YIELD App Launches Ethereum Fund, Gives Users up to 20% APY

YIELD App Launches Ethereum Fund, Gives Users up to 20% APY

PRESS RELEASE. ESTONIA — MARCH 8, 2021 — YIELD App, the DeFi wealth management platform bridging traditional and digital finance, is pleased to announce the launch of its Ethereum fund, allowing users to earn high-interest returns on their Ether (ETH). Following a successful public launch and token listing (YLD), YIELD App can now offer its users up to 20% APY on their ETH and stablecoins. Ethereum deposits will be gradually open to YIELD App users over the next several days. The platform now accepts deposits of USDC, USDT, ETH, and YLD.

YIELD App has seen notable progress since the public launch of its web application on 12 February 2021. Over 10,000 users have already registered, helping the platform reach more than USD $5 million AUM. Currently, over 33 million YLD tokens are held in YIELD App wallets – accounting for over 30% of the current supply – and more than 500 users have “Tier 5” accounts (20,000+ YLD), granting them a 10% APY boost.

Designed for both the retail and institutional market, YIELD App accommodates the needs of investors interested in digital asset classes while also allowing crypto veterans to capitalize on DeFi’s incredible opportunities without navigating a sea of complex protocols. DeFi is powerful, and YIELD App serves as a gateway for users to benefit from DeFi’s high-interest yields while keeping their funds secure and protected. The new Ether fund enables users to now receive the same high-interest yields of the DeFi Alpha Fund I without selling the world’s second-biggest cryptocurrency by market cap.

“Ether is the backbone of decentralized finance, and many consider it the most important cryptocurrency in the world,” says Tim Frost, CEO of YIELD App. “We want to provide people with the opportunity to earn high interest on their Ether without selling the asset that allowed DeFi to emerge and could very well be the home to the future of global finance. This is an important milestone on our roadmap and a great development for our client base, who are looking for more ways to passively earn on crypto assets they want to hold long-term.”

Decentralized finance (DeFi) refers to a breadth of financial instruments and tools built on top of blockchains like Ethereum. DeFi removes the middleman from the equation and provides equal access and opportunities for everyone by using technology that is open, transparent, and immutable. Many of DeFi’s most popular protocols have taken familiar aspects of conventional finance (such as borrowing, lending, and insurance) and rebuilt them from the ground up, all powered and possible through blockchain.

DeFi has continued to set new records this year. Since 1 January 2021, DeFi’s total value locked (TVL) has climbed from USD $15 billion to $35 billion, a 233% increase. DeFi’s growth has been spectacular, but accessibility has hampered mainstream adoption. YIELD App bridges the divide by building a DeFi-powered service that is intuitive, secure, and backed by DeFi’s most innovative protocols. In the near future, YIELD App will launch additional funds, fiat ramps, in-app token swaps for each token pair, and card services.

The Congolese Mountain of Gold: Surprise Discovery in Africa Shows Metal’s Scarcity Is Hard to Prove

A myriad of gold bugs like to compliment the yellow precious metal for its ostensible scarcity, as estimates say only 2,500 to 3,000 tons of new gold is produced annually. While new gold discoveries have seemingly slowed, investigative studies also show that in some areas, gold is being smuggled into the economy by the ton, and often never accounted for as far as per annum issuance estimates. Recently, reports show a whole mountain of gold was discovered in the Congo, as the Democratic Republic of the Congo is well known for being a region that sees tons of smuggled gold filtered into the global financial system unreported. Surprise Gold Deposits Continue to Crack the Precious Metal’s Scarcity Proposition It has always been said that the precious metal gold (Au) is scarce, and some reports even say that gold mining on earth will end by the year 2050 . Additionally, estimates also show that there’s roughly 2,500 to 3,000 tons of new gold that is accounted for and enters into the fin...
