Andre Cronje, the developer of Yearn Finance, launched the Keep3r Network on October 28, which was designed to solve the current problems with complex systems of smart contracts. The mission of the Keep3r Network is to become a decentralized ecosystem for projects to find ‘Keepers’ that will help with their upkeep. The KPR token started trading on Wednesday, and so far it has seen a massive price explosion of 2,000%.

Projects wishing Keepers to perform duties simply need to submit their contract to Keep3r Network, once reviewed and approved by a bonded Keeper, Keepers can begin fulfilling the required work.

The KPR token is used to reward Keepers. Additionally, as certain jobs carry financial risks, only Keepers that have a minimum financial bond will be able to execute them. Of course, governance over the protocol also happens directly through KPR holders.
