Venus Flux Streamlines DeFi with Four-Button Interface on BNB Chain

Venus Protocol has launched its Fixed-Term Vault Cycle 1 on BNB Chain, offering a different approach to DeFi yields. **Key Details:** - Collateral: $XAUm, a tokenized gold asset from Matrixdock backed by 99.99% purity LBMA-accredited physical gold - Target rate: ~5.4% APR (variable) - Term: 30-day lock period - Capacity: 1M USDT - Supply window: Closes June 17 Unlike typical DeFi vaults that rely on trading strategies or farming incentives, this structure uses over-collateralized real-world assets with transparent on-chain settlement. Matrixdock is described as Asia's leading RWA tokenization platform. The vault accepts USDT deposits. [Supply here](https://venus.io/#/vaults?chainId=56) *Capital at risk.*

Venus has introduced a Fixed-Term Vault designed to solve a persistent challenge in DeFi: constantly fluctuating on-chain rates that complicate capital planning. The vault operates on three core principles: - **Collateral visible in advance** - Users know what assets back their positions before committing - **Settlement defined upfront** - Clear end dates eliminate uncertainty - **Parameters published before launch** - All terms are transparent from the start The product targets participants who need predictability when managing capital over specific time periods. By removing mid-cycle surprises, the Fixed-Term Vault offers a more structured approach to DeFi lending and borrowing. This launch represents Venus's response to user feedback about the difficulty of planning around variable rates in decentralized finance.
