About Benqi

BENQI is a DeFi protocol built on the Avalanche blockchain offering liquid staking, lending and borrowing, and validator bootstrapping services. Its core products include sAVAX, a yield-bearing liquid staking token that allows users to stake AVAX while retaining liquidity for use as collateral or in DEX pools, and a lending market where users can supply assets to earn interest or borrow against their holdings. The Ignite product lowers the barrier to running an Avalanche validator by reducing the upfront requirement from 2,000 AVAX to a weekly fee starting at 8 AVAX. BENQI also offers a Node Voting mechanism where users can direct AVAX delegation to validators using accumulated Miles. The protocol is audited by multiple security firms including Halborn, Zellic, Cyfrin, and Certora, and integrates with Chainlink oracles and institutional custodians such as Fireblocks and BitGo.
