New stable coin & more DeFi for eGold holders via Bidao partnership

We’re excited to announce that we’re working with Bidao to make eGold usable as collateral for issuing the multi-asset backed stable coin BAI, which will also be issued on the Elrond mainnet.

Bidao is building a Layer-2 DeFi solution that will integrate with multiple different chains. The native assets of the different chains can be locked into Collateralized Debt Positions (CDPs) to issue BAI, a trustless meta-stable coin that is algorithmically pegged to the USD.

The collaboration is important for the Elrond ecosystem as it enables eGold holders to participate in cross-chain DeFi opportunities while simultaneously holding onto their preferred asset, and brings an additional stable coin on our blockchain.

eGold is Now Listed on Tradesilvania Exchange & Fiat Ramp!

We’re excited to announce that eGold has been listed on cryptocurrency exchange & fiat gateway Tradesilvania!

Tradesilvania is currently waiving its fiat top-up fees for the next 2 months and only charges between 0.3% and 1% per trade, making it an attractive on-ramp option for EUR & RON.

The listing is important for the Elrond ecosystem as it offers another convenient avenue for onboarding users and is particularly interesting for our large Romanian community due to direct access to eGold using local currency.

More eGold staking is coming! 🔥

We’re excited to announce that more eGold staking is coming! The additional staking will happen in a queue, where participants will be rewarded for being ready to step in for unstaked & undelegated amounts.

• Delegate min 10 eGold in the Delegators Queue
• 4,000 eGold / week rewarded to all participants, up to 20% APR
• unDelegated eGold replaced from Delegators Queue immediately
• 10 days unbonding after unDelegate

✅ Extra: Delegation rewards will be claimable

Phase 2: Validators Queue - at Mainnet Upgrade

• Add 2,500 eGold/node to the Validators Queue
• 5,000 eGold/week rewarded to sum of Validators & Delegators Queues, up to 20% APR
• unStaked Validators replaced from Validators Queue immediately
• 10 days unbonding after unStake

✅ Validator & Delegator rewards are unchanged in Phase 1 & 2

Subsequent phases will add:

• increased number of nodes
• “compound” option for validator rewards
