The Malta-based exchange announced the listing of DeFi tokens on August 28, 2020, saying that these tokens cover a vast range of innovations in the decentralized finance sector ranging “from oracles and insurance to stablecoins and liquidity providers”.
Eight DeFi tokens including BAND added by OKEx
Amid the decentralized finance market’s rapid growth, the global cryptocurrency exchange OKEx has decided to add more high-promising tokens from the field. A total of eight tokens have been added by the exchange on its trading platform. These include Band protocol’s BAND token, yearn.finance’s governance token YFI, YFII.finance (YFII), Reserve Rights (RSR), Tellor (TRB), Nexus Mutual (wNXM), REN (REN), and JUST (JST).
According to the official listing announcement of the OKEx exchange, the spot trading of these eight tokens against the stablecoin Tether (USDT) was initiated on the day of the announcement at 7:00 am UTC while the trading of these tokens against the leading digital currency Bitcoin (BTC) and the second-ranked cryptocurrency Ethereum (ETH) started right after one hour.
The deposits of these tokens also commenced on August 28, 2020, at 4:00 am UTC. However, the withdrawals of these tokens were not allowed by the cryptocurrency exchange. Users will be able to make withdrawals from the 31st of August.
