About Yield Basis
YieldBasis is a DeFi protocol created by the founder of Curve Finance. It introduces a new way for BTC and ETH holders to earn sustainable yield by eliminating impermanent loss through a 2x leveraged Curve LP strategy.
The YB token powers this system, enabling participants to access liquidity provision strategies and unlock tokenized yield-bearing assets like ybBTC and ybETH.
Please note:
If you participated in the token sale, your YB tokens have already been credited to your Kraken portfolio. They will become tradable once markets are live.
Trading via the Kraken App and Instant Buy will be available once liquidity conditions are met.
Geographic restrictions may apply.

Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is to never reveal any details until shortly before launch – including which assets we are considering. All of Kraken’s available tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on our Listings Roadmap and social media profiles. Our client engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about which assets we may be making available in the future.
