lever distinguishes itself from other competitors in the market with the metrics below: Enormous liquidity. By introducing external AMMs, like Uniswap, SushiSwap and PancakeSwap, users can open long and short positions on our platform with a wide range of assets including Uniswap (UNI), Synthetix (SNX), Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) and Aave. High capital efficiency. As both a lending platform and a DEX, Lever provides a trading scenario for loans and also offers margin trading service to traders, which can significantly increase loan frequency and loan size, making high capital efficiency possible. Moreover, Lever allows users to use their tokenized deposit certificates from other lending platforms to earn interest or take out loans for leveraged margin trading. Easy-to-use interface. A visualized position management interface is designed to help users easily open or close positions in just one click. Besides, by integrating with TradingView, a professional candlestick chart is also provided to ensure the best trading experience.
  • 8. How lever works Lever has a robust and scalable technical structure which is designed to provide the best user experience and ensure high security.
  • 9. Lever’ s risk control focuses on 4 aspects, which are Liquidation, Oracle, Token Listing and Risk Reserve, with each aspect has its unique metrics to ensure the safety of users funds and the sustainable development of the platform. RISK CONTROL The execution of Lever’ s liquidation mechanism is featured with 0 costs and 0 delays. Compared with AAVE, Lever has its innovative improvement. The liquidation smart contract in Lever‘s protocol will be automatically triggered when it is called by liquidators. No upfront assets are needed from liquidators, making 0-cost liquidation possible. INNOVATIVE LIQUIDATION Risk Control Token Listing Risk Reserve Oracle Liquidation Innovation Chainlink TWAP of Uniswap 0 Costs 0 Delays High Liquidity High Market Cap Governance 20% of Trading Fee 20% of Token Mining 30% of Liquidation Penalty

  • 11. The major challenge for existing margin trading platforms in DeFi is their inefficient liquidity. Take dYdX as an example. It has already launched its margin trading service but since dYdX is order-book based, its liquidity is naturally limited. That’s why only few trading pairs, like BTC/USDT and ETH/DAI are supported in dYdX. COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS Greater Trading Liquidity Reutilization of Deposited Assets Token’s Market Cap Margin LendingPool Order book based with limited liquidity. No liquidity mining rewards. No No issued token Cross&Isolated $240M Small liquidity. A protocol for tokenized margin trading. No $BZRX, $71M Cross $22M AMM, by Sushi only. No $Sushi, $2B Isolated $40M By integrating with external AMMs, Lever is able to provide greater trading liquidity. aToken from Aave and cToken from Compund. TVL is the first native token of AMM-based decentralized margin trading platform. Cross Launch soon
