Use Cases
There are multiple ways to earn with BNSOL. Here are some examples:

Liquidity farming

Liquidity farming is a popular earning mechanic in DeFi. It involves providing liquidity to decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and earning rewards for doing so.
To start liquidity farming, you’ll need to provide a pair of tokens to a liquidity pool. For example, you can pair BNSOL with another token supported by the pool, such as SOL. Users who swap between the pairs in the pool pay a fee to you as a liquidity provider. However, please take note of the risk of impermanent loss when entering liquidity pools.
Some examples that allow users to farm yields with BNSOL by forming liquidity pool tokens include DEXes, such as Raydium etc.

Lending and borrowing protocols

BNSOL can be leveraged within lending and borrowing protocols to earn yields or enhance capital efficiency. For example, you can use BNSOL as collateral to borrow other assets to enhance capital efficiency on various DeFi protocols on Solana Network.

Structured products and yield aggregators

Structured products and yield aggregators offer advanced DeFi opportunities for optimizing returns on your crypto assets.
BNSOL can be utilized to access these structured yield tokens, allowing you to participate in more complex DeFi strategies.

Restaking protocols

Restaking means utilizing SOL that has already been staked for additional rewards. In most cases, users can restake natively staked SOL and liquid staked tokens, such as BNSOL, on certain restaking protocols’ smart contracts (such as Solayer). This allows BNSOL to be applied to more applications on the Solana network, while also offering BNSOL holders the opportunity to earn additional rewards.

Diverse earning opportunities

If you’re looking for simple yields, there’s plenty to find on Binance. You can also head into the decentralized world for more structured products and offerings. As always, make sure to do your own research before investing in a project or product.

You are solely responsible for your investment decisions and Binance is not liable for any losses you may incur. APR is an estimate of rewards you will earn in cryptocurrency over the selected timeframe. It does not display the actual or predicted returns/yield in any fiat currency. APR is adjusted daily and the estimated rewards may differ from the actual rewards generated. Not financial advice. For more information, see our Terms of Use and Risk Warning.
1. Can I use BNSOL to participate in DeFi protocols?
Yes, you can withdraw BNSOL to a personal wallet, such as Binance Web3 Wallet and use it outside the Binance platform. Binance is working with multiple DeFi protocols to expand BNSOL use cases.
2. Can I hold BNSOL in a self-custody wallet?
Yes, you can hold BNSOL in self-custody wallets, such as Ceffu.
3. Is BNSOL worth more than SOL?
1 BNSOL represents 1 staked SOL plus the staking rewards since 2024-08-26 06:04 (UTC), thus the BNSOL:SOL ratio is not 1:1. Due to the accumulation of staking rewards, the value of 1 BNSOL progressively exceeds that of 1 SOL. The ratio is updated per Epoch on Solana network (approximately 2-3 days) to reflect the rewards earned from the staked SOL.
4. Is BNSOL safe?
BNSOL is being developed using the original Stake Pool Program maintained by Solana Labs, a robust framework that has been audited by multiple security firms to ensure the total safety of funds. This Stake Pool Program has also been thoroughly validated by various liquid staking token (LST) providers, further reinforcing its reliability and security.
