# Argon Protocol **Overview** Argon protocol is a decentralized, non-custodial, leverage trading protocol where users can gain leveraged exposure on assets. Liquidity providers (LPs) deposit liquidity with leverage in order to earn passive income from trading fees and ART incentives. This liquidity is utilized by the Argon protocol to create leveraged exposure. Realistically, Argon operates as a lending protocol for both trading users and LP users. Here you will find key information about the Argon protocol, how to interact with it, and how to build on top of it. Argon Protocol will be built on BNB Chain first and more L2 chains in the future. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
