Major crypto exchange Binance will launch its first crypto lending product on Aug. 28, 2019.
According to an official announcement on Aug. 26, holders of Binance coin, Ethereum Classic and Tether will be able to lend their assets and earn interest through Binance's new service called Binance Lending.
The services will be available for subscription from Aug. 28 till Aug. 29, Binance noted in the announcement.
Lending products will have an initial 14-day period.
BNB will have the highest annualized interest rate of 15% while the rates for USDT and ETC amount to 10% and 7%, respectively.
The first interest calculation period will be from Aug. 29 till Sept. 10.
Binance added that interest payout time will take place immediately after the loan term matures.
The annualized interest rates for upcoming phases will be adjusted based on market reception during this initial phase, the company stated.
"If User A subscribes to 10 lots of BNB Lending, the interest earned at maturity date will be 0.057534 BNB x 10 = 0.57534 BNB.".
Binance updated its Lending FAQ by adding a new section "Binance Lending Service Agreement," claiming that the Binance Lending assets will be used in cryptocurrency leveraged borrowing business on Binance.com.
