# Kyber Network > Liquidity Hub for Crypto Trading and DeFi Kyber Network is a decentralized liquidity hub and DEX aggregator. It lets traders swap tokens across multiple blockchains and gives developers swap and liquidity tools to embed in their applications. Kyber Network is a multi-chain liquidity hub for decentralized trading. It aggregates liquidity from many decentralized exchanges so traders get competitive swap rates, and it gives applications the same routing through developer tools. Its main product, KyberSwap, covers swaps, limit orders, cross-chain swaps, and liquidity provision. An aggregator splits each swap across liquidity sources to reduce slippage, and trades settle on-chain through smart contracts. Liquidity providers deposit tokens into positions that earn swap fees and farming rewards, and limit orders execute without gas fees through a network of takers. Kyber Network is governed by KyberDAO, where KNC holders stake tokens to vote on proposals and earn rewards from trading fees. KyberSwap is used by traders, liquidity providers, and developers who integrate swaps and liquidity features into their applications. - Type: Company - Sector: DeFi - Status: Active - Founded: 2017-08-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/kyber_network ## Products - [KyberSwap](https://thegrid.id/profiles/kyber_network): KyberSwap is a multi-chain DEX aggregator that routes token swaps across many liquidity sources on multiple blockchains.
