About Mean Finance

Mean Finance is the state-of-the-art DCA protocol. It enables users to set up actions like “Swap 10 USDC for WBTC every day, for 30 days”. Users can create these actions between almost all ERC20 tokens, in the frequency of their choosing. These token swaps will then occur regardless of the asset’s price and at regular intervals, reducing the impact of volatility on investments.

The Meta Aggregator uses advanced algorithms which do the job for the user of searching all available DEXs and routes, ensuring one always gets the best and more cost effective route. Users can be confident that they will never overpay for a trade. The process is fast, and the user experience is smooth as all the complexity is extracted away.
