YIELD App Accelerates Its Mission Toward “Defi Banking in Your Pocket”

As we begin 2021, the YIELD App team wants to provide our community with a brief update on milestones reached, what we’re working on now, and where we’re heading. The last few months have seen tremendous developments at YIELD App, but we’re just getting started. We’re currently gearing up for huge months ahead, and believe our community will share our excitement about what’s coming down the pike.

We understand how eager everyone is about trying our platform and the importance of its wide release. After successful testing with over 300 early access users, we are thrilled to announce the public launch of the YIELD App platform in February. Indeed, this means everyone will be able to start making interest on stablecoins and YLD tokens using our web app.

Before moving onto what we’re currently working on, let’s recap some of YIELD App’s recent milestones:

• A successful raise of $4.9 million during our private and public sales
• Partnerships with DuckDAO, Trustswap, BnkToTheFuture and Merkle Science
• A smooth launch, distribution and listing of the YLD token
• Completion of YIELD App’s web application
• Onboarding of 300+ early access users
• Successful deployment of the DeFi Alpha I fund and achievement of APY goals
• Increased staff body to 25 full-time members
• Secured the regulatory framework required for banking services
  

Although we’re extremely proud of our achievements over the last few months, we know there’s a lot more work to be done. So, in order to keep a clear trajectory, we’ve set the following objectives for Q1 2021:‍
