Getting Started
What is Fulcrom Finance and how does it work?
Fulcrom Finance is a decentralized perpetual exchange deployed on the Cronos blockchain. It enables traders to open leveraged long and short positions on a wide range of crypto assets with up to 200x leverage. Unlike centralized exchanges, Fulcrom Finance is non-custodial — your funds are controlled by smart contracts and you retain full ownership at all times. Prices are fed by Pyth Network, ensuring accurate and reliable market data. The platform is powered by Cronos Labs and designed for minimal fees and low price impact, making it one of the most efficient DeFi trading venues on Cronos.
How do I start trading on Fulcrom Finance?

Visit the Fulcrom Finance platform, click "Connect" in the top navigation bar, and select your wallet. Once connected, navigate to the Trade section, choose a trading pair (e.g. BTC/USD or ETH/USD), select your leverage, position size, and whether you want to go Long or Short. Confirm the transaction in your wallet and your position will be opened. You can monitor all your open positions from the Trade and Dashboard sections.
Which blockchain does Fulcrom Finance run on?
Fulcrom Finance is built on the Cronos blockchain (Chain ID: 25), developed by Cronos Labs. Cronos is an EVM-compatible chain that offers fast transaction speeds and low gas fees, making it ideal for high-frequency trading applications like Fulcrom Finance. Price data is provided by the Pyth Network oracle, which delivers high-fidelity, low-latency price feeds from institutional-grade data sources. To interact with Fulcrom Finance, you will need CRO tokens to pay for gas fees on the Cronos network.
Trading & Leverage
What is the maximum leverage on Fulcrom Finance?
Fulcrom Finance supports perpetual futures trading with leverage of up to 200x, depending on the asset and market conditions. Higher leverage amplifies both potential gains and potential losses. Fulcrom Finance recommends that inexperienced traders start with lower leverage settings and familiarize themselves with liquidation mechanics before using high leverage. Always use stop-loss orders and manage your risk carefully. The platform provides real-time margin and liquidation price calculations to help you make informed decisions.
What trading pairs are available on Fulcrom Finance?
Fulcrom Finance offers a comprehensive selection of perpetual trading pairs, including major cryptocurrencies such as BTC/USD, ETH/USD, SOL/USD, XRP/USD, CRO/USD, BNB/USD, and many more. The platform also supports trending altcoins including WIF/USD, SUI/USD, NEAR/USD, PEPE/USD, DOGE/USD, SHIB/USD, ADA/USD, UNI/USD, AAVE/USD, HBAR/USD, PENGU/USD, TRUMP/USD, PUMP/USD, LION/USD, and PAXG/USD (gold-backed). Fulcrom Finance regularly adds new trading pairs based on community demand and market activity.
How are Fulcrom Finance trading fees calculated?
Fulcrom Finance charges minimal trading fees designed to minimize price impact for traders. Fees are collected from open and close position actions, as well as from ongoing borrow fees on leveraged positions. A significant portion of all fees collected are distributed directly to FUL token stakers and FLP liquidity providers as real yield — not inflationary emissions. This creates a sustainable fee-sharing economy where active users of Fulcrom Finance are rewarded for their participation in the ecosystem.
What happens if my position gets liquidated on Fulcrom Finance?
A liquidation occurs on Fulcrom Finance when your position's collateral falls below the maintenance margin requirement due to adverse price movement. When a position is liquidated, it is automatically closed by the protocol to protect the FLP liquidity pool from losses. The remaining collateral after fees and losses is returned to your wallet. Fulcrom Finance displays your estimated liquidation price at all times so you can manage risk proactively. It is strongly recommended to use appropriate position sizing and to monitor open positions regularly.
Tokens & Earning
What is the FUL token and how do I earn with it on Fulcrom Finance?
FUL is the native utility and governance token of Fulcrom Finance. By staking FUL tokens, you earn a share of the trading fees generated by the platform — this is real yield paid in USD-denominated assets, not inflationary token emissions. The current FUL staking APR is approximately 21%. Additionally, FUL holders participate in governance decisions that shape the future direction of Fulcrom Finance. You can buy FUL tokens on supported DEXes on the Cronos network and stake them directly through the Earn section of the Fulcrom Finance platform.
What is FLP and how does liquidity provision work on Fulcrom Finance?
FLP is the liquidity provider token of Fulcrom Finance. The FLP pool is a multi-asset liquidity pool containing BTC, ETH, stablecoins, and other crypto assets. By depositing supported tokens into the pool, you receive FLP tokens that represent your share of the pool. FLP holders earn fees from all trading activity on Fulcrom Finance proportional to their pool share. The current FLP APR is approximately 8%. The FLP pool acts as the counterparty to all leveraged trades on Fulcrom Finance, and its composition is rebalanced dynamically based on trading activity. You can view the full pool index and composition via the Analytics section.
Does Fulcrom Finance have a referral or rewards program?
Yes, Fulcrom Finance offers a referral program that rewards both referrers and referred traders. When you share your unique referral code, traders who use it receive a fee discount on their trades, while you earn rebates from their trading volume. The more active your referred traders are, the more you earn. Additionally, Fulcrom Finance periodically runs trading competitions and events where participants can win prizes based on their trading performance. Check the Events section of the platform for the latest competitions and reward opportunities.
Security & Safety
Is Fulcrom Finance safe to use? How are smart contracts secured?
Fulcrom Finance is a non-custodial protocol, meaning the platform never holds your private keys or custodies your assets outside of smart contract interactions. All Fulcrom Finance smart contracts deployed on Cronos have undergone security audits. Despite these precautions, DeFi protocols carry inherent risks including smart contract vulnerabilities, oracle manipulation, and market volatility. Users should only invest funds they can afford to lose and should thoroughly review the Terms & Conditions before using the platform. Fulcrom Finance also maintains a bug bounty program to encourage responsible disclosure of any discovered vulnerabilities.
