1. Harvest ft. Rari
August 2 — Harvest officially announced its FARMstead Pool at Rari Fuse. A place where anyone can borrow stablecoins against their $iFARM.

2. $FARM Gets Listed on ZB.COM
August 2/3 — Harvest’s main $FARM token gets listed on a popular Chinese Exchange ZB.com.
This listing marks the beginning of the $FARM expansion into Asia, with residents of countries like China, Singapore, Russia, or Korea being able to purchase $FARM faster straight from their bank accounts.
On top of that, it gives other exchanges in Asian regions a green flag to consider listing $FARM.

3. Ethereum Vault ft. StakeWise
August 5 — In a fruitful collaboration with StakeWise, Harvest launched a new Ethereum vault without impermanent loss. The vault nears $0.5M in deposits in 24 hours since launch.
Given the excitement around EIP1559 and ETH2 in general, we see this vault gaining traction with much more TVL on the horizon.
The vault includes Uniswap Fees, $iFARM, rETH, and $SWISE rewards.
