# Cross Chain integration with Yearn ## Goals - Continue Yearn's bleeding-edge by identifying yield generating opportunities on non-Ethereum blockchains. These opportunities are including but not limited to the following: - Loans, yield farming - Automated market making - Insurance - DAO/VC via Credit Delegation - Make a btc sending portal with renbridge as backend like curve has for our vaults - Look at pointing vaults across chains if better yield is possible. ## Next Steps - Identify technical gaps to bridge over to other protocols whether manual or technical - Identify potential cross-chain partners to work on additional design for cross chain yield generation ## Cross Chain Targets ### Cosmos - [Stargate](https://stargate.cosmos.network/) - The protocol upgrade that will launch IBC on cosmos mainnet. Scheduled for Oct-Dec, should be before end of year. - currently 86% complete - [Cosmos Stargate Upgrade review: what’s new](https://medium.com/everstake/cosmos-stargate-upgrade-review-whats-new-20c94748f874) - [Ethermint](https://ethermint.zone/) - Ethermint is live - [Github page](https://github.com/ChainSafe/ethermint) - Ethermint is etherium ported to cosmos as a zone. - Funding can be proposed via Cosmos' defi working group [Unifi Dao](https://t.me/unificosmos) - [Unifi Dao webpage](https://unifi.finance/) ### Polkadot ### Tezos ### Cardano ### Binance Chain ### Bidao Chain #### [Bidao Chain](https://www.bidaochain.com/) - Looking to add YFI as a collateral partner for BAI, spoke with Long Zhang(COO) - [Whitepaper](https://www.bidaochain.com/static/docs/whitepaperBidao.pdf) ##### Bidao Chain is a new chain in ICO(until late Oct/early Nov) which is working on a stablecoin chain similar to MakerDAO/DAI on Ethereum. Bidao has 3 tokens for its ecosystem - BID, functions as a governance and staking token. Very much like MKR - BAI, collateral produced stablecoin - BNB, key collateral of Binance Chain and for BAI generation purposes. ###### Bidao Chain will have validators and function as a layer 2 on top of Binance Chain to remain chain agnostic ###### Existing collateral partnerships - Chainlink $LINK - Travala $AVA - Tellor $TRB - Tron $TRX - Quantum $QTUM - Ontology $ONT - Binance $BNB - $HUSD - $IOST
