Introducing UNI, YFI and SNX at Bitstamp with zero fees until the end of July!

We are further expanding our support for the growing DeFi space with another trio of new listings. The new assets each cover a unique use case and should be an exciting addition to the portfolios of both DeFi enthusiasts as well as first-time entrants to the space.

We are listing the following cryptocurrencies:

  • Uniswap (UNI) – an automated trading and liquidity protocol that enables decentralized trading of tokens through the Uniswap DEX
  • Yearn.finance (YFI) – a DeFi service created to help non-technical users optimize profits from reward farming
  • Synthetix (SNX) – a DeFi protocol for creating on-chain derivatives (called synths) based on both crypto and non-crypto assets

All of these cryptocurrencies will trade with zero fees until the end of July!

Please note that for the time being, these assets will not be available to our US customers.

About UNI:
Uniswap (UNI) is an automated open-source trading and liquidity protocol for Ethereum’s ERC-20 tokens. It uses template smart contracts that define standardized liquidity pools and compatible markets, allowing users to buy and sell tokens without requiring a counterparty on the other side of the trade.

About YFI:
Yearn Finance (YFI), stylized as yearn.finance, is an aggregator service for decentralized finance investors that automates processes to allow maximum profits from yield farming. It is aimed primarily at the investors who are not technically-minded or who want to engage in investing with a lower level of commitment.

About SNX:
Synthetix (SNX) is a decentralized finance protocol that provides on-chain exposure to a wide variety of crypto and non-crypto assets through digital derivatives. It offers its users access to highly-liquid synthetic assets, called synths, which are used to track and provide rewards on the underlying asset without the need for directly holding it.
