VVS Finance: the simple way into DeFi on Cronos
VVS Finance is the first and largest decentralized exchange on the Cronos chain. Swap tokens, provide liquidity, farm in the Mines, and stake VVS for the xVVS governance token — all without an account, a broker, or a middleman. This hub explains how every piece works, in plain language.
Live figures — price, supply in circulation, total value locked and volume — move every block. We deliberately don't print them here; check a real-time tracker such as CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko or DefiLlama instead.

AboutAbout this hub
What we cover, how we keep it accurate, and the official channels worth trusting.
No VVS Finance page, admin or "support agent" will ever ask for your wallet's seed phrase or private key — anyone who does is trying to rob you. Bookmark the channels you trust instead of searching each time, double-check any token contract address against the official channels, and read what a transaction approves before you sign it. Our security page has the full checklist.
What VVS is — and what it isn't
VVS Finance is an automated market maker (AMM): a decentralized exchange where trades are priced by a formula against pooled tokens, not by matching buyers and sellers on an order book. It's built for swapping, pooling, farming and staking. It is not a lending or borrowing platform — there are no loans, no collateralized debt, and no liquidations of borrower positions here. Those live on separate Cronos protocols. Keeping that distinction clear is the first step to using DeFi safely, and it's a thread we pick up across how it works and the glossary.
