❄️Cryo
What is Cryo? ❄️
CRYO is an experiment in decentralized finance on Avalanche. The Cryo Protocol was born to resist hyperinflation — but at a cost. Every block, the CRYO supply is slowly frozen away, decreasing by 0.001% per block, or roughly 7% daily. As time passes, circulating CRYO melts into nothingness.
What consequences does this have?
The rebase era is gone — Cryo ushers in a debase-driven economy. As supply vanishes and holders refuse to sell, CRYO becomes more scarce, increasing its perceived value. The same mechanics apply to liquidity pools: less CRYO in LPs over time, yet the same AVAX remains. Supply melts, but the foundation stays.
If this makes sense to you… you’ve been cryo-pilled.

How do we protect our CRYO?
To defend against total melt, you can deposit CRYO into frozen Vaults. There are three vaults, each with different levels of protection and reward:
🧊 Cryo Core – low commitment, low reward. Great for quick rotation.
❄️ Glacier Rift – high rewards, but bigger locking time.
🧱 Permafrost – the deepest freeze. Highest protection, but no rewards coming from emissions
A total of 10 million CRYO per block is emitted:
Cryo Core: 10% of $CRYO emission
Glacier Rift: 90% of $CRYO emissions
Permafrost: 0% emission 0% debase, full protection of your staked $CRYO without emissions

The emissions don’t cancel out the debasement — but they help. The earlier you act, the more you can preserve. Adapt or melt.
