The Venus protocol is a DeFi project that is built on the Binance Smart Chain. It is a lending and borrowing platform where users can earn interest on their tokens. Venus also allows users to mint the protocol’s native token (VAI), a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US dollar. The protocol aims to become the Aave of Binance, creating a unique DeFi marketplace. Using the Binance Smart Chain allows Venus to charge low fees and make high speed transactions. The Venus protocol creates pegged assets when collateral is supplied, called vTokens. vBTC is one such token, representing the unit of the collateral supplied and can be used as a redemption tool. Essentially, vTokens are receipts for the assets you supplied. Unlike your standard 1:1 peg, vBTC is pegged at 1:49, with the current price at around US$700.
