Binance Labs, the venture capital and incubation arm of Binance, has officially invested $10 million USD into Lista DAO — a rapidly growing decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol in the BNB Chain ecosystem. This investment marks a significant milestone for Lista DAO, positioning it as a major player in the evolving LSDFi (Liquidity Staking + DeFi) landscape.
What Is Lista DAO?
lista DAO is a next-generation decentralized financial protocol that integrates liquid staking and decentralized stablecoins on the BNB Chain. Originally launched as Helio Protocol in 2022, the project rebranded to Lista DAO after merging with Synclub, a liquidity staking solution, forming the LSDFi Foundation in mid-2023.
The name “Lista” is derived from “liquid + staking,” reflecting its core focus: enabling users to stake assets while retaining liquidity through tradable tokens.
Why This Investment Matters
Binance Labs’ $10M commitment is more than just capital — it’s a strategic endorsement that signals confidence in Lista DAO’s vision and technology. The funding is intended to accelerate development, expand the protocol’s reach, and build robust infrastructure that supports multi-chain growth.
Specifically, the investment will help Lista DAO to:
🔹 Scale its technology and protocol features, especially in liquid staking and decentralized finance.
🔹 Expand beyond the BNB Chain to other major networks like Ethereum, Arbitrum, and zkSync.
🔹 Enhance global visibility through marketing, education, and community outreach initiatives.
🔹 Increase development resources, including team growth and technical innovation.
This kind of institutional backing from Binance Labs — which backs leading blockchain projects worldwide — amplifies trust and legitimacy in Lista DAO’s long-term potential.
Core Features and Functionality
1. Liquid Staking with slisBNB
Users can stake their BNB tokens and receive slisBNB, a liquid staking derivative that continues to earn Proof-of-Stake rewards while remaining usable in DeFi. Instead of locking assets forever, holders retain flexibility and liquidity.
2. Decentralized Stablecoin lisUSD
Through an over-collateralized system, participants can use liquid staking tokens (like slisBNB) or other crypto assets to mint lisUSD, a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar. This enables users to unlock liquidity without selling their staked assets.
3. Multi-Asset Collateral Support
Beyond BNB and slisBNB, the protocol supports a range of collateral types — including ETH, wBETH, and even other liquid staking derivatives — to borrow stablecoins, widening accessibility and usability.
4. Governance with LISTA Token
The emerging native token $LISTA governs the DAO. Holders can participate in voting on key protocol decisions, including upgrades, fees, and future integrations — ensuring community-driven development.
Ecosystem Growth & Recognition
Since Binance Labs’ investment, Lista DAO has seen strong adoption and ecosystem engagement. The protocol has been featured in Binance’s Megadrop launch campaigns, bringing broader exposure and incentives to the community.
Additionally:
🔸 Lista DAO’s Total Value Locked (TVL) has exceeded hundreds of millions of USD, demonstrating strong user participation in staking and lending.
🔸 The project maintains active collaborations with BNB Chain and other ecosystem partners.
🔸 Ongoing airdrops and incentive activities have further spurred user adoption and engagement.
Looking Ahead: Multi-Chain Expansion & Innovation
With the Binance Labs investment as a foundation, Lista DAO is now positioned to extend its services beyond the BNB Chain, exploring Ethereum and other Layer-2 networks. This strategic multi-chain expansion aims to unlock new liquidity pools and broaden the protocol’s utility in the global DeFi landscape.
Future plans discussed by the project include:
✅ Support for restaking and LRT (Liquid Restaking Tokens) to enhance capital efficiency.
✅ Wider integration of stablecoins into broader DeFi applications.
✅ More innovative collateral options and customizable financial products.
Conclusion
The $10 million investment from Binance Labs is a pivotal milestone for Lista DAO’s journey — empowering an emerging LSDFi project with the resources to innovate, expand, and compete in the broader decentralized finance ecosystem. With its dual-functionality model combining liquid staking and decentralized stablecoins, Lista DAO represents a compelling evolution in how crypto holders can earn yield, access liquidity, and participate in governance — all while contributing to a community-governed DeFi future.

As an AI computing public chain led by #BinanceLabs , #swanchain plans to conduct #tge (token generation event) in the third quarter of 2023. At present, the mainnet event is the last opportunity for "painless mining". For users who missed the early testnet activities, now is the best time to participate.

Why is now the best time to participate in the Swan Chain mainnet event?
Less competition, higher returns: The computing power requirements in the early stages of the mainnet are lower, so participants can obtain higher coin production returns. The earlier you participate, the more you can maximize your returns in a low-competition environment.
