Overview
WOO Network is a company that provides both centralized and decentralized services. Its main product is WOO X, a fee-free cryptocurrency trading platform that also serves as a liquidity aggregator for digital assets. WOOFi is the DeFi branch of the WOO Network and supports decentralized exchanges by providing liquidity on-chain. WOO Network aims to become a major player in the CeDefi bridge (between centralized and decentralized finance).
WOO Network was initially incubated by Kronos Research, a large quantitative trading company with 110 employees worldwide operating in market making, high-frequency trading (HFT), and arbitrage. Kronos Research observes an average of $5 billion in daily trading volume on global exchanges and is one of the largest algorithmic trading firms in the world.
It currently serves as the sole market maker on the WOO X trading platform. Kronos Research is also a designated market maker for Binance, Huobi, and OKEX, and is a leading market maker for the decentralized exchange dYdX.

Tokenomics
Allocation
In the first half of 2023, WOO Network will introduce a series of improvements to the WOO token. The first part will focus on addressing existing issues while making the token distribution more transparent.
WOO Network will burn over 705 million WOO tokens, about 24% of the maximum supply, when WOO Ventures, WOO DAO, and the insurance fund are broken.
All dead token burns will stop, while a large part of the remaining ecosystem tokens will be placed in time-locked vesting contracts to provide more transparency and clarity on token supply.
WOO Token Use Case
With WOO Tokens, the use cases for this token are as follows:
- 50% of transaction fees across the WOO Network service networks will be repurchased and burned on the secondary market every month, increasing the scarcity of WOO tokens.
- Staking:
- Staking to receive reduced transaction fees, unlock feeless trading features on WOO X.
- For institutions: When they generate large trading volumes on WOO X, they can stake WOO tokens based on their trading volumes and trading requirements to increase API limits and simultaneously reduce fees.
- Yield:
- WOO stakers will receive WOO tokens.
- WOO tokens will be staked on WOOFi to receive rewards from transaction fees.
- Discount: Using WOO Tokens will receive reduced transaction fees, encouraging buying WOO tokens.
- Governance: WOO Network aims to become a completely decentralized exchange. Therefore, WOO Tokens are planned to become governance tokens to earn voting rights over time and the amount of WOO staked.
- DeFi Liquidity Provision and Yield farming: WOO is embedded in various DEX exchanges to provide profits through yield farming.
- Borrowing & Lending: WOO can be used as collateral for borrowing and lending on Sushi Kashi, Rari Capital.
