What is Bao (BAO)?
Bao is a project that utilizes users’ LPs from hot AMM platforms such as Uniswap, Balancer, SushiSwap to create Synthetic assets.
In addition to Bao being dumplings, BAO also stands for: balancing, automation and options. A great pun from the project team.

Highlights of Bao (BAO)
If talking about Synthetic assets, the name that stands out the most, and probably still holds the “unique” position in this segment for a while longer, is Synthetix (SNX). So what was Bao born to do?
According to the project, Synthetix or UMA both have the following limitations:
- Requires using the project’s own assets to mint Synthetic assets. This results in aggregate asset classes that are all exposed to ONE ASSETS risk.
- Like many other projects, when you lock your assets, it will not be able to be used elsewhere.
- In some cases (UMA), a project that needs to use Oracle involves people.
Bao can be seen as an “upgrade” to the LP assets coming from these projects. Eg:
- Users deposit wBTC and ETH into Uniswap pool and in return receive LP tokens wBTC / ETH UNIV2-LP.
- They use wBTC / ETH UNIV2-LP that as collateral in Bao Finance.
- When they deposit collateral into Bao, they earn BAO tokens, which are worth 10% of the collateral.
- They can then create synthetic assets worth up to their collateral limit by burning a small fee in BAO.
In this way, the benefits received will be:
- Earn from being LP in Uniswap/SushiSwap/Balancer.
- Earn profit from being LP for the above AMMs.
- Earn profit in BAO through using the aforementioned LP tokens as collateral.
- Create Synthetic assets to invest elsewhere with the same value as the original asset.
