Protocol Code Quality
  • Code reviewed by at least one experienced auditor; Halborn audited in May 2021
  • Anonymous team reduces transparency

  • Timelock is less than 48hrs, which provides users with less time to exit if any malicious upgrades are approved
  • At least one critical governance issue documented
  • Low voting power concentration reduces risk
Protocol Design
  • No death spiral concerns
  • This protocol is susceptible to risks related to decentralized exchanges (DEXs), such as impermanent loss
Things to know about Biswap

How Biswap works

Biswap is an automated market maker (AMM) like PancakeSwap that launched in 2021 on BNB Chain. AMMs rely on liquidity pools rather than traditional order books to execute decentralized trades. The liquidity pools are funded by users who deposit two tokens in equal proportion in exchange for a liquidity provider (LP) token that represents their claims to their share of the total pool, plus a portion of trading fees. On Biswap, you can earn additional yield by locking up your LP tokens to farm them for the protocol's native BSW token.

How Biswap makes money

Biswap charges a 0.2% fee on all trades within a liquidity pool. Of this amount, 0.15% is paid to LPs as a reward for providing liquidity, 0.02% goes to the Biswap team, 0.02% goes to Biswap Earn (Multi-reward pool, Launchpools and other product features), and 0.01% used to buyback and burn BSW. The last mechanism has the intended effect of constantly putting upward price pressure on the BSW token.

How you make money on Biswap

You can stake BSW on the platform to farm additional rewards paid in BSW and other native protocol tokens. The protocol constantly earns 0.01% of all trading fees to be used to buyback and burn BSW. LPs also earn 0.15% of fees in return for providing liquidity on Biswap.
