Binance LaunchPool: A Secure Way to Farm New Assets

In the months of August and September, the crypto exchange of Binance has ventured into the DeFi industry by listing multiple DeFi tokens. To keep up with the warp speed at which Yield Farming is evolving, the exchange decided to launch Binance Launchpool as a secure way for investors on the platform to farm new assets.

Binance aims at providing a safer way for investors to venture into DeFi and Yield farming without the additional risks as seen with the collapse of Yam Finance (YAM) and the SushiSwap (SUSHI) debacle. In line with the current processes of Yield Farming, investors on Binance launchpool have the freedom to unstake their digital assets anytime they please.

In the case of BEL protocol (BEL), staked assets will be recorded over a 30 day period with rewards in BEL allocated daily and depending on which pool the user decides to participate in.

BEL will also be listed on the 16th of this month and trading open for BEL/BTC, BEL/BNB, BEL/BUSD and BEL/USDT pairs.
