Wombat Exchange Partnership with BNB Chain
The Partnership empowers projects to kickstart and thrive with a wide range of support for each other.
Utilizing a stableswap 2.0 model, Wombat users are able to:
• Swap stablecoins at hyper-efficient exchange rates with minimal slippage.
• Earn a sustainable and optimal yield on their assets via single-staking pools.
$WOM maximizes capital utilization to fuel DeFi growth and adoption.
What makes Wombat special?
There’re four major benefits that Wombat brings:
• Scalable Equilibrium: Innovate coverage-ratio-based stableswap mechanism to remove scalability barriers, which allows the possibility of achieving 100% capital utilization with no impermanent loss.
• Slippage minimization: Wombat adopts the asset to liability model, slippage is negated until higher transaction amounts and reduced when it occurs.
• User-Friendly UI/UX: Simple and accessible interface with pure single token pool design.
• Foundation for DeFi to build upon: A pure single token pool design enables single-token LP tokens, ideal for borrowing and lending protocols and trading platforms to build on top of.

Helio Protocol Airdrop Announcement to Early Adopter
What is Helio Protocol?
Developed on the BNB Chain, Helio Protocol is an open-source liquidity protocol for borrowing and earning yield on HAY, which is a “destablecoin”.
Destablecoin a new asset class that is over-collateralized with liquid staked assets. In other words, HAY is an over-collateralized destablecoin, where 1 HAY is always redeemable at $1 of cryptocurrency, and over-collateralized by BNB. Users can mint and borrow HAY by providing BNB as collateral, which can then be used to stake for yield, liquidity mining and as a means to transfer value.
Following the launch of our governance token, HELIO, Helio Protocol will operate as a DAO, where the community will govern the protocol’s treasury, revenue pool and future direction.
