The cryptocurrency market has recently rebounded amid positive developments, with major coins like BNB breaking their downtrend lines since early June. This has restored some short-term market confidence. However, many investors remain underwater, waiting for prices to recover.
Instead of passively holding assets, you can generate cash flow and reduce your cost basis through strategies like lending, staking, or liquidity mining. This guide will walk BNB holders through earning 100% annualized yields using their holdings.
We'll explore Piggy Finance, a decentralized lending protocol on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Let's dive into the step-by-step process.

Stake BNB to Borrow PUSD
- Connect your wallet to Piggy Finance
- Navigate to "Borrow & Repay" > "Open Piggy Bank"
- Deposit BNB as collateral
Borrow PUSD while maintaining 180-200% collateral ratio for safety
- Example: $1,920 BNB collateral โ borrow ~$1,000 PUSD
Key Risk: If BNB price drops significantly, your position may face liquidation.
Provide Liquidity to Stability Pool
- Go to "Stability Pool"
Deposit borrowed PUSD to earn:
- PIGGY token rewards
- Discounted BNB from liquidations
๐ Maximize your yield strategies
Repay Loan and Withdraw Collateral
To exit your position:
- Withdraw PUSD from Stability Pool
- Repay PUSD debt in "Borrow & Repay" section
You may need to:
- Claim PIGGY rewards
- Swap some assets to cover remaining debt
- Once debt is cleared, withdraw your BNB collateral
Provide PIGGY/BNB Liquidity
For additional yield opportunities:
- Obtain PIGGY/BNB LP tokens via PancakeSwap
- Stake LP tokens in Piggy's "Mining" section
- Earn trading fees + PIGGY rewards
Note: This exposes you to impermanent loss if token ratios change significantly.
