    Franklin, or FLy, is the native token of VRM Ecosystem. In this article, we are going to take a look at the story of FLy, the team behind the token, VRM and BO. We will look at their ambitions and achievements and take a deep dive into what is next for FLy.

    Conceived out of necessity
    First came VRM. Andrei Grachev and Vladimir Demin came up with the idea of a large trading company in April 2018. The idea was to create a company, where successful trading teams would have the opportunity to trade on large exchanges with special fees and conditions. This idea was brought to life and improved over time, it evolved. The company’s trading volume was $440 million just in its first year. The trading volume was only increasing. The average daily trading volume is $13,830 million in 2021.
    BO: As VRM was growing, it became clear that the crypto market needed a proper dark pool service, which allows institutional players to trade using large sums of money without any effect on market price. That’s the aim and the initial idea of the BO platform. BO was created to provide institutional oriented services such as dark pool, liquidity pool solutions, market making and order flow execution.
    FLy token was designed to be the utility token to serve VRM and BO. The FLy token was built as an ERC-20 token, because of Ethereum’s many features and opportunities for DEFI projects. Then the FLy token entered a new network – BSC and now there’s no limit!
    The FLy token was created out of a need for a token that could serve as the backbone for financial services offered by BO. The token will serve many purposes across the ecosystem and it offers holders a full range of CeFi and DeFI services: launchpad, staking, liquidity mining, escrow service with more to come such as the NFT marketplace, margin trading, fixed income products, funding to name but a few.
    There are many more benefits and we encourage you to read more about FLy on the official website.
    Having entered the market a few years ago now, FLy has recently undergone many changes, upgrades and additions to its infrastructure in an effort to grow with the market and mature into a rich featured financial offering. The market volatility has, in a way, spurred the team on to now provide more stable and useful products. The VRM ecosystem offers professional services and solutions for b2b and b2c clients. VRM is made up of VRM Quant, VRM Research, BO and the FLy token.
