Here’s some more information about the tokens:
BNB Chain (BNB) is a decentralized, interoperable blockchain ecosystem created by Binance, a prominent centralized cryptocurrency exchange. The multi-chain network supports smart contracts, utilizes the proof-of-staked-authority (PoSA) consensus mechanism for scalability and allows for the development of large-scale decentralized applications (dApps) for DeFi, metaverse, gaming and more. BNB, formerly known as Binance Coin, is the native token of the protocol used to pay for network transaction fees, make purchases within its ecosystem of dApps and reduce trading fees on the Binance exchange.
Avantis (AVNT) is a perpetual DEX on Base offering high-leverage trading across crypto, forex, and commodities with synthetic liquidity, loss protection, and dynamic risk tranches. STBL (STBL) is an RWA-backed stablecoin protocol that uses a yield-splitting mechanism to turn yield-bearing assets into liquid dollar-stable tokens. Users deposit high-quality RWAs (like tokenized treasuries or money-market funds), receive USST as a stablecoin, and keep a separate yield claim.
