Balancer Pool是有着自平衡属性的自动化做市交易协议，这些属性可生成加权投资组合和价格传感器。Balancer颠覆了指数基金的概念：无需向投资组合经理支付费用来重新平衡您的投资组合，而是从交易员那里收取费用，交易员通过跟随套利机会来重新平衡您的投资组合，获取更多投资机会。

Balancer is a DeFi protocol that provides permissionless technology to streamline AMM development for developers and empower liquidity providers with an ever-expanding DEX product suite. This is made possible by unique ‘Vault’ architecture that formally defines the requirements of a custom pool and shifts core design patterns out of the pool into a separate ‘singleton contract’. With both internally developed pool types such as Weighted Pools, Boosted Pools, and LVR mitigating stableswaps, and also externally developed pools such as Elliptical Concentrated Liquidity, CoW AMMs, and FxPools, Balancer has arisen to be a focal source of fungible, yield-bearing, and MEV-mitigated liquidity.
