๐ช Welcome to Chronos, the premier community-owned liquidity layer built on the Arbitrum ecosystem. @everyone
๐งฟ You might be wondering, โWhy does Arbitrum need another Solidly fork?โ We asked ourselves this same question. In our opinion, the current state of ve(3,3) on Arbitrum leaves a lot to be desired. This isnโt meant as a dig against our competition. In fact, weโre grateful to the projects that have come before us.
By studying what works and what doesnโt among our predecessors, we believe weโve found the optimal version of ve(3,3) that can fulfill Andre Cronjeโs original vision and become a true cornerstone of Arbitrum DeFi. By aligning incentives so that they benefit all of the protocolโs participants โ its users, its partner protocols, and the ecosystem as a whole โ its our mission to contribute in a meaningful way to the continued growth and success of the Arbitrum ecosystem.
๐งฉ At Chronos, there is no VC investment and no private token sale. Instead, weโve chosen a bootstrapping model similar to the one first used by Thena: by raising funds through the sale of the chrNFTs, weโll generate enough capital to bribe CHRโs initial liquidity. As the flywheel takes effect, the holders of these NFTs will become โCommunity VCsโ, and will earn a share of protocol revenues into perpetuity.
โ๏ธ To everyone reading this, thank you for being here. More information about the protocol, the upcoming airdrop of CHR, the whitelisting procedure for the chrNFTs, and Chronosโs launch partners will be released over the coming days. Good things come to those who wait, and we plan to be around for a long, long time to come.

Introducing our next partner - Dyson.
As part of this partnership Dyson will be creating a liquid wrapper for Chronos's veNFTs.
Benefits of the liquid wrapper include:
๐งReduced sell pressure for $CHR
๐งLess $CHR in circulation
๐งBoosted $CHR yields without locking
Users will be able to trade their CHR for spCHR - a tradeable token that earns fees just like the veNFT. Dyson will lock all the CHR they receive to veCHR and use it to vote for the CHR/spCHR pair on Chronos to help defend the peg.
Users will also have the option of staking their CHR/spCHR on the Dyson platform to earn additional yield.
