Binance has unveiled BFUSD, a new reward-bearing asset designed to provide returns on qualifying futures account balances.
Users can earn yields as high as 19.55%, depending on their activity and eligibility. This innovative asset also doubles as a margin tool in multi-asset mode while continuing to generate rewards, making it an attractive option for traders.
The official launch of BFUSD is set for November 27 at 2 AM UTC, with a total supply capped at 120 million units. Binance has implemented a tiered quota system for purchases, determined by users’ VIP levels. To participate, users need to transfer USDT to their UM wallets, with boosted APY available to those who traded UM Futures the previous day. Base APY starts at 29.18%, and a boosted APY can reach up to 38.98%, according to Binance’s data.
BFUSD stands out for its redeemable nature, allowing users to exchange it for USD stablecoins. It is backed by a collateral pool with a coverage rate of 101.32% and a dedicated reserve fund to handle potential funding costs, ensuring stability and security. Binance will allocate proceeds from BFUSD sales to passive income investment strategies, offering holders steady returns.
Additionally, early adopters can enjoy promotional benefits, including zero purchase fees and 100,000 USDT in token vouchers. However, risks are associated with holding BFUSD, such as potential losses from negative funding rates, redemption challenges, and exposure to Binance’s credit risk. Binance has clarified that BFUSD is not a stablecoin but a unique financial instrument for the crypto market.
