Binance and Mitosis Create Fast Lane for DeFi Yields on BNB Chain

Binance has partnered with Mitosis, a programmable liquidity Layer-1 chain, to launch the Liquidity Booster Program, an initiative aimed at expanding yield opportunities for decentralized finance (DeFi) users on the BNB Smart Chain. The program will distribute 15 million MITO tokens across multiple phases, with the first campaign set to begin on August 19, 2025. Users will be able to deposit BNB or USDT into Mitosis vaults via the Binance Wallet to participate in the token airdrop. The initiative is part of a broader effort to address liquidity fragmentation on the BNB Chain, which has one of the most active user bases in the crypto industry.

The Liquidity Booster Program is designed to allow idle capital to be converted into productive assets through Mitosis' programmable liquidity model. According to a Mitosis spokesperson, the collaboration with Binance and Lista DAO—currently securing over $2.8 billion in liquidity—aims to "open a fast lane on the BNB Chain where yield and utility work together for users and builders." The initiative is expected to enhance capital efficiency and unlock stacked yield opportunities for both retail and institutional investors. Users can now access yield-bearing assets like miBNB and maUSDT through Mitosis’ vaults, which automatically compound returns while maintaining liquidity.

This collaboration represents a strategic move by Mitosis to further establish its role in DeFi infrastructure. Earlier this month, Mitosis announced the launch of its mainnet and the $MITO token, which will serve as the native asset for programmable liquidity functions. The project has also outlined plans to explore the tokenization of real-world assets and the transformation of liquidity positions into liquid, tradable instruments. These developments position Mitosis as a key player in the ongoing evolution of DeFi, with a strong focus on building a more sustainable and efficient liquidity ecosystem.

Binance has previously demonstrated a commitment to strengthening the BNB Chain’s liquidity profile. In earlier 2025, the exchange launched a $100 million Permanent Liquidity Support Program to incentivize listings of BNB Chain tokens across major centralized exchanges. The Liquidity Booster Program further embeds Binance’s Web3 Wallet and Earn products into on-chain finance, reinforcing the exchange’s broader strategy of integrating DeFi with its existing product suite. By leveraging Lista DAO’s secured liquidity and Binance Earn’s base yields, the initiative aims to position the BNB Chain as a leading hub for sustainable DeFi growth.

The Liquidity Booster with Mitosis underscores the growing importance of programmable liquidity in the DeFi space. By combining Binance’s extensive user base and infrastructure with Mitosis’ innovative liquidity solutions and Lista DAO’s deep liquidity pools, the initiative creates a more efficient and accessible yield-generating environment. As DeFi continues to evolve, the ability to programmatically manage and optimize liquidity will likely become a critical factor in determining the long-term success of blockchain-based financial systems.
