Standard Protocol is joining the Blast Network to begin a new phase of growth. This collaboration promotes an innovative concept known as native yield, potentially setting new standards for DeFi engagement and community empowerment.

We are thrilled to announce that Standard Protocol has integrated with Blast Network, marking a significant stride towards innovation and enhanced DeFi services for our community.

From our inception, through our initial launches on Ethereum and Polygon, to our recent partnership with Mode Network, our journey has been fueled by a vision for a more accessible ecosystem. Our leap to Blast, renowned for its swift transactions and low fees — and the only Ethereum L2 with native yield for ETH and stablecoins — continues our quest to democratize finance.

Why Blast Network?

Choosing Blast Network aligns with our goal for a scalable, efficient DeFi ecosystem. Blast, a standout in Ethereum’s Layer 2 solutions, offers an EVM-equivalent network that boosts scalability and slashes fees, optimizing the DeFi experience. Its unique native yield feature on assets like ETH and stablecoins allows for passive income, while its dApp migration ease and potential NFT innovations promise community empowerment and innovation.

User Benefits

The Blast integration enhances Standard Protocol’s role as the decentralized Robinhood of DeFi, offering users:

  • Reduced Transaction Costs: Significantly lower fees make transactions more economical.
  • Enhanced Speed and Efficiency: Quick transaction processing means faster trades and fund access.
  • Increased Scalability: Blast’s capacity ensures our platform’s performance keeps pace with our growing community.

Looking Ahead: 2024 Roadmap

Our 2024 roadmap is packed with exciting updates, including platform enhancements and community initiatives. The Blast integration is just the start; we plan to continue growing our order book DEX infrastructure and make continued upgrades to our UI to make DeFi trading more intuitive.

Blast Launch Promotion

To celebrate, we are running two campaigns: Phase 1 on Intract and Phase 2 on Zealy. The Intract campaign will take place from March 8th to March 15th, 2024. The Zealy campaign is set to launch in mid-March.
