Let's welcome Trader Joe to the BNB Chain community as we take a deeper look at 7 reasons to make you trade with Trader Joe.
What is Trader Joe?
Trader Joe is a one-stop decentralized trading dApp launching on BNB Chain in Q1 of 2023. Trader Joe offers a comprehensive DeFi platform where users can trade, lend and leverage, participate in a launchpad and shop for NFTs.
The origins of Joe were born from a blended desire to create a unique and truly innovative trading platform that would serve a global and burgeoning audience at the frontier of the decentralized finance industry.
Since launching, Trader Joe has attracted over $1.5 billion in assets and has gained backing from some of the most widely recognized investors in the industry including Three Arrows Capital, DeFiance Capital, GBV Capital, Mechanism Capital, and more.
According to DeFillama, Trader Joe has more than $110 million in TVL on the dApp. Trader Joe stands apart from other DeFi platforms by giving users multiple trading features and options paired with an intuitive UI.
Why Launch on BNB Chain?
BNB Chain is the largest blockchain in terms of daily active users processing millions of transactions with some of the lowest fees. DappBay has listed close to 1000 BNB Chain dApps with more than a million Web3 daily users accessing different types of decentralized applications. The addition of Trader Joe to BNB Chain gives BNB Chain users access to the most efficient AMM in DeFi while giving Trader Joe access to users on one of the most active L1 blockchains.
Alvin Kan, Director of Growth and Ops at BNB Chain said: “the addition of the Trader Joe DEX and Joepegs NFT Marketplace will greatly enhance the offerings available to our community. The ability to discover and trade premium digital collectibles, as well as participate in the launch of new NFT collections, is a major benefit for our community. We believe the efficiency and security of BNB Chain, combined with the user-friendly offerings of the Trader Joe DEX and Joepegs NFT Marketplace, will drive growth and success for the wider NFT and DeFi ecosystem.”
7 Reasons to Trade with Trader Joe

Traders can trade top tokens, large-cap tokens, DeFi tokens, stablecoins, and GameFi tokens on BNB Chain, Avalanche, and Arbitrum One on Trader Joe.

An intuitive UI means you can add a token to your wallet with the click of a button.
2. Provide liquidity
Liquidity providers can provide liquidity on one of several liquidity pools at Trader Joe. Users can provide liquidity by selecting a pool, and depositing a selected amount of two tokens. When a trader makes a trade in a particular pool on Trader Joe, LPs earn an interest in fees for providing liquidity in that pool. Liquidity Book's UI has the ability to concentrate liquidity at a certain distance or ‘radius’ around a specific price.
3. Farm
