# INTRODUCTION

The greater ecosystem of decentralized finance (DeFi), particularly the yield aggregators, experienced very significant growth in 2020. From there, optimization opportunities emerged that the team felt poised to innovate upon.

The AlphaSwap was created to provide users with an easy way to automatically compound the returns of their investments made through the APTOS.

**Optimizing returns with the AlphaSwap**

The yield farming service provided by AlphaSwap is enabled by the use of ‘Pools’, in which individuals stake their crypto tokens.

Blockchain is undergoing mass adoption right now. New projects are springing up everywhere and advertising high returns. However, most of them don't know their way around very well and invest in black sheep.

This is exactly the point where AlphaSwap comes into play. The AlphaSwap is an all-seeing eye, which scans all projects on the whole market and finds out the most profitable farms / pools by different criteria, like yield and audits.

This automation makes it possible to achieve higher returns. Because the AlphaSwap always jumps to the current best pool, which is currently on the market. This has the advantage that you can have your money working for you in a completely automated way, without having to log in every day. In addition, the daily profits are claimed and reinvested. So that the compound interest effect can work for you in a completely automated way.

All this is written down in a Smart Contract. The Smart Contract can be thought of as an if-then function. This has the advantage that no third person has access to your investment and only you keep the access.

So why leave your money in the bank or the coins in your wallet, when you can have your money working for you today, independent of location, through Horus Farm.
