Dive deeper into Gearbox

As the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem continues to experience rapid growth, it becomes evident that a lack of composability is hindering its full potential. Composability, the ability to seamlessly integrate and combine various components or protocols, is crucial for the efficient movement of assets across decentralized applications (dApps) and chains. Gearbox (GEAR) emerges as a project that aims to address this fundamental challenge and unlock new possibilities within the DeFi space.

What is Gearbox 

Gearbox is a blockchain-based protocol and DeFi brokerage that is set to disrupt the lending and borrowing landscape. With a strong focus on composability, Gearbox aims to revolutionize how assets are exchanged and leveraged across dApps. By integrating a wide range of tokens into its protocol, Gearbox enables users to seamlessly exchange and interact with diverse assets within the DeFi ecosystem.

One of the standout features of Gearbox is its leverage functionality. Gearbox allows users to utilize leverage not only within Gearbox but also across other platforms, opening up new possibilities for maximizing returns and diversifying strategies.

The Gearbox team 

The Gearbox team is comprised of a group of highly skilled and passionate individuals who are driving the vision and development of the protocol. Led by Mikhail Lazarev, Ivan, and Iigiz Gimaltdinov, the core team members bring a wealth of experience in technology, blockchain, and the internet industry to the project.

How does Gearbox work 

Gearbox addresses the problem of incompatibility among DeFi protocols, which leads to an oversupply of unused capital and assets. The protocol enables users to interact with multiple DeFi services in a seamless and interconnected way. It achieves this by incorporating credit accounts that can act as collateral for various activities, allowing users to conduct transactions across different platforms and protocols effortlessly.

Moreover, Gearbox offers the functionality of margin trading on centralized exchanges, providing users with the opportunity to trade on various platforms. By facilitating interoperability, the project aims to revolutionize the DeFi space and usher in a more integrated and versatile financial ecosystem.

Gearbox’s utility token: GEAR 

Gearbox's utility token, GEAR, follows the ERC-20 standard and plays a central role in the platform's ecosystem. 

GEAR tokenomics 

GEAR has a maximum supply of 10 billion tokens, with a circulating supply of over 1.1 billion tokens. 

GEAR use cases 

The GEAR token has multiple use cases within the Gearbox ecosystem. Firstly, it enables seamless transfer and exchange of assets across various dApps. Secondly, GEAR serves as a governance token, giving holders proportional voting rights on proposed projects and platform decisions through the project’s decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Lastly, GEAR can be staked by users to earn additional rewards, providing an incentive for long-term participation and engagement in the Gearbox network.

Distribution of GEAR 

Gear is distributed as follows:

  • 46.71 percent: DAO fund
  • 20 percent: Founding team
  • 11.52 percent: Treasury
  • 9.20 percent: SAFT
  • 7.47 percent: Community
  • 2.77 percent: DAO Round 1
  • 1.28 percent: External contributors 
  • 1.06 percent: DAO Round 2

Gearbox’s expansion plans 

Gearbox has ambitious expansion plans in the DeFi lending and borrowing industry, focusing on three key areas: interoperability, GEAR use cases, and security. Through these expansion plans, Gearbox seeks to drive innovation, foster adoption, and establish itself as a leading player in the DeFi lending and borrowing industry while offering users enhanced functionality, security, and opportunities for financial growth.

Consensus Mechanism
The crypto-asset's Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, introduced with The Merge in 2022, replaces mining with validator staking. Validators must stake at least 32 ETH every block a validator is randomly chosen to propose the next block. Once proposed the other validators verify the blocks integrity. The network operates on a slot and epoch system, where a new block is proposed every 12 seconds, and finalization occurs after two epochs (~12.8 minutes) using Casper-FFG. The Beacon Chain coordinates validators, while the fork-choice rule (LMD-GHOST) ensures the chain follows the heaviest accumulated validator votes. Validators earn rewards for proposing and verifying blocks, but face slashing for malicious behavior or inactivity. PoS aims to improve energy efficiency, security, and scalability, with future upgrades like Proto-Danksharding enhancing transaction efficiency.
Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees
The crypto-asset's PoS system secures transactions through validator incentives and economic penalties. Validators stake at least 32 ETH and earn rewards for proposing blocks, attesting to valid ones, and participating in sync committees. Rewards are paid in newly issued ETH and transaction fees. Under EIP-1559, transaction fees consist of a base fee, which is burned to reduce supply, and an optional priority fee (tip) paid to validators. Validators face slashing if they act maliciously and incur penalties for inactivity. This system aims to increase security by aligning incentives while making the crypto-asset's fee structure more predictable and deflationary during high network activity.

Energy consumption sources and methodologies
The energy consumption of this asset is aggregated across multiple components: To determine the energy consumption of a token, the energy consumption of the network(s) ethereum is calculated first. For the energy consumption of the token, a fraction of the energy consumption of the network is attributed to the token, which is determined based on the activity of the crypto-asset within the network. When calculating the energy consumption, the Functionally Fungible Group Digital Token Identifier (FFG DTI) is used - if available - to determine all implementations of the asset in scope. The mappings are updated regularly, based on data of the Digital Token Identifier Foundation. The information regarding the hardware used and the number of participants in the network is based on assumptions that are verified with best effort using empirical data. In general, participants are assumed to be largely economically rational. As a precautionary principle, we make assumptions on the conservative side when in doubt, i.e. making higher estimates for the adverse impacts.
