Defi business is growing, with the TVL hitting over 59 billion as at the writing time. Large Defi platforms like Compound, Maker, UniSwap, Aave, and Curve own almost half of the TVL. These platforms stand out in service delivery and success because of their long-term reliability in the crypto space.

Other platforms, that are relatively new, offer similar services and have proven to be great competitors in Defi. All these platforms are less than one year old, but the services they offer are vital in the growth of Defi. This article will take a look at the new Defi platforms with the best prospects.

Reef

Reef is a Defi project based on the Polkadot network, designed for cross-chain trading. This platform started up in the second half of 2020, it aims to end the problems of crypto trading, staking, lending, yield farming, etc. Ultimately, the platform will streamline the entire Defi world and make it easy for new and experienced traders to earn income.

Additionally, the platform promises high decentralization, top security, and great liquidity in the Dex sphere. The platform has a native token, Reef, designed as the main utility token of the ecosystem. For instance, Reef instills a DAO governance system where the token holders can drive the network to total success.

Currently, the token has a circulating supply of 3 billion tokens, and each trades at $0.038. Moreover, the market cap stands at $429 million.

Alpha Finance Lab

Alpha finance lab is a crypto Defi platform launched in 2020 to maximize investors' incomes and lower risks. It's a network of Defi services based on the Binance smart chain. This platform was designed with utter simplicity, and all the products UIs are intuitive and user friendly.

Among its major services is Alpha lending, providing decentralized lending options at automatically changing/adjusting interest rates.

When it comes to yield farming, Alpha provides the Alpha Homora platform, which aids in earning high yield from providing liquidity both in Ethereum and BSC networks. Alpha X is another product of the Alpha Finance lab, a non-order perpetual Swap tool designed to help investors open long and short positions.

The Alpha network has a native token named ALPHA which helps in running the activities within the platform. Currently, the token is trading at $1.54 and has a market cap of $387 million.

Polkastarter

Polkastarter is a Defi platform designed as a launchpad for new crypto projects to ask for funds from the crowd through IDOs. It was launched in December 2020 on the Ethereum blockchain. However, it's in the platforms developers plan to migrate from Ethereum to the Polkadot mainnet soon.

Polkastarter platform will help other projects host swap pools and safely raise funds. Moreover, Polkastarter hosts a fixed swap smart contract designed to help new projects launch pools and complete orders using fixed prices. POLS is the native utility token, which aids in service delivery within the ecosystem.

The POLS token is used in governance, trading fee payment, liquidity mining, and other smaller services. The platform's statistics show the POLS token trading at $3.98 and a market cap of over $253 million. Moreover, the total number of coins circulating is over 63 million.

The Graph

The Graph is a Defi project which officially launched its mainnet on the 17th of December 2020. This platform provides an indexing tool for querying other top functional networks, including Ethereum. The users can make subgraphs that contain public information that can be shared across other applications for everyone to see.

The Graph primarily makes the blockchain, P2P, and storage networks data into public data, making data querying fast, safe, and reliable. As this platform grows, it will be easier for the public to access decentralized infrastructure easily.

The Graph has a native token dubbed GRT coin, whose success has been great since it went live in exchanges. For instance, today, the coin is trading at $1.92, and over 1.2 billion coins are circulating. The market cap is currently $2.39 billion.

Geodb

Geodb is a crypto network offering rewards to its users in exchange for sharing their anonymous data. The platform has multiple applications like Geocash, Volta, Geoscan, GeoSuite, Geo Appstore, and Marketplace, making data access and selling easy. The first app to launch, Geocash, has already proven successful in attracting over 300 thousand users, helping them earn rewards for their data. The Volta and Geoscan apps are awaiting their launch soon.

Geodb has a native token GEO, which is used to both reward users for their data, and to act as a means of payment for buyers wishing to purchase data. Liquidity pools and yield farming are also available. Currently, the token is trading at about $1.38, and the market cap stands at $29.7 million.

Recently, Geodb announced its new project, the ODIN protocol, a data oracle providing simplicity and convenience through decentralization. The ODIN protocol will help in collecting data from multiple sources and adding them to the financial world. ODIN will be launching on test net in the first half of 2021, with the Mainnet planned for December 2021.

According to the Geodb network, developers and general users will benefit highly from its features once the project is complete. Furthermore, they anticipate that more than 12 million people will be connected to the network through a range of partners and connected apps.

Wing

Wing Defi was launched in September 2020 and is based on the Ontology blockchain. The platform by design aims to help in cross-asset lending and communications in Defi.

The primary reason for the launch of The Wing network was eradicating over-collateralization clouding the crypto lending world. The platform has a credit score/evaluation system designed to help lenders understand borrowers' credit viability.

Using the credit evaluation, it will be possible for borrowers to receive loans based on trust between lenders, guarantors, and borrowers.

Wing has its native token Wing, which helps in powering the platform and its services. This token currently trades at $54.5, with a total market capitalization of $81.78 million. As the Defi lending business grows abundantly, it's safe to say that Wing is yet to see its best days.

Conclusion

As the Defi world continues to grow, so are the many solutions provided by different platforms to make work easy. Among the best Defi solutions are the six Defi projects discussed in this article.

Reef, Mdex, and Polkasterter, for instance, shine in service delivery and have thus accumulated wide followership and immense amounts of market cap, even though they are new. The graph and Wing also offer outstanding services, and if given time, the platform will prove to be among the best in Defi.

Finally, there is Geodb, a platform aiming to be the center of all data by providing multiple applications for buying and selling data. Although Geodb is yet to fully launch all its products, the currently live product, GeoCash, has attracted hundreds of thousands of users and is growing everyday.

The ODIN protocol has officially launched on  the Binance chain in its continued efforts to democratize the Big Data industry, currently valued at over $260 billion. 

The Open Data Interoperable Network (ODIN) is a decentralized system aimed at organizing the data oracle network, based on an open protocol for interaction with market participants and a sustainable economy.

The project seeks to introduce the future of true decentralized big data by building a decentralized peer-to-peer data sharing and trading ecosystem.

ODIN essentially combines the benefits of cryptography and decentralized technologies. The new system also brings together the simplicity of connecting data providers and the flexibility of developing contracts to receive and process data from them. The result is an ecosystem that increases the scalability and reliability of circulating data.

This BSC integration will help the ODIN system achieve its goal of building an open ecosystem that establishes trust relationships between the market participants while giving back control to data generators (the users). 

ODIN will tap into the scalable BSC blockchain to eradicate intermediation in the industry and foster faster growth and adoption of the project’s native tokens. The move to BSC will now enable users to execute operations at high speed and low transaction costs.

The ODIN team chose to build on Binance Chain due to the fast-growing ecosystem of the Binance network and lower gas fees compared to Ethereum.

The ODIN Protocol Binary Token System

The ODIN protocol implements a binary token system consisting of the native GEO and ODIN tokens.

ODIN has its initial total supply capped at 100M tokens and is used to secure the network and serve as a means of payment for Data consumers; the community also uses it to participate in System Governance.  ODIN applies a deflationary mechanism and 20% of all tokens will be burned, resulting in a final supply of 80m.

The protocol also usesthis first token as an incentive for validators to produce new blocks and submit responses to data requests. Validators are rewarded with a 12% APR of the subsidy in each block. They also receive 100% of the fee paid by users and all the tokens received due to violations of the ODIN protocol rules.

The second token, GEO, has a total supply capped at 350 million tokens and is used as payment to Data providers.

GEO serves as an inflationary token that data producers and data providers can quickly obtain. The ODIN team will use an auction mechanism to buy out a certain GEO amount for the ODIN token if the data is paid and consumed in the system.

Moreover, 50 million GEOs are to be distributed among data providers for about five years with an average rate of 27.400 per day. Tokens bought back by the foundation from the data acquisition transactions will be used to reward the next group of data-generating users.

ODIN use cases

Streaming of anonymized user-generated data such as location, health, consumption, mobile data & others from off-chain applications to onchain smart contracts.

Dynamic NFT allowing to update data records within NFT from real-world data

DeFi applications need to be fed with real-world data such as off-chain trading platforms, prices, forecasts, statistics, and various analytics.

Betting dapps can be fed with data from the real world to bring more decentralization & fairness to the betting sector.

ODIN Fair Launch

ODIN did a fair launch event on pancakeswap on 21st April gaining almost 9000 wallet holders within a few hours!

Following a successful pre-sale, the next-gen decentralized donations platform, Raven X is now available on Pancakeswap and JazzDeFi. Notably, PancakeSwap is the largest DEX on the Binance Smart Chain at this time. Raven X users now have access to this high liquidity market.

Successful Crowdsale

The Raven X network has seen considerable expansion since its launch due to its unique structure. The platform integrates an automated charitable aspect and combines it with passive rewards and a burn mechanism. Together, these features add utility to the platform and provide a humanitarian angle to the project.

There are already 11400 Raven X holders. These participants come from all over the globe. The coin now has a market cap of $12.8 million, with more users joining daily. Additionally, the platform's social media presence has kicked up last week. For example, the team’s Telegram already has 4500+ members.

What Makes Raven X Different?

There are some features that make Raven X different than its predecessors. For one, it’s the first automated donations platform to launch on the BSC according to the firm's documentation. As of late, the BSC has seen growing adoption across the market. This fourth-generation blockchain expands on the functionality of earlier blockchains and integrates some key DeFi features such as staking and liquidity pools.

Raven X leverages these functionalities and integrates an automated donations system with a liquidity pool. The blockchain aspect of the platform provides users with a new level of transparency not found on centralized networks.

Lost Funds Due to Inefficient Systems

In a normal donation scenario, as much as 40% of your funds never make it to their destination. Instead, administrative, marketing, and other costs gobble up these funds before they arrive. Sadly, the traditional charity systems lack transparency. You donate your funds and you’re at the mercy of the organization as to when and how much of your donation will ever make it to your cause.

Recognizing these shortcomings, Raven X's developers decided to create a new type of donations system that leverages blockchain’s transparency and efficiency to enable a new level of clarity to the market. In the Raven X ecosystem, there's no guessing required. You can track your donations from giving, all the way to their intended destination.

Additionally, since the entire donation process is automated via smart contracts. The network’s overhead is minimal. Smart contracts are preprogrammed codes that execute when they receive a certain amount of cryptocurrency. They allow platforms to remove the middlemen and their associated costs. They also eliminate human error by removing the need for human interaction from processes.

Pushing for a Better Tomorrow

Raven X's design integrates an automated charity fee from every transaction. Specifically, 2% of the 6% transaction fee is designated to the Binance Charity Wallet. This feature functions by first converting Raven X to BNB, which helps to reduce the circulating supply of the token in the market. Once converted, the BNB is then sent to the Binance Charity Wallet.

A Real Difference

Notably, Raven X has already made a significant impact. The firm raised $350,000 in under 14-days. Best of all, since the protocol is based on transaction fees, the more users on the network, the higher the donations will become. In this way, the network's humanitarian aspects scale along with its rewards.

Anyone can track these donations and the campaign’s progress here. Donors can also use this link to track their funds to their destination. The Binance Charity Wallet is a community-managed charitable liquidity pool. The goal behind the pool is to provide effective support for charitable platforms seeking last-mile solutions.

Raven X Rewards Users

Raven X users gain more than just great Karma for their participation. The network takes 2% of every transaction fee and distributes them to Raven X holders automatically. Like the charitable aspects of the platform, the system is designed to increase as the network's user base expands. These rewards are distributed automatically via smart contracts. You don’t have to sign up for them or lock your funds into a smart contract. They are issued directly to your wallet without delay.

Long term Approach

The team behind Raven X has also included some other features to help build investor confidence and demonstrate the long-term goals of the project. For one, the network has a deflationary aspect. Deflationary mechanisms are crucial for DeFi networks. Early networks suffered from inflation due to the unpredictable nature of their token issuance.

Raven X users don’t have to worry about inflation because the network automatically takes 2% of the transaction fees and sends these tokens to be burnt. Burning is a term used to describe the permanent removal of tokens from circulation. Integrating the deflationary aspect of the network as a percentage of the transaction fee was smart. It means that the more users on the network, the more tokens get burnt.

In the long term, these burns will result in growing demand. In turn, the value of Raven X should rise to reflect the added demand in the market. Additionally, the tokens that are converted to BNB and sent to the Charity Wallet also reduce the circulating supply of Raven X available to users.

Security First

Of course, none of these systems would be beneficial if the network wasn't secure. The developers have already conducted a full BSC Scan Audit on the network's coding. The platform passed this audit with flying colors. Keenly, the developers intend to continually edit the network as the project progresses.

Dev Tokens are Locked

The Dev funds for Raven X remain locked for 6 months via a DXSALE locker. Also, the project's liquidity is locked for 1 year on the platform. Liquidity locks are used by firms to provide investors with additional protection against rug pulls. Rug pulls occur when whales or developers remove large portions of a project’s liquidity directly following its launch. Sadly, these types of scams have become all too common. Raven X users gain the added security of liquidity locks.

Raven X – More Transparency and Higher Charitable Throughput

The fact that Raven X provides users with more transparency is a huge plus. The removal of middlemen also helps the network ensure that your funds arrive as intended and to the destination you requested. For these reasons, Raven X appears to fill a valuable niche within the BSC ecosystem.

Non-fungible tokens are gradually dominating the digital finance sector as data records an overall market cap of $26,793,451,648. Simply put, NFTs represent digital assets residing on a blockchain network with unique qualities or traits.

Therefore, Digible looks forward to hosting a marketplace with these types of assets whereby users can sell, auction, or buy physical cards within one ecosystem. Every physical card that traders possess will take the form of an NFT.

On top of that, Digible also has an NFT marketplace section where traders can sell or access a wide variety of NFTs, without the presence of any physical card.

Traders in this ecosystem have the opportunity of purchasing and owning collectibles while at the same time eliminating the need to hold these collectibles physically.

Safety Measures, DIGI Token Stats, and Use Cases

Security measures are in place as Digible will store a user’s physical card on DigiSafe, the platform’s security tool. Leveraging DigiSafe enables traders to monitor the details of their valuable cards at any moment.

$DIGI is the native token that empowers Digible’s marketplace ecosystem. The native token has a total supply of 100 million with an allocation of 10 million to the founding team, 15 million for liquidity pools, marketing strategies receive 10 million, and another 7,5 million is designated for reward programs.

$DIGI token is not live on any network; however, Digible plans on conducting a presale round on April 22nd, 2021, at 15:00 UTC. Participation procedures will be announced on Medium’s site to accumulate a large number of participants.

Staking options will also be available for users who wish to stake their $DIGI tokens. The staking investment idea seeks to create an incentivized ecosystem where traders can secure rewards generated by the Digible platform.

$DIGI token is also applicable in the yield farming venture as users can add liquidity and receive LP tokens on Uniswap using the DIGI/USDT pair.

More Features

DigiGrade

The NFT marketplace network introduces innovative features to its users, such as DigiGrade. DigiGrade allows traders to analyze and transfer their digital cards to the physical collectible cards. The PSC solution, which is found near the DigiSafe service, ensures every card is rated before going online on the ecosystem’s marketplace.

DigiTrack

Traders on Digible are also guaranteed the ability to control their valuable cards through the DigiTrack solution fully. Users can either choose to store their physical cards on DigiSafe, as mentioned earlier, or sell them after a while to maximize profits.

Every DigiTrack service takes a decentralized approach, and users only need to log in to their wallets with the NFT assets. A user’s NFT will be burned immediately after selling the physical card, hence countering the issue of duplication.

DigiAuction

We’ve already established that users can initiate an auction; nevertheless, it is only available for users holding an amount worth 3000 DIGI. If it happens to be an NFT undergoing the auction sale, Digible will simply lock the digital asset as the auction proceeds and deal with any transaction processes involved.

DigiDuel

DigiDuel creates a competitive space where users can battle for specific NFTs located in their wallets. It employs a betting approach that involves placing a bet of the NFT and a $DIGI token amount.

In the final step, users have to choose any preferable color. Traders with the winning color will obtain the losing opponents’ NFT along with the $DIGI betting amount. Out of the total betting amount, Digible will cut a 1% fee, of which 0.3% will be burnt while 0.7% of the fee will be added to the staking pool.

Transaction Charges

Digible charges a 10% fee on any sale and auction procedure within the marketplace. Staking pools will attain 5% from the transaction fees, while the remaining 5% will cater to the platform’s overall operations as it aims to become a sustainable ecosystem.

Presale Details:

Minimum Contribution: 0.1 ETH

Maximum Contribution: 0.5 ETH

Total Raise for Pre-Sale: 300 ETH

Pre-Sale Rate: 1 ETH = 81,666 DIGI

Uni Swap Listing Rate: 1 ETH = 65,500 DIGI

60% of the Presale (180 ETH) will be utilized for liquidity and will be locked for two years.

The sale will be hosted via the website on www.digible.io Further instructions will be given via the Telegram on the day, and an announcement will be made.

The DIGI token will have a total supply of 100M distributed as follows:

• Marketing — 10M

• Digible Team — 10M

• Rewards to Liquidity providers -7,5M

• Liquidity locked in Digible Pools- 15M

Team & Marketing tokens will be vested over a 24 month period.

The data gives insight into what we can expect of the Digible platform after its services fully go live. Please be on the lookout for the presale of the DIGI token that is going live on April 22, 15:00 UTC!

The continued rise in Ethereum's congestion and gas fees has caused a flood of new investors to seek out alternatives in the market. One platform that has benefited greatly from its technical advantages and lower fees in PancakeSwap. The network operates as the largest DEX on the Binance Smart Chain and over the last 30-days has grown considerably.

Like most DEXs, PancakeSwap has limitations in terms of trading options and functionality. Luckily, the BSC development community is now in full swing. Already, PancakeSwap has multiple third-party tools available to users. These platforms play an important role in the onboarding process for DEXs because most traders assume they will have options like limit orders if they came from a centralized exchange (CEX).

The lack of these basic features can make new users hesitant to make the change over to DEXs. In turn, this negatively affects all traders. The more liquidity in the market, the better it is for everybody. Luckily you won’t have to scour the darkest corners of the web hunting these tools out. Here are some cool new third-party PancakeSwap tools worth checking out in 2021.

Bogged Finance

Bogged Finance makes the top spot due to its advanced trading interface that simplifies PancakeSwap orders and adds new features such as limit orders for any token. The platform provides you with access to an entire toolset. Use BogCharts to see any token's market cap, liquidity, and more.

Bogged Finance accomplishes this task thanks to the integration of oracles. Oracles are off-chain sensors that can trigger smart contracts and communicate data to and from the network to third parties. These same oracles can also be leveraged by other developers via BogTools. Developers simply pay a small fee in the network’s native token, BOG, to deploy these tools on their networks.

New projects can now gain investor confidence by displaying price charting and history to potential investors. You can also record and store the price of any asset pair. You gain access to a nice selection of tools that are user-friendly even for newbies. There are also staking options available via the PancakeSwap BOG-BNB Liquidity Pool. Take the BOG-BNB Cake-LP tokens you receive as a reward from this pool and stake them with Bogged Finance to earn even more.

Bogged Finance has demonstrated a true desire to be transparent and decentralized from its start. For example, the developers held no presale, limited purchases to 5% to keep whales from controlling the network, and the team and liquidity tokens are locked to help build confidence in the team's long-term objectives. Bogged Finance offers a unique combination of popular DeFi features that makes it a powerful addition to anyone’s PancakeSwap trading strategy.

Wow Swap

Wow Swap is another up-and-coming project that improves the PancakeSwap UX. Wow Swap is a decentralized leveraged trading protocol that runs on top of the PancakeSwap network. It leverages some of the fourth-generation features of the BSC to provide investors with a host of DeFi functionalities and the ability to trade with up to 5x leverage.

Wow liquidity providers gather their funds and create a BNB lending pool via the Wow Swap interface. Borrowers can then borrow against this pool with 5x leverage. Notably, the top four liquid tokens on PancakeSwap are currently available for this service. Specifically, the network supports CAKE, ETH, BTCb, and AUTO at this time.

Wow Swap entices new users and HODLers with frequent giveaways, contests, bonuses, and Airdrops. Additionally, the protocol includes a deflationary mechanism. A percentage of all transaction fees is used to buy back tokens. These tokens can be temporarily removed from the market or sent to a burning mechanism to remove them forever. This functionality gives the network more control regarding the BOG token's value.

The network relies on a community-governance protocol that gives WOW token holders a say in the network’s developments. Users can submit proposals for changes and upgrades. These proposals go before the community for a vote. If they are voted in, the network's piggyback will release the funds to make the project a reality.

PancakeBunny

PancakeBunny is a yield farming aggregator & optimizer. Its unique technical specifications allow it to automatically compound users yields through the Binance Smart Chain and Pancake Swap. The protocol accomplishes this without risking your principal investment. Specifically, profits from select pools get auto compounded into the CAKE compounding pool which increases your ROI. The platform already supports BUNNY, CAKE, BUNNY-BNB, CAKE-BNB BUSD-BNB, USDT-BNB, DAI-BNB, USDC-BNB, VAI-BUSD, USDT-BUSD Pools.

The development team behind PancakeBunny, MOUND, recently hosted a crowdfunding event. Notably, Binance Labs was the lead investor. The team secured $1.6M in its first Strategic Investment Round to expand its network and feature. Some other interesting participants in the event included Handshake co-founder, Andrew Lee, IDEO CoLab, and SparkLabs Korea.

The development team has wasted no time getting new features to the public. This week they added single asset vaults. These vaults are available in BNB, BTCB, ETH, BUSD, and USDT. In the coming weeks, the team has plans to introduce even more functionalities. According to company documentation, the next feature will be an ETH-BSC cross-chain functionality.

This feature will help new users migrate their assets over to the BNB ecosystem. If successful, it will help to relieve much of the friction associated with that process. Since its launch in December 2020, PancakeBunny has seen more user participation. The platform currently boasts 30,000 daily average users. Notably, these users have $2.1 billion in total value locked (TVL) on the project.

Top PancakeSwap Tools for 2021

There are sure to be more tools entering the PancakeSwap ecosystem shortly. However, not every tool or third-party add-on is reliable and secure. Always DYOR and stick to reputable projects to protect your hard-earned BNB. All of the projects on this list have put forth a pioneering effort in the BSC network that is sure to spark interest in the market.

One of the hardest parts of crypto investing is simply locking the funds up and waiting. Unless you’re a profitable trader, you’re probably buying into tokens and coins for long to medium-term gains. This scenario leans harder towards long-term strategies when you discuss NFTs.

Non-Fungible tokens differ from regular cryptocurrency in some major ways. For one, NFTs represent something unique. It can be art, video clips, cars, or even real estate. As such, the value for a single NFT can be very high compared to regular cryptocurrencies. There are NFTs in the market today that cost millions.

Average NFT Investors

Of course, most people aren't spending a million on one token, but the number of investors spending thousands on these collectibles is growing rapidly. In the current market scenario, these investors purchase, trade, earn, or win NFTs and the liquidity is locked until they sell the NFT. However, selling the NFT isn’t the best idea either as these tokens continue to skyrocket in value.

So what do you do now? A unique project called Stater has introduced a new option for collectors that could help to eliminate this situation in the future. Stater is NFT lending protocol and marketplace. The network is decentralized, non-custodial, and operates in a Peer-to-Peer manner.

Anyone can take their NFTs to the platform and use them as collateral to get a loan. The platform offers two different lending services to fit your needs. The fastest of the two is the Pool Lending feature. Users provide liquidity to this pool in exchange for STR tokens that they can stake and receive discounts using. These funds are then available for borrowers to lend against.

Oracles Make it All Possible

The Pool Lending process relies on Stater's fair market oracle to provide you with the value of your collectible. This off-chain protocol examines all the core characteristics of your NFT. It will look at specific items such as the properties compared to other assets, past transaction history, minted date, market cap, volume, market trend, and the total number of assets in the collection.

After evaluating these items and comparing your token to other similar tokens and their value, you are provided with instant loan terms. If you accept the loan, your NFT will be locked in a smart contract. Stater will hold the NFT and act as an escrow until the loan terms are met. Once the payments are complete, you will receive your NFT back. If you miss too many payments, your NFT will be liquidated.

The main lending process will provide you with more flexibility. The core lending protocol allows you to set terms and other vital options regarding your loan. You can scroll through other options offered and choose the one that best fits your needs. You can even create loan packages utilizing single or multiple assets.

Why NFT Lending Opens Doors

Stater users can reenter the market using the original NFT as collateral. This added capital will help to drive the industry’s market cap higher. You retain ownership of your original investment when you use this strategy. If done correctly, you can use the same liquidity to build up a healthy crypto portfolio.

STR Token

The STR token plays a vital role in the network. Users can HODL this token and gain voting rights. They also receive loans and fund lending pools using this token. Additionally, you can stake STR and receive a 50% discount from fees as a borrower or lender. You can only stake 1 Stater NFT at a time for these rewards.

Liquidity Mining

Those interested in participating in Stator as a lender can do so via the Liquidity Mining mechanism. The more you stake and the longer your stake, the more rewards you earn. Notably, these rewards are paid out daily directly to your ERC-20 compliant wallet.

Stater NFTs

Stater goes a step further by issuing its own custom native NFTs. Uniquely, Stater NFT holders get discounts on the platform. They can also use these tokens to take out loans or provide liquidity to other borrowers. There are some competitions and Airdrops that qualify as well.

Lender Protections Built In

If you choose to provide liquidity and the NFT borrower defaults, you have a couple of different options. You can decide to keep the NFT directly, or take a partial payment and sell the NFT on the market. There is also the option to receive the funds in STR tokens.

Keeping it Simple

One of the coolest features about Stater is all the lending is valued in Ethereum. Using an Ethereum standard by default helps lenders and borrowers to better understand their terms. The ETH listings are the default setting but there is also the option to track everything in STR.

Let the People Decide

STR holders can participate in the community in many ways. One feature they gain is the ability to vote on all vital network upgrades. You can submit your proposal to the community and if it passes, the changes are put in motion. This strategy allows the community to decide what's the best way to spend the community bank.

Security Is Critical

One of the biggest concerns to collectors is security. As new NFT platforms continue to enter the market it’s vital that you stick to open-source projects. These platforms provide the community with their coding so you can have confidence in the true functionality and actions of the network. Stater has gone a step further and sought out third-party auditing firms to confirm the validity of their coding.

Stater Hits a Niche Market in a Niche Market

Stater has found a way to serve NFT investors and contribute to the growth of the entire sector. Their lending protocols unlock stale liquidity in new ways. In this way, investors don't miss out on other opportunities in the market.

Now, unlike any other time, the Ethereum world is growing, but so are the gas prices associated with transactions. For instance, just one year ago, the Ethereum gas prices stood at an average of 14.38, but today the gas charges are 153.27. This rise represents a surge in fees with over 1000%.

It's becoming more expensive every other day to trade using the Ethereum networks. What would you say about a platform that lets investors leverage the ethereum network at the lowest to no gas charges? Well, Holderfinance introduces a gasless protocol with the motive of reducing GAS. What exactly is Holder Finance?

Holder Finance is a Defi token project based on a Cross-chain ecosystem as a store of value. It has a token dubbed HFi, which helps in running the entire ecosystem. HFi tokens are like digital gold since their value will increase vastly due to the surging demand over the years. The total supply of the tokens will remain at 1000, all released in 10 years.

Holder finance introduces a protocol dubbed HolderSwap, the all-in-one solution to the unfavorable Ethereum gas fees, cross-chain trading and AAT as Automated Arbitrage Trading.

HolderSwap

HolderSwap is Holder Finance's Decentralized exchange plugin created as the ultimate solution for the surging Ethereum gas fees. Trade executors and recipients will use personalized trade execution charges.

The Dapp introduces some of the best features to ensure the gas fees are reduced to almost zero, thus leaving investors with ample incomes. Here are the features;

Holder Limit Protocol

One feature introduced in the HolderSwap project which will help offer reduced gas fee is the holder limit protocol. This protocol allows users to add limit orders on Uniswap gas free and place limit orders on BSC DEXes such as PancakeSwap, BurgerSwap or FEGex. This tool fosters utter simplicity and efficiency, thus capable of providing GAS free trades. The tools defining the holder limit protocol include;

Top security and maximum decentralization

Certified and audited

Extra simple user interface

Permitted batched transactions for lower gas fees

An autonomous arbitrage trading option will be available in Uniswap, Balancer, SushiSwap, and Mooniswap.

A simple and cost efficiency bridge protocol which allows cross-chain trading.

HolderSwap will have an OTC market, an over-the-counter trading tool allowing users to access exchange services fast and effortlessly. This tool offers traders personalized services, thus avoiding slippage, high fees, and other swap and trading issues.

The OTC tool helps you sell tokens free from taxation. Among the attributes defining the OTC desk include;

Highly dedicated to early users by providing an intuitive UI and simplifying the entire process.

Supports all ERC-20 and BEP20 assets and other assets like wBTC, wETH and USDC and USDT

The OTC will host a decentralized application that will help serve everyone globally in real-time.

Dynamic Fee Adjustment Tool

Centralized exchanges charge their trading fee based on the monthly volume, i.e., the higher the volume, the lower the fee, and the vice versa is also true. However, this system is unfair to small traders with smaller volumes.

HolderSwap is developing a tool dubbed dynamic fee adjustment tool where the trading fee will vary based on the asset's volatility and price movements. The minimum attainable trading fee is 0.05%, and the maximum is 1%, all dependent on the volatility. This provides benefits for all traders and users of HolderSwap by giving equal advantages in using the platform.

Liquidity Provision Cap

The liquidity provision cap is designed to ensure the users earn the best income for providing liquidity in a pool. HolderSwap instills systems to ensure the rewards on liquidity provision brings better rewards than in other exchanges like UniSwap.

HolderSwap’s Native Token

As a product of the Holder Finance project, HolderSwap will leverage the powers of the HFi token. However, HolderSwap has its native utility token dubbed HFS that serves people within the platform. Users are rewarded with HFS tokens in the platform for using the HolderSwap plugin OTC desk, limit orders, and liquidity provision.

This token will help reward the HFi token holders based on their stakes and the persons participating in trades within the network as well as a dual rewards farming program..

There is a maximum number/total supply of the HFS token of 3,000,000 HFS which is going to be released over a year. Therefore the platform institutes strong policies to ensure it protects the values of these tokens through a high deflationary mechanism..

It hardens the minting of new HFS tokens, thus effectively limiting the number of tokens in circulation over time. This minting difficulty will follow the prevailing prices and surges of these tokens over a 24 hour period. For instance, if the price surges by 10%, the limiting difficulty will increase with an almost similar intensity. Other algorithms will also be instituted to ensure that the supply and circulation are limited and the demand remains high.

The platform will also instill a token burn mechanism to burn 5% of every sell order once the circulating supply hits 200k HFS.

According to their podcast, HFS completed their LGE recently minting around 60,000 HFS.

Top Transparency and Security

HolderSwap assures investors top security and transparency through the various policies they set for the tokens. For instance, the platform developers will only list ERC-20/BEP-20 tokens with the following attributes;

The new token must be audited by their security partner CDTSEC

An open-source contract that CDTSEC has already approved

A token that already runs safely on UniSwap or PancakeSwap

Conclusion

Holder finance's introduction provides crypto investors with an excellent opportunity for investing in a value retention token. However, more advantageous is the introduction of HolderSwap by Holder Finance. HolderSwap is the long-awaited solution to the many issues clouding Defi, especially the ever increasing Gas fees in the Ethereum network. This gasless protocol ensures that regular traders benefit from trading at favorable to no fee by leveraging the OTC, limit protocol, and fee adjustment tool.

Its native token HFS is also providing excellent opportunities for earning passive incomes to all the investors. Investors should be ready to try out this tool and expect the best results.

The Binance Smart Chain (BSC) ecosystem is in the midst of record expansion. This growth is being fueled by a combination of factors. For one, Ethereum, the world's top DeFi blockchain, has reached a point where it’s no longer able to scale to meet the demands of its users. The network's congestion has pushed Gas prices to record highs.

These fees are what’s used to fund the execution of transactions and smart contracts. Sadly, the structure of Ethereum is designed to increase these fees when congestion on the network rises. The reason the network does this is to make it very expensive for spam to get on the blockchain.

In theory, the concept sounds great, Gas prices go up and that pushes only the top smart contracts. However, the reality is much different. No one could've predicted the recent expansion of the DeFi and NFT communities. As such, Ethereum wasn't ready to handle this level of smart contract interactions.

The result of this technical misstep is that regular users can’t afford to conduct transactions at this time. Additionally, Dapp developers are stuck in between a rock and a hard place because their Ethereum protocols are so expensive to execute in these scenarios.

BSC to the Rescue

The BSC is an alternative and biggest competitor to Ethereum at this time. This fourth-generation blockchain was designed to compliment and run in parallel with the original Binance Chain. Notably, the BSC is far more advanced than both Ethereum and Binance Chain.

This fourth-generation blockchain was built to handle all the top DeFi functions and remain scalable to the masses. BSC users can stake their tokens, yield farm issues and trade NFTs, and much more. The network's structure is many times faster than Ethereum and provides developers with cheaper Gas fees and more options.

The only problem with BSC at this time is that because it’s new, it doesn’t have the same level of high liquidity found on Ethereum. This lack of liquidity can mean that BSC projects take longer to gain traction and it can be harder to find solid trades. Luckily, there is one firm that believes they have developed a way to solve the liquidity issue facing new projects, Moon Token.

Moon Token – A New Type of Token

The concept behind Moon Token is simple yet effective. Take a small percentage of every transaction fee and send it to the project’s liquidity pool. Specifically, 8% of every fee gets added to the liquidity pool automatically. What makes this redistribution method different is that these funds remain locked forever in the pool.

This approach enables Moon Token to benefit twofold from every user. When the network expands, users see a demand in MOON's value. Additionally, the total liquidity locked in the project also rises which helps to build investors’ confidence. Additionally, regular users can participate in the Liquidity Pool and earn passive rewards for their efforts.

Rewards for Holding

If you hold MOON, you are entitled to your share of the network's transaction fees. The developers have set the protocol to take 2% of the fees and redistribute them to LP participants. This strategy incentivizes users to hold MOON and helps to create higher ROIs for all users.

MOON Value Strategy

To ensure that MOON's demand stays high, the protocol integrates the token into all aspects of the network. You receive all your rewards in MOON. You also pay fees with this versatile token. Keenly, the team has introduced some deflationary controls to better maintain the token's value in times of market downturn.

This deflationary mechanism burns a certain amount of MOON based on the market conditions. The community can also vote on burning tokens via proposals. MOON holders control the direction of the platform as the network is community-driven via its voting mechanism. All you need to do is hold MOON to gain access to these rights.

Voters can alter the fees, tokens, and other technical aspects of the network. Since the entire community can vote on these issues, Moon Token will go in the direction users desire. They can make vital changes to liquidity pool interest rates as well using this system.

Security First

Of course, it doesn’t matter how many rewards you earn if the network isn’t safe to begin with. Moon Token's developers have sought out to create a fully secure DeFi experience for users. As such, the network has been audited by Tech Rate. The company found that Moon Token's protocol is free of any coding errors that could potentially cause headaches in the future.

To be extra sure, the developers have already scheduled another third-party audit with Certik Contract Audit for later this year. Conducting multiple third-party audits demonstrates the level of commitment the developers have to their user’s safety. Notably, the team plans to continually conduct third-party audits as new features unveil in the coming months.

Non-Custodial

Another feature about Moon Token that can keep your crypto safe is its non-custodial design. Non-custodial platforms allow you to participate in services such as staking and liquidity mining without removing your tokens from the protection of your wallet.

In the early days of crypto, large custodial centralized exchanges ran the show. However, they quickly became prime targets for hackers and other scammers looking to get into their large community wallets. Non-custodial platforms eliminate this attack vector because they never hold their user’s funds directly.

Blast off with Moon Token

Moon Token intends to launch a mobile Dapp on iPhone and Android in the coming months. These apps are set to coincide with multiple centralized exchange listings and the launch of an exclusive NFT marketplace. When you examine the combination of features that the team has set out, it's easy to see why Moon Token is worth taking a deeper look at.

Bogged.Finance is an innovative platform that allows users to research and place orders for any token on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). The project features BogTools, an ecosystem of developer-friendly dApps powered by the BOG governance and payment token.

The Limit Order platform taps into liquidity from PancakeSwap, allowing users to fill their order at the best possible price. Development is underway to facilitate users to take advantage of multiple decentralized exchanges (DEXs).

The team behind Bogged Finance seeks to offer DEX users access to multiple tools usually allocated to centralized exchanges (CEXs), such as limit orders.

Bogged Finance Limit Orders Are Live!

BogTools is proud to introduce take profit (Limit Sells) for PancakeSwap, allowing crypto traders to place orders that will be filled once the price increases on any PancakeSwap token. This development is a big leg up from the Limit Buy Orders that lets users buy the dip on any PancakeSwap token.

Launched on April 13, the new feature will allow users to enjoy automatic Limit Sells, which routes the order via the Pancakeswap DEX. Eventually, users will have the ability to route through BakerySwap and other Automated Market Makers (AMMs) to get the best price on any token.

Limit orders are a type of buy order that traders place with a specific buy/sell price of their choosing. The trade is automatically executed when the market price reaches the target price. 

The introduction of Limit Buy/Sell Orders is massive for BSC, as it enables users to take profits on the platform and exit in time, especially if they have a life. Moreover, Bogged Finance users will now have the capacity to effectively buy dips/take profits to take advantage of volatility in the crypto market.

Stop Losses Are Coming to Bogged Finance!

The next release from BogTools will add Stop Losses on April 20 at 9 pm UTC, helping traders avoid getting completely rekt on the latest shitcoin in the market.

The project's native BOG token is used to pay for Limit Order fees and other features on the platform, so all users will be required to hold a BOG balance to utilize the BogTools functionality. Presently, the token charges a 4.5% fee on transactions to reward Liquidity Providers (LPs).

A portion of these fees' profits will be distributed to LP Stakers, who receive a 147% annual percentage yield (APY). The rest of the profits go to the BogTool developers to further expand the project on BSC.

The fact that all users on the platform must buy BOG from a limited 2.4m supply will boost the token's adoption and result in higher prices over time. 

More Exciting Features On the Bogged Finance Roadmap

Following the introduction of Limit Orders and Stop Losses (next Tuesday), the BogTools dev team plans to add Take Profit and additional complex order types. Other upcoming features include an Order Book and Market Depth.

The platform has released BogCharts, which will be the only chart provider mentioned on every Waterfall bot and UniRocket bot. Limit Orders are now enabled on BogCharts Pairs that satisfy high volume requirements.

Using BogCharts, crypto traders can now view charts for any token with liquidity in PancakeSwap at zero cost and access vital trading information such as token liquidity and market capitalization. 

BogTools developers will continue to roll out updates and enhancements to the Chart platform in the coming weeks and months. 

The integration of these Charts and other UI elements is destined to make Bogged Finance the preferred destination for all trading on BSC and set up the BOT token on a moon mission to $200m.

Blockchain technology continues to unlock capabilities in the financial sector, and more so in decentralized finance. Today, there are thousands of blockchain-based projects, and cryptocurrency is one of its most remarkable developments. Blockchain projects come to solve real-life problems, and Aqualair is now touching on the ecosystem.

Aqualair is the most recently launched blockchain protocol based on the Ethereum network. The project aims to provide the crypto industry with a clean and healthy environment while supporting the cryptocurrency industry through different functionalities.

Understanding Aqualair

Aqualair is a project from a team with diverse expertise in the blockchain technology space. The team came up with the project's name by combining the two words Aqua and Lair. Aqua means water, while lair means a resting place.

The protocol comes with more and better blockchain ideas that aim at facilitating easy performance of functions and with the most negligible risks of impermanent losses. It presents a world of services in a safe and convenient environment as a third-party audited protocol.

As a decentralized finance platform, Aqualair leverages the automated market maker technology to allow users to provide liquidity and achieve sustainability with their crypto assets. The project presents different functionalities, including NFT, staking, gaming, and mining within a single and environmental-friendly ecosystem.

Aqualair Project's Key Notes

The Aqualair team aims to run an environmentally friendly platform through the capabilities presented by blockchain technology.

NFT Breeding

NFT Breeding is a new concept in the cryptocurrency space. It involves the creation of non-fungible tokens that are on the main market listing. The NFT can have a similar or different use case as its parent cryptocurrency. Users will have an opportunity to accumulate their token holdings by being part of the NFT breeding. Each non-fungible token has a distinct hash rate, function, and use case.

Gaming

Aqualair provides gamers with more value by integrating the elements of a non-fungible token in gaming. The games promote interactions among platform users and allow them to enjoy the added value in gaming.

Decentralized Application (Dapp)

Aqualair features a decentralized application that supports real-life use cases. The platform takes advantage of a complementary component to provide users with an easy way to access the features without using constant lines.

Yield Farming

Aqualair users have a yield farming opportunity to stake the native token AQLR and become liquidity providers. Users who participate will earn rewards from their staking. However, not everyone can benefit from yield farming. There is no set minimum amount for staking, but the user must have at least 30% APY to join the yield farming chain. The earliest users of the platform have been enjoying Aqualair airdrops as part of its marketing efforts.

Aqualair Presale by the Sea

The Aqualair project’s presale is live, and the team already won early funding from Angel Investors. The team plans to channel the funding towards running NFT platforms and designing processes on the surface of target markets on Rarible and Opensea. However, they are still inviting investors from the vast crypto community to be part of the presale.

The presale that kick-started on April 8, 2021, is expected to run until April 24, 2021. The presale targets to sell 9 million AQLR with a minimum contribution of 0.1 ETH and a maximum of 5 ETH per address. To participate, users only need to have a minimum of 0.1 ETH plus the gas fees and send them to the presale address. Ethereum gas fees are currently high, so investors can wait until it falls below 200 Gwei. Users then create a Trustwallet or Metamask Wallet, set the gas limit, and wait for confirmation.

Participants will get extra bonuses limited to the fastest 100 addresses in the presale purchase. Also, investors making purchases of between 2 and 3 ETH will get a 3% bonus plus a random chance for 1 NFT. Purchasers committing between 4 and 5 ETH will get a 5% bonus and a random chance for 2 NFT, plus a limited NFT Badge.

Investors participating in the presale will have exclusive benefits in the future, provided they maintain a fixed address that did the presale. The benefits include:

*Users can claim NFTs during the program’s opening
*

*An early market access
*

Permanent whitelist

Aqualair Legitimacy

The project's team chose to remain anonymous but made efforts to guarantee the legitimacy of the project. Half of its token supply is locked in TrustSwap. The team also contracted a third-party audit company and made public their audit report. The report shows that Aqualair is well secured.

Wrapping Up

Over the last few years, the decentralized finance industry has gained traction and proven to have much potential. There has been a surge in Defi projects and their adoption in the crypto sphere. However, Defi projects are still faced with their share of challenges, including volatility, lack of a proper valuation method, burning policies, and intense competition. Most decentralized finance platforms integrate services like lending, yield farming, and swapping. Aqualair is also providing these services and introduces new functionalities like NFT breeding.

Aqualair is leveraging Ethereum's network to provide a multi-functional decentralized finance platform. It is the first blockchain project that focuses on creating awareness of the need for conserving the ecosystem.
