What is Blast

The only Ethereum L2 with native yield for ETH and stablecoins. Airdrop now live.

The promised network, Blast, would launch as an optimistic rollup in February 2024, but its backers immediately began soliciting deposits into a smart contract “bridge.”

Blast’s development team, led by pseudonymous Blur co-founder Pacman, raised $20 million from venture capital firms Paradigm and Standard Crypto, joined by a motley crew of angel investors and crypto influencers.

Blast yield comes from ETH staking and RWA protocols. The yield from these decentralized protocols is passed back to Blast users automatically. The default interest rate on other L2s is 0%. On Blast, it’s 4% for ETH and 5% for stablecoins.

Our goal as contributors is to grow the on-chain economy with the highest-yield L2 possible. Community members who join our mission will have the opportunity to earn the Blast Airdrop. The first stage of the airdrop is [now live].

Blast is built on the principle that liquidity naturally gravitates towards higher yields. Traditional L2s offer a baseline interest rate of 0%, leading to asset depreciation over time. Blast changes this by integrating native yield mechanisms, ensuring your balance not only remains stable but grows.
