Bitcoin of DeFi - STA

Statera is an index fund is a fund that can track a specified basket of underlying investments and in this case: BTC, ETH, LINK, and SNX all "balanced" with STA. These coins are set in the fund at a specified percent so as one goes up or down the others are automatically bought or sold to balance risk and maximize profit. HOWEVER, the key is that STA is deflationary (whenever a STA transaction happens for buying/selling/pooling, 1% of said transaction is burned). This token burn along with tokens being locked in pools, pressures prices up to again make sure the other coins will be balanced, but also creates arbitrage opportunities across funds.

Why is increasing volume, liquidity and arbitrage useful with STATERA? Well while pooling STATERA you earn a percent of all transaction fees in the liquidity pool. Please feel free to read the medium article outlining the first 2-3 months which came out to be an APY of 36% creating dividends where there were none (https://medium.com/@stateraproject). The power of STA is that the ripple effect of: (1) compounded fees, (2) token burn, (3) price pulled by balancing with ETH, BTC, SNX and LINK leads to an exponential effect and positive feedback loop on price. This leads to the concept created by STATERA known as "Volume Farming."
