# Why you care

## Your dollars work harder on World

On World, every dollar works harder, which means you can make more money for less risk.

Read [ATLAS - World's Risk Engine](/tl-dr-unique-features/atlas.md) to see examples and understand the underlying mechanics.

World is deployed fully on-chain. There is no backend nor app-chain; World does not secretly control any part of the execution. World minimizes counterparty risk by maximizing transparency. The smart contract code will be made publicly available once liquidity is bootstrapped. Trading is fully permissionless.

## Unique Benefits

Unique benefits of World include:

* Use yield bearing tokens as collateral.
* Never sell your crypto - use it as collateral to trade.
* Use certain vault tokens as collateral.
* Earn yield on your collateral by lending it out.
* Borrow under-collateralized.
* Fixed rate, fixed 10 day term loans.
* Safely take more leverage by hedging portfolio level risk.
* Safer liquidation levels than other perp DEXs for the same portfolio.
* Make more money as a market maker. Quote above your balance by borrowing (i.e. "leverage on spot").
* Capture market arbitrage in 1 click. No more need for looping on over-collateralized venues.
* Avoid triggering potential taxable events by borrowing and trading with the borrowed capital. Not financial or tax advice.
