The two companies will collaborate on a wide range of activities encompassing the DeFi and CeFi sphere, bringing better liquidity to Polygon and more transactions to the Wootrade network.
Polygon, which has created a thriving ecosystem of trading activity, is growing massively in popularity. This is mainly due to its composability and ability to scale Ethereum’s vibrant blockchain infrastructure. Currently, the Layer 2 Matic plasma chain is already online, with plans to link between other Layer 2 scaling solutions including Optimistic rollups, zk rollups, and Validium solutions.
The expansion of this scaling solution creates a need for liquidity providers, an opportunity that Wootrade is well-suited to fill. Wootrade can add value to Polygon by providing liquidity on trading pairs, decentralized exchanges, bridges, and other decentralized apps. In doing so, Wootrade will be able to capture even more flow, adding to the $4.8 billion that passed through the network in April.
Wootrade’s advantage in the DeFi space is its ability to provide a capital-efficient source of liquidity, giving traders the best pricing execution on swaps, trades, or other transactions. This was demonstrated by the 5 private pools that Wootrade created with DODO on BSC, where around $2.5 million in total value locked (TVL) was transacted for over $890 million dollars in April, with fees hovering near a minuscule 0.05%.
Listing the Matic token on the WOO network
Wootrade can also support Polygon in the CeFi space, by providing liquidity support for the MATIC token. Aggregating liquidity for MATIC will make it more accessible to the 20+ institutions trading on the Wootrade Network, as well as WOO X, Wootrade’s first-party exchange. MATIC was officially listed on May 6th, signaling the official start of Wootrade’s support for the Polygon ecosystem. Wootrade’s WOO token has also been mapped to the PoS Matic network, meaning that WOO will be able to capture utility from dApps running on Polygon.
“The collaboration with Wootrade is monumental in increasing efficient liquidity on Polygon, which is a need of the hour with the top DeFi protocols launching on Polygon. We look forward to working closely with Wootrade and eliminating any liquidity worries for our users,” said Sandeep Nailwal, Co-Founder at Polygon.
“Polygon was always on our radar as they were quick to launch a highly composable Ethereum Layer 2 solution, said Wootrade COO Ran Yi. “After seeing the user growth in 2021, we were eager to build stronger ties to the Polygon developer and trading communities. Polygon gives us unique opportunities to build better trading infrastructure for Ethereum-based digital assets, and we see this as being a major value addition to both sides.”
