Arbitrum (ARB)-based decentralized exchange Chronos has attracted more than $170 million in funding to its platform while promoting its new staking program. The new influx of funds triggered a double-digit rally in altcoin prices.
Chronos (CHR) introduced its new staking program
Launched on April 27, Chronos is an exchange called (3,3) and uses staking as its primary source. The (3,3) paradigm was made famous by one of the most important projects of the previous crypto bull run, the Ethereum-based Olympus DAO.
Some liquidity pools on Chronos pay up to 2,300% to liquidity providers in the form of CHR tokens that can be used to vote on protocol changes. Data shows that the platform has raised more than $170 million in funding shortly after launch.
Altcoin price reacts positively to funds flow
In terms of price, Chronos (CHR) is up over 30% compared to the last 24 hours. Its price peaked from $0.9966 to $1.81 during the day.
