What is Alpaca Finance?

Alpaca Finance is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that lets you do leveraged yield farming on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and Sonic (formerly Fantom). It’s fully community-driven, which means the people who use it also help run it through governance. It’s been like that since day one — there was no pre-sale and no investors when it launched.

The platform works like a lending protocol where users can trade with leverage. On one side, you can lend your tokens (LPs) and earn interest, and on the other, you can borrow capital to boost your farming position. This strategy is called “leveraged yield farming,” where you farm with borrowed funds to increase potential returns.

The goal of the protocol is to give lenders steady returns and offer borrowers undercollateralized loans (you only have to put up part of the value yourself) for leveraged yield farming. Basically, it’s all about helping users maximize their profits and improve liquidity on connected decentralized exchanges (DEXs) by connecting lenders and borrowers more efficiently.

How does Alpaca Finance work?

Alpaca Finance is a decentralized lending protocol that runs on networks like Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and Sonic. It lets people do leveraged yield farming, bringing lenders and yield farmers together in a safe, efficient DeFi setup.

Here’s how it works:

  • Lenders: Lenders deposit tokens into lending pools on Alpaca Finance. In return, they earn interest based on how much borrowing demand there is.
  • Yield farmers: Users borrow assets from those pools to boost their farming positions using leverage. That means they can potentially earn more with a smaller upfront investment (but yeah, more risk too).
  • Liquidations: If someone’s farming position drops too low in value, smart contracts automatically liquidate it to protect the pools from losses.

Who are the founders of Alpaca Finance (ALPACA)?

Alpaca Finance launched in 2021 on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) as a fair launch project—no pre-sale, no investors. It started with lending pools and the ALPACA governance token, and about a month later, leveraged yield farming was rolled out.

The team behind Alpaca Finance is anonymous, which is pretty common in DeFi. They describe themselves as a group of experienced developers and finance nerds focused on building secure, efficient DeFi tools.

What can you do with ALPACA token?

ALPACA is the main token of the lending protocol and plays a big role in the ecosystem. It’s used for staking, governance, and as a reward for active users.

Here’s what you can do with it:

  • Staking: Stake your ALPACA in pools like Grazing Range. You’ll earn rewards in ALPACA or sometimes other tokens offered on the platform.
  • Governance: If you stake your tokens, you get to vote on important decisions—like protocol changes, reward tweaks, or new features.
  • Rewards: Active users (like those doing leveraged farming or adding liquidity) can earn ALPACA as a reward. It’s a way to keep the community engaged and active.
  • Protocol fees: A cut of transaction fees (like when smart contracts are executed) goes back to the community—either through ALPACA buybacks or by rewarding stakers.
