Enhanced features and accessibility
BounceBit has reopened its premium yield generation feature, allowing users to claim all profits accumulated before May 13 at portal.bouncebit.io.
This feature enables yield generation on BTC (bitcoin) and USD stablecoins through Funding Rate Arbitrage on Binance, with a minimum investment of 1000 USD or 0.1 bitcoin. To participate, users must lock BBTC (bitcoin on Bouncebit) and BBUSD (stablecoins on BounceBit) on the BounceBit Chain, ethereum, or BNB Smart Chain.
BounceBit introduces liquid custody, which keeps users’ assets liquid while secured in centralized, regulated custody. Participants can deposit BTCB (bitcoin BEP2 price chart) & FDUSD (first digital USD) on the BNB Smart Chain and WBTC (wrapped bitcoin) & USDT on the ethereum network.
Liquid custody tokens (LCTs) are issued following these deposits on the corresponding chain, with BTCB and WBTC deposits receiving BBTC as LCT, and FDUSD and USDT deposits receiving BBUSD as LCT.
