Yield Farming Competition | Leech Protocol

Leech Protocol is an Automated Cross-Chain Yield Aggregator. We are in the final stages of development and will soon open the platform for use.

To ensure nobody gets bored, we decided to make a farming competition to see who is the strongest yield farmer in our community and who can farm on stablecoins and share the $3000 prize pool. Not bad, right? You will farm, and we’ll increase your final APR 😃

Meet the contest for all Degen / DeFi users who want to show their skills in finding and implementing yield farm strategies on Stable Coins inside EVM Chains!

We know your ability to farm with a high APR on shitcoins. Can you replicate this success with stablecoins? Can you achieve a minimum return of 1% on your deposit within a week? Can you do better? We will significantly increase the APR for the top performers!

We want to see what you can do and what strategies you use. The most successful participants will be invited to become our ambassadors and advisors.

Your objective is to maximize your earnings through Stable Farming, which rewards you for providing liquidity in stablecoins.

  1. Farming / Liquidity mining. For example Pancake, Biswap, Thena, Camelot, Uniswap, Trader Joe, Sushiswap, etc
