Balancer is an automated market maker and decentralized exchange platform that was launched in March 2020 on the Ethereum blockchain network. This platform is designed as an open and accessible alternative to centralized exchanges and allows users to trade Ethereum (ETH) and assets based on the ERC-20 standard in a trustless and permissionless environment. An automated market maker is a decentralized exchange that uses a mathematical formula to price assets. In other words, unlike traditional exchanges that use an order book and bid/ask system, in automatic market makers, asset prices are determined based on a price algorithm.

Balancer allows users to exchange supported tokens, create a liquidity pool in order to add liquidity to the balancer protocol, and also invest in existing pools for yield farming of transactions. The Balancer cryptocurrency network has been developing since 2018 and its bronze version was launched in 2020. Since then, Balancer has become one of the top 15 decentralized exchange platforms on the Ethereum network in terms of transaction volume and one of the top 10 largest decentralized applications (DApps) running on the Ethereum network in terms of total asset value locked. 

Yes. According to the Payment Services Amendment Bill by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), Digital payment tokens (DPT) or cryptocurrencies are not denominated in any currency but can be used as a form of payment. According to the Managing Director of the Monetary Authority of Singapore, cryptocurrencies can take the form of assets or items of value and can be legally managed through transactions.

Yes and no. According to the E-Tax Guide by the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS), the Singaporean Government taxes crypto depending on the kind of activity that you are doing with the tokens. The profit made through crypto trading in the regular course of business would be subject to income tax. Because of this, any losses and gains you make must be recorded on an annual tax return so that you can report them to the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS).

But, according to the mentioned document by IRAS, since there are no capital gainsگ taxations in Singapore, capital gains obtained from the purchase of cryptocurrencies for long-term investment reasons are not subject to taxation in Singapore. In simple terms, if you buy cryptocurrency as a long-term investment and sell it with profit, you will probably be exempt from tax, but if you trade on a regular basis, you will be subject to Income Tax.
