FAQ
Q: What are Atomic NFTs?
A: Atomic NFTs are non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and native to Arweave. They use a specific standard to store media assets and contract metadata. These assets and data are permanently stored under a unique identifier and cannot be changed.
The Crypto Slang Gang (tenth group) and Bird Song (twelfth group) within everPay NFTs are both Atomic NFTs. They can be exchanged with each other in all compatible applications.
Q: What is Permaswap, and how is it related to everPay?
A: Permaswap is the first real-time cross-chain DEX in the Arweave ecosystem, offering features such as 0 gas fees, 0% slippage, and 100% permanent.
Permaswap is built on the everPay payment protocol, and its atomic orders are executed in real-time by everPay (detailed in the Permaswap whitepaper). Both everPay and Permaswap are products developed by parent company everVision on the Arweave network, and they work together to empower everPay NFTs and build a robust financial ecosystem.
Q: What is a Permaswap Router node, and what is its purpose?
A: Router nodes play a crucial role in Permaswap as they generate trade orders. When a user initiates a transaction request, Router nodes use collected liquidity pool (LP) information to generate quotes to be returned to the user. Once the user confirms and signs the transaction, the Router node notifies the respective LPs to sign. After all signatures are complete, the Router node sends the order for execution by everPay.
Becoming a Permaswap Router node allows for earning a certain percentage of transaction fees.
Q: When can everPay NFT holders start mining on Permaswap?
A: Permaswap is currently in beta version and has not issued the PSN token yet. Permaswap's official team has not disclosed a specific timeline, allowing ample time for everPay NFTs to circulate in the secondary market.
Permaswap is gradually launching new token assets and continuously improving and testing the performance of its products. Stay updated by following the official Permaswap Twitter for the latest project updates and important announcements.
