About Mirror Protocol
Mirror Protocol is a decentralized, community-driven project that allows for the creation of synthetics, which track the price of real world assets.
Mirror’s synthetic mAssets remove traditional financial barriers by enabling any user to own fractional amounts of an asset and to trade on the value of foreign assets. By relying on liquidity pools, Mirror does not need to use centralized order books and can execute transactions in a matter of seconds. MIR is Mirror Protocol’s governance token, so holders can propose and vote on operational changes.
