ADMIN ROUND
I welcome you on behalf of Crypto players India team, hope you will enjoy today’s AMA session.
Very excited to have you with us.😊

Please tell us about yourself and the team working on Francium?
Neon
I am Neon from Francium protocol, I am serving as a community manager.
All the members of team Francium are the earliest users of crypto. We have worked with TOP blockchain and Internet companies. Prior to the development of Francium Protocol, we have well equipped ourselves with blockchain algorithmic research and implementation experience. Based on this sort of experience, a lot of innovative work is being done.

Let’s talk about farming pools first, if you want to farm how should you get LP? And how farming with Francium is profitable? Has Francium got any grants?
Neon
All you need to do is deposit a token, such as USDC. Francium’s on-chain smart contract will automatically convert half of the deposited USDC into another token (e.g., SOL), then add these tokens to the relevant DEX to get the LP, and then stake the LP to the mining pool. Francium helps its users to automatically take out their earnings and reinvest them. This allows rapid generation of profit, hence maximizing earnings. Yes, have some grants from Solana and Serum. Users (farmers) borrow assets to increase yields in leveraged yield farming. The principle is simple: if you have more tokens, you will have more returns. It indicates that if you use leverage, your yield will be multiplied. Although you will have to pay interest on the borrowed assets, leveraged yield farming still has a high capital efficiency.

Francium’s lending pool is popular for APR, so tell the reason why APR is high in francium’s lending pool?
Neon
Many users wanted to know the reason, that’s true, the APR of lending pools on Francium is higher as compared to most of the other lending protocols, this is due to the fact that the utilization of funds in these pools is mostly high.

Could you layout your view on the Solana DeFi landscape today? What are Strengths/ Weaknesses & Opportunities/ Threads? What excites you? Has Francium been Audited?
Neon
I think “high speed and low cost” are the strengths of the DeFi product in Solana. This will bring more Strengths such as higher Network Value. low cost may bring more DeFi users, more users bring more net value.
Francium happened to post an article named “Why Build DeFi on Solana?”. Lots of analysis and opinions have been expressed in this post. Audiences could find this post in francium medium. Solana’s official account has also retweeted this post.

Another Strength of Solana DeFi is that there are a lot of traders(SBF, ) in the Solana ecosystem. This would bring more diverse strategies into Solana. And big players in traditional finance have joined this eco. (Jump Trading Pyth ). About the weaknesses, it would be better if there is more DeFi native innovation besides things such as order-book-based exchangers.
TWITTER ROUND
How do you plan to spread awareness about your project in countries/regions where English is not spoken well like Indonesia,Vietnam,India,Bangladesh and Iran, do you have local communities for them to make them better understand about #Francium_Defi project?

Where can I buy your tokens now, what are your current contracts address and how can I buy them and what are the benefits?
Neon
We haven’t generated a native token, news will be announced through our official channels. Please do follow us on Twitter, discord, and TG.
Does your team consider community feedback or requests during product creation to expand on new ideas for its projects? Many projects fail because they do not understand the target audience and customers. So I want to know who is the ideal consumer for #Francium_Defi products?
Neon
Great question, our community is our strength, we have a strong bonding with our community, anyone of you can go to our discord right now and ask them about the way of interaction and the way we address their concerns.

Security is a critical concern for users in any project with growing number of scammers. What level of security can Your project guarantee users? Do you have AUDIT certificate?
