A concentrated liquidity exchange with vote-escrow governance — built for traders and liquidity providers who want on-chain transparency and real yield.
Launch App Learn MoreConcentrated liquidity positions let providers focus capital in active price ranges. A $10,000 position can generate fees comparable to a much larger spread-out deposit on older AMM designs — similar to what Uniswap v3 demonstrated on Ethereum.
Every swap on the Kyo Finance platform generates fees distributed directly to veKYO holders and liquidity providers. No inflation tricks, no hidden dilution. The $159K market cap and active trading volume make fee APRs meaningful even at current size.
SONEIUM runs on Optimism-based sequencing. Gas pricing follows EIP-1559 mechanics, so users get predictable base fees. Swapping small amounts — $20, $50 — remains practical in a way it simply is not on Ethereum mainnet.
veKYO holders vote on pool emissions weekly. Results are recorded on-chain. The process is auditable by anyone; no multisig can override a vote outcome without community consent.

Add SONEIUM to your wallet and connect to the Kyo Finance app. MetaMask, Rabby, and WalletConnect are all supported. Takes about 30 seconds.
Pick any supported token pair. For swaps, the aggregator mode finds the best route across multiple pools. For liquidity provision, set a price range and deposit both tokens.
Active liquidity positions accumulate swap fees in real time. The protocol tracks fee accrual per tick, a design pattern similar to what Ethereum developers documented in the ERC token standards reference.
Lock $KYO tokens for up to 52 weeks to receive veKYO voting power. Longer locks give proportionally more influence over weekly emission votes.
Each epoch, veKYO holders vote to direct $KYO emissions to chosen pools. Voters receive a portion of trading fees from the pools they support — an incentive alignment that keeps governance active.
Type natural language — "swap 2 ETH to USDC" — and the interface parses intent, selects tokens, and pre-fills the form. Useful when managing multiple positions quickly.
Routes trades through the most efficient path across Kyo Finance's own pools and external liquidity sources. Slippage on large orders is noticeably lower compared to single-pool routing.
Move assets between SONEIUM and other EVM networks without leaving the Kyo Finance interface. Bridge status is tracked in real time; no need to monitor external dashboards.
A consolidated dashboard shows all open positions, pending fees, and veKYO lock status. Useful for tracking a complex set of LP ranges and voting allocations at once.
Providers define custom price bands rather than covering the full 0 to ∞ range. Capital sits where trades happen, not where they never go.
Custom slippage tolerance and fee tier selection are available per swap. Advanced users can also set transaction deadlines to prevent stale executions during volatile periods.
Periodic quests reward active protocol participants with bonus $KYO allocations. Participation is permissionless — any wallet completing on-chain actions qualifies automatically.

Kyo Finance is a decentralized liquidity protocol deployed on the SONEIUM network. It combines a vote-escrow governance model with concentrated liquidity pools, allowing token holders to direct emissions and earn protocol fees. Think of it as a more governance-integrated cousin of what Uniswap built on Ethereum — but native to SONEIUM.
Connect a Web3 wallet to the SONEIUM network and open the swap interface. Select input and output tokens, enter an amount, and confirm. The aggregator handles routing automatically.
The Kyo Finance platform's smart contracts have been through independent security review. Core AMM logic follows established concentrated liquidity patterns, and contract addresses are verifiable on the SONEIUM block explorer. Honestly, no protocol is risk-free — but published audits and open-source code make the risk profile much clearer than opaque alternatives.
Yes. Liquidity providers earn swap fees proportional to their in-range position size. veKYO holders also vote each epoch to direct additional $KYO emissions toward specific pools, boosting returns for targeted pairs.
Kyo Finance pairs the capital efficiency of concentrated liquidity with a transparent vote-escrow model. SONEIUM gas costs — shaped by Optimism sequencing and EIP-1559 pricing — are a fraction of Ethereum mainnet costs, keeping small trades economically sensible.
Lock $KYO for a chosen period to receive veKYO. Longer locks yield more voting power. veKYO holders direct weekly emission votes and collect a share of protocol trading fees each epoch.
Select source chain, destination chain, token, and amount inside the Kyo Finance bridge module. The protocol handles the transfer. Completion time varies by network but typically falls within a few minutes under normal conditions.
The primary deployment is on SONEIUM. The bridge module connects to Ethereum mainnet and other EVM-compatible chains. The team behind Kyo Finance evaluates further deployments based on liquidity demand and security readiness. Learn more on the project page.
Swap fees range from 0.01% to 1% depending on pool tier. SONEIUM's sequencer uses EIP-1559-style gas pricing, giving users predictable base fees rather than unpredictable auction spikes common on older networks.
