Overview
Loopring's primary goal is to reduce user reliance on centralized exchanges or other trustworthy third parties, as well as to enable global liquid markets. Loopring aims to do this by rewarding ecosystem players to execute decentralized exchange services, with trades handled by non-custodial smart contracts.

Technology
It uses Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Proofs to enable anonymous and trustless transactions. ZK Proofs are a method of authenticating information without exchanging exact details.
Loopring is now available on the Ethereum and Neo blockchains, with intentions to expand to the Qtum blockchain in the future. Each network has its own coin: LRC for Ethereum and LRN for Neo, respectively; the Qtum network token will be called LRQ when it launches.
The hash functions of the underlying blockchain platforms safeguard these tokens: LRC uses Ethereum's Ethash, LRN uses Neo's SHA256 and RIPEMD160, and LRQ uses Qtum's proof-of-stake PoSv3 algorithm.
Use of Native tokens in the ecosystem:
The Loopring coin (LRC) is the native currency of the Loopring protocol, which is a blockchain-based initiative that lets developers create their own decentralized exchanges.
