Venus Protocol’s Decentralized Stablecoin, Via, Launches on Binance Smart Chain; Forked From Compound & MakerDAO

2020-9-29 21:26

On September. 28, Binance announced the launch of Venus Protocol, an algorithmic money market platform that allows borrowing of over-collateralized loans, lending, and generation of new synthetic stablecoins, VAI. According to a tweet by Joselito Lizarondo, founder of Swipe Wallet and Venus Protocol, the BSC-based platform is a fork from Compound (COMP) and Maker (MKR).

Venus does not include any VC pre-mined tokens or team allocation funds in a bid to fully decentralize the project. The VAI token is a multi-collateralized stablecoin offering cross-chain collateral with other crypto assets based in the BEP-20 format.

The platform allows over-collateralized lending with 75% or lower of the assets supplied on the Venus Protocol and interest-earning on collateral supplied. Users can also stake their vTokens (e.g., vETH) to mint VAI stablecoin, which is pegged to the dollar at a ratio of 1:1. The statement from Binance reads,

“VAI is minted by the same collateral that is supplied to the protocol. Users can borrow up to 50% of the remaining collateral value they have on the protocol from their vTokens to mint VAI”.

The protocol is, however, governed by its governance token, XVS, which allows users to vote on issues on the platform such as adding collateral assets, initiating product developments, and major changes on Venus. At the start, Swipe wallet’s native token, SXP, will be used for governance “until there’s enough quorum of XVS mined to be sufficiently decentralized,” Lizarondo said.

A total of 20% of the mined XVS tokens will be allocated to the Binance launch pool, 1% to the Binance Chain Ecosystem, and the rest will be distributed to the miners. A total of 30 million XVS governance tokens will be mined by May 2024. Miners will be able to stake their Binance Coin (BNB), Binance USD stablecoin (BUSD), and Swipe’s SXP tokens to receive XVS tokens.

Binance also announced the XVS trading pairs would be listed in its Innovation zone, including the XVS/BTC, XVS/USDT, XVS/BUSD, and XVS/BNB pairs.

In September 2019, BEG reported Binance’s Venus project launch as a government-friendly replacement of Facebook-led stablecoin, Libra. But the Venus Protocol was clear to say that this wasn't the same as the open project from Binance.
