TOKO, Tokoin’s native utility token, will join Fantom’s DeFi ecosystem as collateral for minting synthetics, including fUSD.

TOKO holders will be able to use fMint to access fUSD and other synthetics, which can be used with other Fantom DeFi products.

Specifically, fLend allows you to lend & borrow assets, while fTrade lets you trade them.

If you want to go long BTC (without losing exposure to your TOKO collateral), mint fUSD against your TOKO in fMint, and use the fUSD to buy fBTC (synthetic BTC) in fTrade. Sell the fBTC for fUSD later to repay the minted debt.

If you want to go short BTC (without losing exposure to your TOKO collateral), mint fBTC against your TOKO in fMint, sell the fBTC in fTrade. Rebuy fBTC later to repay the minted debt.

Once you’ve repaid any outstanding minted debt, you can unlock your collateral to withdraw.
