PANews reported on January 22nd that Mezo has officially launched its decentralized lending layer centered on BTC, supporting BTC-collateralized lending, stablecoin issuance, and an on-chain circular economy. Mezo employs a dual-token mechanism: users lock up BTC to earn veBTC, receiving BTC fees generated from on-chain activities; locking up MEZO tokens can amplify BTC returns up to 5x and participate in incentive-driven governance. The total supply of MEZO is 1 billion, with 40% allocated to the community. Airdrops will be distributed to wallets with a history of lending activity on platforms such as Aave, MakerDAO, and Compound. Users can check airdrop eligibility and pre-deposit through bankfree.mezo.org, with current annualized returns reaching approximately 34%.
