TomoChain is excited to announce our partnership with RAMP DEFI to extend stake farming and cross-chain liquidity unlocking.

Partnership Synergies Between TomoChain and RAMP

RAMP DEFI focuses on unlocking liquid capital from staked digital assets. TOMO users will be able to extract additional liquid capital without having to give up their staking rewards or capital appreciation potential.

How it works:

  • Using RAMP smart contracts, users collateralize their TOMO into a native stablecoin, tomoUSD, on the TOMO network.
  • Users then exchange the tomoUSD for rUSD, a 1:1 representation of stablecoin value on the Ethereum network.
  • TomoChain users holding rUSD can then borrow/exchange for fiat-equivalent stablecoins of choice (USDT/USDC/TUSD/DAI) to invest into new opportunities.

TomoBridge, which acts as the cross-chain bridge between TomoChain and Ethereum, plays a crucial role in ensuring this cross-chain liquidity transfer.

Benefits for TOMO Holders

In this partnership with RAMP, TOMO users can expect to receive the following benefits:

  1. Retain TOMO staking rewards;
  2. Retain capital gains potential on holding TOMO;
  3. Gain access to liquid capital to invest in new opportunities without needing to inject additional capital;
  4. Earn RAMP tokens and enhance asset yields by actively participating in the RAMP ecosystem.

Technical, Marketing and Growth Collaborations

TomoChain and RAMP DEFI shall work closely on the technical development of smart contracts powering the staking, minting and liquidation functions, and ensure that these smart contracts are secure for use by the TOMO community.

TomoChain will also list RAMP on TomoDEX, the first decentralized exchange powered by the TomoX protocol. More details on the listing shall be provided in a separate announcement.

TomoChain & RAMP DEFI will also join hands to unite the two communities & extend our services worldwide through co-marketing campaigns & community programs. Both parties look forward to creating new DeFi use cases to head towards mass adoption.

“We’re excited to partner with RAMP DEFI to offer TomoChain holders with a form of asset flexibility that will enable a plethora of new financial options. RAMP DEFI is evolving the concept of ‘soft staking’ developed by centralized exchanges in an innovative way that is also trustless. TomoChain stakers will be able to unlock the liquidity representing their stake, while continuing to secure the TomoChain blockchain network and earn passive returns, all at the same time. Providing TomoChain holders new options to manage and utilize their assets is part of the open finance future we are working towards, so I’m really looking forward to the various opportunities that integrating with RAMP DEFI will avail for our community.” — Kyn Chaturvedi, TomoChain’s CBDO.

“We are excited to partner with TomoChain as they have all the foundational DeFi infrastructure required for RAMP to be successfully implemented on. The native TOMO token also has substantial token trading liquidity on leading exchanges and a friendly staking program, which makes it an excellent fit for integration with RAMP.”— Lawrence Lim, Project Lead of RAMP DEFI
