BUILDING ASSETS ON THE BLOCKCHAIN
Indigo is an algorithmic, autonomous synthetics protocol for on-chain price exposure to real-world assets, built on Cardano.
What is Indigo Protocol?
Indigo allows the creation of fungible assets, “synthetics”, that track the price of real world assets. Indigo synthetics are intended to be used as key building blocks in smart contracts, and to bring the world’s assets to the blockchain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Learn more about the Indigo Protocol here.
How can I use Indigo?
Currently, Indigo is in development so there is no way to interact with the protocol. However, when the application is launched there will be both a Web and Mobile application that allows you to interact with the Indigo Protocol.
What are the key benefits of Indigo?
Indigo will allow anyone, anywhere, at any time to tokenize any asset and trade it. It allows people to enter markets they otherwise would never have access to, and it levels the playing field in terms of financial freedom. As the usage of iAssets grows we will become freed from the constraints that have been placed on trading, investing, and saving. This is the power of decentralized finance.
How can I earn $INDY?
Those who wish to earn $INDY tokens can do so in two different ways:
1. By providing liquidity to any iAsset pool pairs.
2. By staking your $INDY to the protocol, you earn rewards generated from withdrawing collateral from CDP positions within the protocol.
What are iAssets?
iAssets are blockchain tokens that behave like synthetic versions of real-world assets by reflecting the exchange prices on-chain. They give traders the price exposure to real assets while enabling fractional ownership, open access and censorship resistance as any other cryptocurrency.
What are the tokenomics of $INDY?
The tokenomics are under research. It will be published in a Medium article soon.
