Bond Protocol is the new industry-standard platform that helps protocols acquire their own liquidity. Protocols no longer have to pay high incentives to rent liquidity, while also guaranteeing the permanence of liquidity to facilitate transactions. Instead of staking their LP (liquidity provider) tokens to earn rewards in a pool, users can exchange their LP tokens for the protocol's governance tokens at a discounted rate. This process is called Bonding. As the protocol never sells these LP tokens, the liquidity is effectively locked in its treasury.
