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.

Lista DAO Explains Proof-of-Stake Staking for BNB Chain Beginners

Mon 1st Dec 2025
**Proof-of-Stake vs Proof-of-Work** Bitcoin's energy-intensive mining system wastes resources as miners compete to solve the same puzzle.

Visit the [BNB staking page](https://lista.org/liquid-staking/BNB) 2. Enter desired BNB amount in Stake section 3. Receive **slisBNB** liquid staking tokens 4. Earn approximately **1% annual return** **slisBNB Utility** - Use as collateral at Lista Lending - Mint slisBNBx for Binance Launchpool activities - Earn lending interest and trading fees simultaneously **Key Benefits** *Unlike high-risk memecoin trading*, staking provides steady, low-risk income through compound interest. slisBNB serves as your gateway to BNB Chain's DeFi ecosystem. *Ready to start earning consistent returns on your BNB holdings?*
