<a href="https://www.binance.com/en/futures/bfusd" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">BFUSD</a>, the first reward-bearing margin asset issued by a cryptocurrency exchange, was unveiled by <a href="https://www.binance.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Binance</a>, the global blockchain ecosystem that powers the biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the world by both trading volume and users. This cutting-edge margin asset significantly improves users’ experience on the biggest and most liquid cryptocurrency derivatives platform by enabling them to benefit from a greater reward rate when trading futures while holding the margin asset or a source of passive income while holding&nbsp;BFUSD. 
With a nearly 100% collateral value ratio, users may use BFUSD as leverage and exchange it for USD stablecoin with Binance 1:1, subject to appropriate buy and redemption fees. This makes BFUSD a compelling new option for futures trading margin. 
In order to collect funding fees and staking incentives, Binance funds BFUSD generates passive revenue by delta hedging cryptocurrency assets between spot and futures markets. 
Binance will compute and release two BFUSD Reward Rates (APY%) every day: 
<ul class="wp-block-list"> 
 <li>BFUSD holders with qualified USDⓈ-M Futures trading activity on that day will get a higher APY.</li> 
 <li>A Base APY for holders of BFUSD who did not engage in eligible USDⓈ-M Futures trading that day.</li> 
</ul> 
The reward rates, which never go below zero, are set by Binance based on the revenue from its investment and hedging strategy the day before. 
A dedicated BFUSD Reserve Fund will receive the remaining portion of the generated income, which will support the investment and hedging strategy by covering potential negative Funding Rates. The majority of the income will be distributed by Binance as a daily reward in the form of USDT, to be shared among BFUSD holders. Binance will use one million USDT to launch the Reserve Fund. 
Jeff Li, VP of Product at Binance stated:
