Security and tokenomics

Andre Cronje, the founder of the project, is committed to keeping the platform’s origins transparent, noting that even after auditing the code, yearn.finance cannot guarantee 100% security – DeFi comes with inherent risk. Yearn.finance YFI internal token has a fixed supply of 30,000 coins. YFI is a freely traded token with widely available pairs for cryptocurrencies, stablecoins and fiat currencies. The yEarn protocol component allows users to deposit any stablecoin: DAI, USDC, USDT, TUSD, sUSD, and more.

YFI can be purchased on many exchanges, but the main ones are:

• Binance;
• OKEx;
• Huobi Global;

To participate in the protocol, users must stake their YFI in a governance contract. They receive voting rights and a percentage of the protocol profits for each of Yearn's products at regular intervals. To claim the reward, users must vote, and once they vote, their YFI tokens will be locked up for three days, meaning they will not be able to unstake the asset.
