Background

ListaDAO

Lista DAO functions as a open-source liquidity protocol for earning yields on collateralized Crypto assets (BNB/ETH/Stablecoins) and borrowing of our decentralized stablecoin, lisUSD, also known as a "Destablecoin".

It uses and expands the proven MakerDAO model for a decentralized, unbiased, collateral-backed destablecoin.

The protocol consists of a dual token model (lisUSD and LISTA) and a set of mechanisms that support instant conversions, asset collateralization, borrowing, yield farming, etc. We are native to the BNB Chain ecosystem and have plans to expand to multiple chains in the near future.

The protocol is built by DeFi and smart contract experts with the aim to position the world-class revolutionary lisUSD Destablecoin as the most widely used one, by leveraging Proof-of-Stake (PoS) rewards and yield-bearing assets.
