PERA FINANCE A Revolutionary Trading & Yield Farming Protocol
The Potential of DeFiDecentralized finance (DeFi) is a new space that allows cryptocurrencies to be used to provide financial services. It is expected to be a formidable competitor to the traditional finance world with its fast, secure, flexible and development-oriented infrastructure.
*Charts above illustrate market capitalization comparisons between financial services, crypto market and DeFi. They clearly show that DeFi is still in its infancy and there is considerable room for growth.

Pera Finance rewards users according to their contribution to the ecosystem by using different yield strategies. Users are rewarded for providing liquidity, volume, and stability.
The Pera Finance Yield Ecosystem
Transaction Fee RewardsEvery on-chain PERA transaction (transfer, trade, or liquidity addition/ removal) generates a 2 % transaction fee. All transaction fees are distributed to PERA Holders, Traders, and Liquidity Providers.
Daily emission is 70.000 PERA. All emission rewards are distributed to PERA Traders and Liquidity Providers.
Pera Trading Protocol will bring multi-asset yields to the protocol through ecosystem partnerships.
Pera Finance combines transaction fee-based and emission-based yield farming methods with a fully-decentralized trading competition, creating a versatile and sustainable DeFi platform.

PERA smart contract has a unique sorting algorithm design. It enables a new type of trader-oriented yield farming protocol that rewards PERA traders for generating volume which is the first in the DeFi space. Pera Finance’s one of a kind filter-and-sort approach brings a high performance and low gas sorting solution that is independent of the size of the list.
Advantages of PERA Sorting Algorithm
Computational complexity refers to the amount of resources required to run the code. Existing sorting algorithms carry an inherent risk of unknown complexity that makes it impossible to integrate them into coding environments such as solidity, where the gas-efficiency is a crucial design parameter.
The performance of a sorting algorithm is directly dependent on the list size. Sorting on a list of unknown size that increases over time (for example: number of traders that interact with a smart contract on a given day) may lead to failure of the transactions due to the block gas limit in solidity.
PERA sorting algorithm has constant complexity even if the list size is unknown. Maximum gas fee per each PERA transaction is fixed and quite low considering the high capability of the PERA smart contract.
The performance of the PERA sorting algorithm is designed to be independent of the list size, making it highly scalable. In this way, the PERA sorting algorithm can sort a higher number of users out of a list of unknown size.
The amount of extra memory required by a sorting algorithm especially in the blockchain architecture is an important consideration where increased space complexity (measure of the amount of working storage an algorithm needs) may require extra temporary arrays or other solutions.
PERA sorting algorithm uses a unique filtering method on every transaction, making the size of the list predetermined and thus minimizes the memory requirements. With this approach, it is possible to sort bigger lists for many other use cases.P8
PERA token is the proof of concept of the Pera Finance’s Trading Protocol which will extend our unique approach and services to the whole DeFi space. PERA’s modular and scalable sorting solution opens a new era for the existing or new DeFi projects and DEXes for a more sustainable and robust ecosystem.

How Pera Finance solves the problems of DeFiIn the DeFi space, yield farming rewards are usually created to boost supply side liquidity via unsustainable emission or transaction fee-based reward mechanisms. Pera Finance offers a hybrid farming mechanism that rewards demand-side liquidity and allows yield farming (trade farming) for traders.
No Incentive for Traders
Farming rewards are generally shared among liquidity providers (LPs). There aren’t any platforms that create incentives for traders, who are those who create the rewards for LPs.
Unsustainable Farming
Uncontrolled emission rewards lower token values, while transaction fee rewards that do not promote volume creation make yield farming unsustainable.
Insufficient Income
DeFi protocols that create single-layer yields by using only their native tokens are not suitable to provide sustainable yield farming rewards.
Bad Tokenomics
Many DeFi projects have unclear token economics and financial models, hindering their viability.
PERA Trading Competition
All PERA traders can farm yields via trading for the first time regardless of price changes.
Hybrid Farming Rewards
Pera Finance offers both emission-based and Tx fee-based yield farming rewards, helping to create a sustainable reward structure.
Dual Farming
PERA stakers can earn PERA holder rewards in addition to multi-asset yields through ecosystem partnerships.
PERA Financial Model
Pera Finance has been created based on real market data and analytical financial models featuring multiple market scenarios.

Pera Finance unites traders and liquidity providers, creating a DeFi ecosystem based on modern macroeconomics and game theory principles. The PERA token has been rigorously tested via analytical financial models in terms of yield generating capacity (APY) for PERA Liquidity Providers, PERA Holders, PERA Traders and PERA Stakers.
The PERA Financial Model
PERA brings liquidity providers and traders together around a yield-farming system based on a decentralized trading competition, creating rewards for both.
PERA rewards volume generation itself via the PERA daily trading competition, adding a new dimension to the trading experience independently of price.
Pera Finance uses emission rewards to generate liquidity and incentivise trading, in order to create transaction volume and increase the circulation velocity of PERA.
The PERA financial model has been created by using the market data of 11 different DeFi projects from launch day to December 2020.*
Various DeFi projects have been chosen for our financial model based on metrics like market cap, daily volume etc. in order to use a wide range of data sources.
The data on historical price action in different market conditions has been aggregated to estimate the potential returns of PERA across a range of scenarios.

Pera Finance & Binance Smart ChainPERA Finance offers a series of cutting-edge features that will greatly boost the volume, capabilities, and user experience of Binance Smart Chain (BSC):
PERA’s pioneering decentralized trading competition will boost BSC’s trading volume and user numbers. DEXes on BSC will be also the first to have an on-chain trading competition.
The PERA Trading Competition
PERA’s tests generated returns between 107% and 510%, independently of market conditions. This represents excellent performance for BSC users, to be added to substantial rewards for top traders.
Excellent Returns
By combining emission and transaction fee rewards, PERA stimulates liquidity, trading activity, and circulation velocity in the ecosystem. Rewards increases as volumes increases, creating a positive feedback loop.
Unique Yield Farming Rewards
The unique design of PERA staking rewards allows users to farm both PERA transaction fee rewards and multi-asset yields through ecosystem partnerships- an added degree of flexibility for BSC users.
The PERA financial model has been created using real market data from 11 different DeFi projects and tested under different market conditions – for the long-term sustainability of our yield-farming system.

APPENDIX
Pera is the world's first DeFi project to have an on-chain trading competition. Pera yield farming mechanism is designed around the trading competition using game theory principles to increase PERA's daily volume and yield farming rewards.
PERA Decentralized Daily Trading Competition
How are the Competition Rewards Created?0.5% of the transaction cuts received from PERA transactions are pooled for the trading competition rewards.
19.600 PERA is minted daily and added to the trading competition rewards.
Trader-Liquidity Provider Relationship
Deductions from the traders’ early reward claims are distributed to the liquidity providers. By doing so, selling pressure that the liquidity providers should absorb is balanced through the pressure makers’ (traders) deductions.
Trading Competition-Volume Relationship
It has been observed that trading competitions held at central exchanges significantly increase the daily volume and price of the projects that organize the competition.

PERA Implementation
PERA rewards volume generation itself via the PERA daily trading competition, adding a new dimension to the trading experience independently of price.
PERA Implementation
Liquidity providers need active traders that use liquidity pools to generate market fees and yield farming rewards.
Traders need large liquidity pools in order to make slippage-free transactions.
Liquidity Providers Traders
TradersTrading is a zero-sum game. One person’s loss is another person’s gain. For this reason, every single trader aims to maximize their gains by following price action and optimizing their entry and exit points.
Quantity Theory of Money:If the velocity of money increases total economic output increases as well.
Macroeconomics Argument PERA ImplementationPera Finance uses emission rewards to generate liquidity and incentivise trading, in order to create transaction volume and increase the circulation velocity of PERA. As the PERA volume increases, the yield farming rewards increase at the same rate, creating a positive feedback loop.

The PERA financial model has been created by using the market data of 11 different DeFi projects from launch day to December 2020.
In the financial analysis, the rapid price movement of the crypto markets in January-February 2021 have been excluded in order to keep the consistency of the calculations since this sudden increase doesn’t represent the general market cycles realistically.
Various DeFi projects have been chosen for our financial model based on metrics like market cap, daily volume etc. in order to use a wide range of data sources.
Chosen Projects: Uniswap (UNI), Sushiswap (SUSHI), Hegic (HEGIC), cVault.finance (CORE), Harvest Finance (FARM), BarnBridge (BOND), YFDAI.FINANCE (YF-DAI), Polkastarter (POLS), Pickle Finance (PICKLE), pNetwork (PNT), Ampleforth (AMPL)
The data on historical price action in different market conditions has been aggregated to estimate the potential returns of PERA across a range of scenarios.
Market Conditions: Rising market (bull), falling market (bear), non-trending/ sideways market, and market that is correcting.

PERA Token Financial Model ParametersFinancial model simulations are used to test the mechanical structure of PERA token with 5 different market models over 11 different projects. The input parameters of the model are the daily price changes and volume / market capitalization ratios of the projects that are taken as reference.
Daily price changes for 5 different market models, that is the first input parameter to the PERA Token model, are calculated as the average of individual price changes of the combined projects. Second input parameter, daily volume, is calculated based on the combined projects’ volume / market cap ratios. In order to ignore the volume anomalies in the first days of the projects and to remain more conservative in model tests, volume calculations were adjusted by time-weighted average of volume / market cap ratios.P25
