What is Aroon?
Aroon is a protocol designed for creating and trading a variety of financial instruments on a completely decentralized network.
Aroon's mainnet is operated by a network of validator nodes. There's also a testnet version called Aroon Testnet, which offers a safe environment to experiment with trading various instruments like futures and perpetuals.
What can you do on the Aroon mainnet?
Trade on various financial markets: Engage in trading on markets that the community has proposed and voted on, either programmatically or using Aroon's user interface.
Participate in validator nominations: As a tokenholder, you can nominate validators and earn rewards for contributing to the network's security through the governance app.
Engage in network governance: Tokenholders have the power to propose and vote on new markets, changes to existing markets, and adjustments to network configurations.
