Binance Launches KernelDAO Megadrop Ahead of KERNEL Token Listing

Published by

Binance has introduced its fourth Megadrop project, KernelDAO (KERNEL), in a fresh announcement that’s already turning heads. The upcoming launch has sparked excitement across the crypto space, especially among restaking enthusiasts. Traders are now gearing up for the KERNEL token listing, which promises early access and potential rewards.

But what exactly is KernelDAO, and why is it creating so much buzz?

From exclusive listings to strategic partnerships, here’s everything you need to know about Binance’s latest move.

Key Dates and Trading Details

Starting April 9 at 00:00 UTC, users can take part in the Megadrop event and earn rewards. Binance also confirmed that it will be the first exchange to list the KERNEL token, giving users early access to this new restaking project.

The event will run from April 9 to April 13. Binance will list the KERNEL token on April 14 at 12:00 UTC, offering five trading pairs:

  • KERNEL/USDT
  • KERNEL/BNB
  • KERNEL/USDC
  • KERNEL/FDUSD
  • KERNEL/TRY

A Seed Tag will be added to the KERNEL token, highlighting it as a new asset that comes with higher risk and price volatility.

What is KernelDAO?

KernelDAO is a shared restaking protocol built on the BNB Chain. It allows users to restake BNB, BTC, and other yield-generating assets in order to earn additional rewards.

The token has a total supply of 1 billion, with 162.3 million (16.23%) available in the initial circulation. Each user can receive up to 320,000 tokens during the Megadrop.

Binance Keeps Pushing Innovation

With the launch of KernelDAO, Binance continues to strengthen its position as a global leader in the crypto exchange space. Earlier this month, Binance added support for the Bitcoin staking protocol Babylon, showing its commitment to backing cutting-edge blockchain projects. Other upcoming launches include Hyperliquid, Mantle, and Kaspa.

Making Crypto More Accessible with Worldpay

Binance has also partnered with Worldpay, a public payment processing company, to allow users to buy crypto through Apple Pay and Google Pay using its fiat onramp system. The exchange said this move is designed to make crypto more accessible, especially in regions with low credit card usage but high mobile phone adoption.

In related news, former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has been appointed as an advisor to Pakistan’s newly formed Crypto Council. The council, which held its first meeting in March, is focused on building crypto regulations and encouraging investment in the sector. CZ’s involvement is seen as a key step in helping the country shape its crypto future.

As the restaking race heats up, all eyes are now on how KernelDAO will perform in the wild.
