- Low participation threshold: Only 1 GT or 10 USDT is required to participate, significantly lowering the barrier for retail investors to invest in early projects.
- Multi-asset support: Supports staking multiple tokens such as GT, USDT, BTC, ETH, GUSD, providing flexible options.
- Zero lock-up and real-time returns: Supports unstaking at any time, with earnings settled hourly, achieving a balance between "asset liquidity" and "yield."
- Dual-track subscription mechanism: In some projects, a dual-track system of USD1 and GT is introduced, with 80% of the allocation going to the stablecoin pool and 20% reserved for the platform token, thus avoiding GT price Volatility risk has attracted a large amount of stable funds to the exchange.
