Amp offers a straightforward but exceptionally versatile interface for verifiable collateralization through a system of collateral partitions and collateral managers. Where collateral partitions can be designated to collateralize any account, application, or even transaction, and carry balances which are directly verifiable on the Ethereum blockchain, collateral managers are smart contracts that can lock, release, and redirect collateral in these partitions as needed in order to support value transfer activities.

Amp supports a wide variety of use cases for collateralization, and also introduces the concept of predefined partition strategies, which can enable special capabilities such as collateral models through which tokens can be staked without ever leaving their original address.

Stake:  Amp is an extensible platform for collateralizing asset transfers. By staking Amp, any form of value exchange can be guaranteed: digital payments, fiat currency exchange, loan distributions, property sales, and more.

Send:  Once staked to a partition, Amp is ready to collateralize a transfer. With the use of collateral pools, Amp effectively decentralizes the risk of asset transfer—especially suitable for fraud-proof networks and real-world applications.

Repeat:  Amp also simplifies network reward distribution once a transfer is complete. The Amp smart contracts offer a variety of built-in incentive models, including micro-distributions and continuous compounding.

Amp helps you decentralize risk for your users with smart contract features purpose-built for collateral. Nothing more, nothing less.

Collateral as a Service:  Amp collateralization is tested, audited, and freely available for anyone to use. It’s easy to build apps that lock and unlock Amp on demand to secure transfers, enable lending, and make value move more quickly.

Extensible and Open-Source:  Amp was designed to be as flexible and future-proof as possible. Amp’s open-source license makes it possible to create and deploy custom collateral managers for your app to interface with Amp on your own terms.

Non-inflationary:  When new projects adopt Amp, existing implementations benefit from increased liquidity and decentralization, which in turn reduces volatility and enhances collateral quality as a result of the token’s Fixed Supply.

Asset-agnostic:  Amp doesn’t discriminate based on consensus mechanism or form of asset. Any kind of transfer—whether digital or physical—can use Amp as collateral to secure transactions.

From staking payments on Flexa to providing stability through liquidity, the Amp ecosystem offers many ways to use and earn Amp today.
