What is Contango?

Contango builds perps via looping on money markets. Deep liquidity is sourced on money markets, where interest rates produce less volatile funding rates. An intuitive trading interface welcomes advanced _traders_ ready to trade with size, seasoned _loopers_ looking for better monitoring tools, and _degens_ eager to farm rewards on money markets.
