We’re thrilled to introduce the TVL Incentive Program #3, a groundbreaking initiative to propel BNB and Total Value Locked (TVL) growth for projects on opBNB and BSC. This program is designed to enhance BNB/liquid staking BNB(lstBNB) lock-up and incentivize the ecosystem to grow TVL through a competitive challenge with substantial rewards.

Please be sure to complete the submission form in full and include the following information:

  • project's name,
  • which chain are you deployed on,
  • all relevant contract addresses.

 Challenge Overview

Here's everything you need to know about the two parts of the program:

  • Part A: Focuses on encouraging the lock-up of BNB tokens and welcoming participation from all DeFi platforms that support BNB staking.
  • Part B: Invites DeFi projects to compete for Total Value Locked (TVL), fostering innovation and growth within the ecosystem.

Part A: BNB Lock-up Challenge – Battle for a $100,000 Prize Pool!

This challenge is open to all DeFi platforms that support BNB. There is no limit on deployment time, just submit your application through this form.
