Where did PoverPool (CVP) come from?

The PowerPool protocol started in August 2020. It was originally designed as a meta-management protocol in order to accumulate control powers in DeFi. After a while, the team focused on developing automated products at DeFi thanks to the opinion of their community and important advisors (such as Delphi Digital). Such a change of activity led to the designing of the Power Agent network, which in turn is responsible for the reliable and fast execution of all transactions, and also automates complex intranet strategies.

PowerPool has two co-founders: LeeRoy Oshiya (a successful broker, considered one of the most influential people in the field of cryptocurrency) and Not.Satoshi (part-time CTO of the company, one of those who got into crypto before it became mainstream). It is also worth mentioning the chief architect of the project, Gordon Gekko, who has many years of experience in advising on strategies and investments.

As you can see, only the aliases of some team members are listed on the official PowerPool website. However, there is no doubt about their experience.

The CVP token did not have venture funding at launch and was distributed as follows: part went to the team, part to community members, and part to liquidity providers.

   This is due to the fact that passive income is only possible through the mining of native tokens and swap fees. Thus, the APY that the user receives is quite low.
2. Inconvenient commissions
   
   Users are forced to pay commissions even if they just have a deposit or if they buy out the underlying assets.
