Blast: The Layer 2 with Native Yield
Explore Blast, the Ethereum L2 that offers native yield on ETH and stablecoins through auto-rebasing.
What Is Blast?
Blast is an Ethereum Layer 2 that distinguishes itself by offering native yield on ETH and stablecoins. When you bridge ETH to Blast, it automatically earns staking yield. Stablecoins earn yield through T-bill protocols.
Native Yield Mechanism
- ETH: Bridged ETH is staked on Ethereum L1, and the yield is auto-distributed to Blast users
- USDB: Blast's native stablecoin earns yield from T-bills via MakerDAO
- Auto-rebasing: Balances increase automatically — you see yields in real time
Ecosystem
Thruster DEX, Juice Finance, Hyperlock, and Pac Finance are key Blast protocols. The chain attracted significant TVL through its points program and unique yield proposition.
