Press Release
Flaming Farm Private Sale is Now Live

The deflationary yield farming platform, Flaming Farm, announced its public crowdsale this week. The event starts on December 10, 2020, at 10:00 AM UTC, following the release of their smart contract audit. The presale price for FFARM tokens, the network’s native governance token, is set at 0.15 ETH. You will need a minimum of 0.5 ETH to participate in the event. Interestingly, whale investors are capped at 20 ETH. The network has a presale hardcap of 600 ETH.
Why all the Hype?
Flaming Farm is unique because it is the first deflationary yield farming platform to hit the market. Yield Farming is the hottest feature in DeFi at this moment. These peer-to-peer lending protocols utilize large liquidity pools to provide users with the ability to stake their idle crypto and earn rewards.
Users and new projects can then take out short term loans from these pools. These loans are repaid directly back into the pool plus interest. This process adds more liquidity to the pool and increases the liquidity pool’s token value. Consequently, users gain interest and the added appreciation of the token.
Yield farming is an attractive option for new users because it doesn’t require any prior cryptocurrency understanding. Compared to trading, yield farming produces more dependable rewards and requires all-around less work. You don’t need to spend hours researching projects and market conditions to stake your unused crypto in a liquidity pool.
Transform the DeFi Sector Forever
Flaming Farm improves on the yield farming model with the introduction of a deflationary protocol. This network was designed to combat the biggest problem facing the DeFi sector today, inflation. Liquidity pools issue tokens to investors when they stake. The more they stake, the more tokens they receive.
These tokens are especially susceptible to inflation as there is no predictable monetary supply. Instead, there is a flood of new tokens in collaboration with mostly speculative investors. Together, these two factors spell a recipe for disaster in the form of run-off sales. Flaming Farm users escape this fate thanks to the intuitive minds behind this next-gen DeFi ecosystem.
Deflationary Protocol
Flaming Farm relies on a Token Value Control mechanism that automatically burns a certain percentage of the FFARM tokens in circulation based on the pools’ available liquidity. The developers have set this protocol to begin at 2.5% and increase based on the network’s liquidity. In this way, the system preemptively removes inflationary risks for users.
Self-Fulfilling ROIs
Notably, a percentage of all Flaming Farm’s network fees go back into the liquidity pools. The network charges a small fee every time users make transactions, trade, and stake in pools. This strategy creates a liquidity cycle that bolsters the platform’s pools and the governance token’s value.
Vote on Key Upgrades
Flaming Farm follows the inclusive governance models found in most second-generation DeFi platforms. Users gain the ability to vote on all vital changes to the network. These changes include updates, new pools, and fee changes. To participate in the governance model, you need to hold FFARM tokens. The more tokens you have, the more voting power you possess. This strategy ensures that the voting majority carries the most financial risk.
Flaming Farm – A Unique Opportunity in a Sea of CopyCats
A flood of yield farming platforms entered the market this year. However, none possess the powerful deflationary technologies utilized by Flaming Farm. In this way, the platform provides the DeFi sector with a better alternative to the status quo.

TradeSta Launches “Collateral Back” Campaign: 50% collateral back on First Liquidation for Traders

TradeSta, the next-gen decentralized perpetuals trading platform built on Avalanche c-chain, is giving traders a second chance — literally.
Starting Tuesday 20th May 2025, the platform has launched its TradeStaCollateralBack campaign, offering a 50% refund on collateral (up to $25 USDC) for users who get liquidated on their first trade during the promotional period.
This bold new initiative is part of TradeSta’s mission to make high-leverage DeFi trading more accessible, transparent, and forgiving for newcomers and seasoned traders alike.
The campaign runs from Tuesday, May 20 through Tuesday, June 3, 2025 at 23:59 UTC.
“At TradeSta, we’re building more than just another DEX — we’re creating a trading experience that’s fast, fair, and actually puts the user first,” said Kieron Cartledge, Founder and CEO of TradeSta. “This campaign is our way of saying: it’s okay to take a swing — we’ve got your back if you miss.”
🔥 Here’s How It Works
Eligible users who open a position and get liquidated during the campaign will receive 50% of their collateral back, up to $25 USDC — no strings attached.
To qualify:
- Minimum position size: $10 USDC
- Minimum leverage: 10x
- Must be the first loss from that wallet during the campaign
- Refunds are processed in USDC on Avalanche C-Chain
- Payouts sent within 72 working hours of liquidation
Whether you’re trading BTC, ETH, AVAX, gold, oil, or even RWAs, TradeSta gives you full control from start to finish. No KYC, no signups, just pure onchain execution — with lightning-fast trades, real-time pricing via Pyth Network.
✨ Why This Matters
Trading with leverage can be intimidating, especially for new users exploring DeFi for the first time. TradeSta’s campaign reduces the fear factor by offering a real incentive to test the waters — without getting burned.
“It’s not about encouraging risk,” Cartledge added. “It’s about rewarding participation and showing the community that DeFi doesn’t have to be cold, complex, or unforgiving.”
🚀 About TradeSta
TradeSta is a self-custodial perpetuals trading platform that allows users to trade crypto, commodities, FX, and real-world assets with up to 100x leverage — all without giving up control of their funds. Built on Avalanche & powered by Pyth Network, TradeSta combines DeFi values with CEX-like performance.
