what's cronos?

Cronos is an EVM-compatible blockchain developed by Crypto.com, designed to bring real-world finance on-chain for billions of users through decentralized applications in DeFi, NFTs, and tokenization. It emphasizes scalability, low transaction fees, and compliance, making it suitable for institutional adoption and everyday users. Key features include support for lending and borrowing protocols like Tectonic and Morpho-powered vaults, stablecoin markets, and wrapped blue-chip assets, enabling seamless integration with Crypto.com's ecosystem of over 150 million users. The chain powers initiatives such as DeFi Mullet for earn and borrow suites, and recent expansions include AI-readiness and partnerships with AWS for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization. Cronos also facilitates governance through its native token CRO, with ongoing roadmaps focusing on on-chain dominance, ETF integrations, and community-driven incentives like staking rewards and campaigns.
