# IceCreamSwap

> The best swaps on any chain

IceCreamSwap is a multichain DeFi protocol that lets users swap tokens, provide liquidity, bridge assets, and earn rewards across multiple blockchains.

IceCreamSwap targets DeFi traders and liquidity providers operating across various blockchain networks. Users can route swaps through a DEX aggregator that searches many exchanges for optimal pricing, provide liquidity to earn fees and ICE token rewards, and transfer assets cross-chain using a bridge with a built-in native token faucet. The protocol deploys Uniswap V3 smart contracts and also includes a launchpad, KYC verification, and token creation tools.

## Products

- [IceCreamSwap](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): IceCreamSwap is a multichain DEX deployed across multiple EVM-compatible blockchains using Uniswap V3 concentrated liquidity contracts. Users can swap tokens, provide liquidity to earn trading fees, stake LP tokens in liquidity farms to earn ICE tokens, and stake ICE tokens for additional yield. The platform integrates the Nordstern.Finance DEX aggregator, which routes swap orders across all on-chain liquidity sources on a given chain to find optimal execution paths, including extracting arbitrage opportunities within trades. Additional tools include an analytics dashboard, a token locker, and a token deployer for creating new EVM tokens. (Decentralised Exchange, Live, Main Product)
- [IceCreamSwap Bridge](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): IceCreamSwap Bridge is a cross-chain asset transfer protocol supporting multiple EVM-compatible networks. It includes a built-in gas faucet that automatically distributes small amounts of native tokens to users bridging to a destination chain without an existing balance, covering initial transaction costs. Bridging fees consist of a fixed per-chain amount plus 0.5% of the transferred amount. Tokens bridged to the Bitgert network through this bridge are issued as i-Tokens, which are 1:1 pegged to their source assets and redeemable at any time. (Bridge, Live)
- [IceCreamSwap Launchpad](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): IceCreamSwap Launchpad is a token sale platform for new blockchain projects. Project owners, who must complete KYC verification, can create and manage token fundraising campaigns. Users can discover and participate in project launches through the platform interface. (Launch Pad, Live)
- [IceCreamSwap KYC](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): IceCreamSwap KYC is an on-chain identity verification service that issues ICEKYC, a non-transferable soulbound NFT, upon successful identity verification through a third-party partner. Project owners are required to complete KYC before listing tokens or launching projects on IceCreamSwap. Verified wallet addresses and token contracts receive a KYC badge that is publicly verifiable through the KYC Checker tool. Verified project owners can also delegate their KYC status to their token contracts via the KYC Delegator tool. (Decentralised Identity, Live)
- [IceCream RPC](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): IceCream RPC provides hosted Remote Procedure Call endpoints for the Bitgert (Chain ID 32520), Core (Chain ID 1116), and XDC (Chain ID 50) blockchain networks. Developers and users can configure wallets and applications to connect to these networks using IceCreamSwap's RPC URLs in place of default public endpoints. (RPC Provider, Live)

## Assets

- [IceCreamSwap Token (ICE)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): ICE is the governance token of the IceCreamSwap DEX. It is used for staking to earn passive income and as a farming reward distributed to liquidity providers across supported chains. The token has a deflationary mechanism supported by fee-based buybacks, with a total supply capped at 10 million across all chain deployments. (Governance)
- [StakedCore (SCORE)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): SCORE is a liquid staking token issued by IceCreamSwap representing CORE staked on Core DAO. When users wrap CORE into SCORE, the underlying CORE enters Core DAO's Delegated Proof of Stake component of the Satoshi Plus consensus, with staking rewards automatically compounded into the token's price. As a standard ERC-20 token, SCORE maintains DeFi composability while the underlying CORE generates staking returns. (Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs))
- [IceCreamSwap KYC (ICEKYC)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/icecreamswap): ICEKYC is a soulbound NFT issued by IceCreamSwap upon completion of KYC verification. It is non-transferrable and serves as on-chain proof of identity verification, required for project owners listing tokens or launching projects on the platform. Being non-transferrable prevents users from sharing or selling verified status across multiple wallet addresses. (NFT)
