First Edition of Yak Rush: Recap and 50,000,000 Mini Yak Claim Details


Yield Yak has been proud to feature fellow native project, Trader Joe’s new lending platform. This was their first edition of Yak Rushyieldyak.com, where deposits into Banker Joe strategies became eligible for a Mini Yak airdrop. Yield Yak has been taking daily depositor snapshots at random times, and each wallet’s share of the Yak Rush airdrop will be calculated by its proportional share of the pools, over the qualifying period.
Response from the Yak community has blown away expectations: over $225M has been deposited in YY Banker Joe farms, including over $90M deposited into the Banker Joe $AVAX strategy alone.
When airdrop?
Details:
- Yak Rush was a huge success which has generated 1,891 AVAX in performance fees for the Yield Yak community in a short-timeframe. All of this has been converted into Mini Yak in preparation for the airdrop.
- The Yak Treasury has agreed to fully match this amount in Mini Yak, plus a top-up to ensure a round number for Yakheads
This brings the total number of Mini Yak eligible for claiming to 50,000,000 mYAK
How to claim your Mini Yak
