What is BENQI?
Avalanche products
BENQI provides lending markets and liquid staking on Avalanche. Depositors supply assets to lending pools and earn interest. Borrowers take overcollateralized loans. Core markets serve liquid assets, while isolated markets use separate risk arrangements. Liquid staking issues sAVAX for deposited AVAX. That receipt remains usable in compatible DeFi applications. Ignite provides another route for deploying Avalanche validators.
QI and BENQI Miles
QI’s total supply is 7.2 billion tokens. Staking QI generates BENQI Miles, previously called veQI. Miles accumulate over time rather than being claimed manually. Their balance can rise to 100 times the amount of QI staked. Unstaking any QI resets all accumulated Miles to zero. Miles support Node Voting. Those votes direct the community-controlled portion of BENQI’s AVAX validator delegations. The current split assigns 35% to this voting pool and 65% to an open pool. The planned instant-accrual locking option is separate from the existing gradual-accrual system.
