Binance Supports ETH 2.0 Staking

 

Binance Staking has launched support for ETH 2.0, allowing users to gain staking benefits from the ETH 2.0 upgrade coming on December 1, starting with the Beacon Chain launch. The rates start at an APY of up to 20%, which decreases as the amount of staked ETH increases.

Binance has said it will pay for users to build validators, bear the risk of on-chain penalty and forfeiture, and we will redistribute on-chain profits to users. BETH will be issued, a new wrapped token that is 1:1 pegged to ETH on the Ethereum blockchain. With BETH’s launch, we aim to support users who trade or hold ETH on Binance during the 18-24 months needed to lock in ETH on-chain.

Facebook's Libra Project which aimed to create its own stablecoin is rebranding in further efforts to distance itself from the original Facebook-led vision rolled out last year. The Libra efforts were slowed due to a negative response from regulators throughout 2020.

The group, composed of 27 member firms, announced Tuesday it was changing its name to Diem (the Latin term for “day”) as it gears up for the potential 2021 launch of a single, dollar-pegged stablecoin. The organization has also finalized its leadership team, which includes Dahlia Malkhi as chief technology officer, Christy Clark as chief of staff, Steve Bunnell as chief legal officer and Kiran Raj as executive vice president for growth and innovation and deputy general counsel.

MarketWatch reported that Fink talked about Bitcoin “during a conversation with former Bank of England Gov. Mark Carney at the Council on Foreign Relations. Fink went on to say that the cryptocurrency could possibly evolve into a global market asset, offering a rare positive statement from the respected asset manager, which may be interpreted by bullish bitcoin investors as a tacit endorsement.“
