Please note:
Snapshots of user balances and total pool balances will be taken multiple times at any point of time each hour to get users’ hourly average balances and calculate users’ entitlement. Users’ entitlement will be updated each hour. Users will be able to accumulate their rewards (calculated each hour) and claim these rewards directly to their spot accounts at any time.Each pool’s annual percentage yield (APY) and total pool balance will be updated in real time.Tokens can only be staked in one pool at a time. For example, User A cannot stake the same BNB into two different pools at the same time, but can allocate 50% of their BNB into pool A and 50% into pool B.Users will be able to unstake their funds at any time with no delay and participate in any other available pools immediately.Tokens staked in each pool and any unclaimed rewards will be automatically transferred to each user’s spot accounts at the end of each farming period.Binance BNB Vault and Locked Products will support the Launchpool. Users who have staked their BNB in BNB Vault and Locked Products will automatically participate in the Launchpool, and receive new token rewards.If there are more than one Launchpool projects running concurrently, users' BNB assets in BNB Vault and Locked Products will be split and allocated into each project equally unless otherwise specified.BNB Vault assets collateralizing against Binance Loans (Flexible Rate) are not entitled to Launchpool rewards.BNB staked into Launchpool will still provide users with the standard benefits for holding BNB, such as airdrops, Launchpad eligibility and VIP benefits.
Participation in Launchpool is subject to eligibility based on the user's country or region of residence. Please refer to the instructions on the Launchpool page.
Please note that the list of excluded countries provided below is not exhaustive and may be subject to changes due to evolving local rules, regulations, or other considerations.

Note: This announcement was updated on 2024-04-08 to update the trading start time for Saga (SAGA) from 2024-04-09 14:00 (UTC) to 2024-04-09 08:00 (UTC), and on 2024-04-04 to add clarifications.

According to CoinDesk, UK Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt has agreed to have his ministry discuss the banking troubles faced by crypto companies in the country with lawmakers focused on the issue. This comes as the UK introduced and passed legislation recognizing crypto and stablecoins as regulated financial activities, in line with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's plans to turn the country into a hub for crypto. Despite the new regulatory status, firms have found it difficult to interact with local banks.

Lisa Cameron, head of an All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for crypto and digital assets, asked Hunt if he would be willing to discuss why regulated companies are struggling to open bank accounts. Hunt responded, stating that the UK, particularly London, has become the global crypto hub, but regulation is needed for the market to take off responsibly. He agreed to have the new Economic Secretary of the Treasury, Bim Afolami, meet with the APPG to discuss progress.
