About Fei Protocol

Fei Protocol (FEI) was an algorithmic stablecoin launched on Ethereum in April 2021 designed to maintain a $1 peg through incentive mechanisms without fully collateralizing reserves. The protocol introduced innovative concepts including Protocol-Controlled Value (PCV) and Bonding Curves to stabilize the FEI price. However, the protocol encountered significant challenges maintaining the peg during market volatility, leading to a merger with Rari Capital in January 2022. Combined as 'Rari Fei Merge,' the protocol attempted to integrate Rari's lending protocols with FEI's stablecoin mechanisms. The merged entity ceased operations in November 2022 following the Rari hack where 80 million FEI were stolen, making both FEI and Rari tokens defunct. Today FEI remains as a historical token on the blockchain but the protocol is no longer operational. SyntheticSwap allows trading of inactive tokens for informational and exit purposes.
