Belt Finance
Crypto Overview
Overview
Belt Finance is a BSC-based (Binance Smart Chain) protocol offering automated yield optimization strategies through its belt.fi platform. The BELT token serves as the protocol's governance token, allowing holders to participate in decision-making and receive a share of protocol fees.
Purpose and Utility
The primary purpose of Belt Finance is to provide yield optimization services through automated vault strategies. Users can deposit various cryptocurrencies into Belt's vaults, which automatically rebalance to maximize returns. The BELT token enables governance participation and fee sharing.
Business Model Evaluation

The protocol's yield generation primarily comes from lending activities that generate interest (riba).
