Uniswap As a decentralised protocol Umbria is focussed on creating accessible applications so that anyone can participate in DeFi confidently. DeFi is a very steep learning curve, but Umbria aims to simplify and demystify the currently over-complicated user-experience, which acts as a barrier to entry for many. On the Umbria network, users will gain access to a developing suite of services created by smart contracts, which are a type of autonomous computer programme that work with Ethereum on the internet. One of the initial features of Umbria will be to allow users to deposit cryptocurrency as liquidity in AMM pools (automated market making) to earn fees from token swapping. Soon Umbria users will be able to swap their tokens and earn interest (API) on their cryptocurrencies positions with other facilities coming online via developers and community initiatives that will utilise the Umbria protocol and its utility token. In addition to these functions, the Umbria governance token will also allow users in the network to take control over decision-making and have voting power over the development of Umbria’s protocol.

As a market listed company, OBC provides a level of transparency rare in the crypto and DeFi space; users will be able to see exactly who is coordinating and advising. LON: OBC “Having a publicly-listed company as an advisor sets us apart from many other DeFi projects. Online Blockchain has been an innovator and incubator in finance and technology for over 20 years and this wealth of experience is invaluable to Umbria,” said Umbria founder and developer Oscar Chambers. “There is a lot of innovation happening in this space, but it is very difficult for the layman to get into DeFi because there is so much to understand. Umbria wants to make this simple and easy to use. DeFi is a huge leap into the future of finance,” says co-founder and developer Barney Chambers.

The world will have to go “risk on” to recover and the winner of those races will grab onto the fastest and most dramatic technologies to try to drag themselves from the quicksand of economic depression. DeFi and crypto will undoubtedly be part of that and in the world that now talks in trillions of dollars, these developments will be hugely valuable.” his recent articles on Forbes Crypto About Umbria You can find more information about the project and team on where you can find Umbria Network website Umbria DeFi LitePaper V 1.2 Currently Umbria is traded on the Uniswap exchange.
