Persistence is the protocol enabling exposure to multiple asset classes such as Liquid Staking (pSTAKE), NFTs (Asset Mantle), and Synthetics (Comdex).

Persistence’s mission is to create an ecosystem of multi-chain Web3 products designed to stimulate global liquidity and enable seamless value exchange.

Persistence’s Core mainnet is a Proof-of-Stake chain powered by the Tendermint BFT consensus engine. Persistence’s multi-chain tech stack (currently supporting Cosmos, Ethereum, and other Tendermint-based chains) abstracts away the complexities for developers and enables them to create DEXs, marketplaces, lending/borrowing platforms, etc.

Persistence is also working on developing inter-chain NFT and Metadata standards along with leading Proof-of-Stake networks/foundations. Being one of the pioneers in the Proof-of-Stake industry, Persistence also supports upcoming PoS networks through its validator arm AUDIT.one.

The Project Development

Persistence came out of stealth on January 3rd, 2020. Over the past two years, while building the network and ecosystem, the team has fought hard to raise capital, navigated a global pandemic, and faced challenges with product iterations.

$XPRT

The native Persistence token plays 3 key roles:

Staking token (similar to other Tendermint based chains like Band, Kava, Terra)

Governance of the chain (Core-1)

Work token (stakers and delegators receive cash flows from the dapps such as pSTAKE, Asset Mantle)

Tokenomics

Token Release Schedule

Persistence is an interoperable protocol built to facilitate the creation of next-gen financial products. The Persistence tech stack provides the infrastructure to effectively bridge the realms of DeFi and traditional finance in a variety of areas, whilst also enabling the creation of innovative crypto-facing solutions to expand the DeFi and NFT sectors.

In Citadel.one, we standardize the semantics, making interactions with the platform as easy as possible. The same goes for network metrics. By using universal terms, we are making it easier for users to understand and compare networks.
