# Pools

<mark style="color:green;">**EasyX**</mark> implements a highly innovative <mark style="color:green;">**tri-pool model**</mark> where the tokens available for trading are divided into three separate pools based on their market cap (MC) and volatility.

This <mark style="color:green;">**tri-pool**</mark> approach offers additional security by <mark style="color:green;">**reducing the overall exposure**</mark> of the pools in the event of external attacks or ecosystem-wide <mark style="color:orange;">**Black Swan**</mark> events. By diversifying the tokens into different pools based on their characteristics, the impact of adverse events can be contained, providing a more robust and resilient trading environment.

<mark style="color:green;">**EasyX**</mark> currently operates three **USDC** pools, each designed to cater to different risk profiles:

1. <mark style="color:green;">**Bluechip Pool**</mark>: This pool is dedicated to trading the "<mark style="color:green;">**safest**</mark>" assets, which have the highest market cap and the lowest expected volatility. These assets are considered to be more stable and less risky.
2. <mark style="color:green;">**Intermediate Pool**</mark>: This pool focuses on trading (TBD) Tokens which have a market cap and volatility that fall between the high-risk and low-risk categories. Additionally, this pool is fully exposed to the assets and trades of the <mark style="color:green;">**Bluechip Pool**</mark>.
3. <mark style="color:green;">**Degen Pool**</mark>: The final pool is dedicated to trading the <mark style="color:orange;">**highest-risk**</mark> assets. These assets generally have lower market caps and can exhibit more extreme price volatility in either direction. Similar to the <mark style="color:green;">**Altcoin Pool**</mark>, the **Degen Pool** is fully exposed to both the assets and trades of the <mark style="color:green;">**Altcoin**</mark> and <mark style="color:green;">**Bluechip**</mark> Pools.
