What is Basilisk (BSX)?
Basilisk (BSX) is a Kusama-based parachain — a liquidity protocol with a modular, automated market maker (AMM) design. It allows early stage crypto projects to bootstrap liquidity in a fair and efficient manner by choosing the AMM model that best fits their project’s unique use case. BSX is the native token of Basilisk. It is used to propose and vote on referendums and participate in council elections affecting the future direction of the protocol.
Will Kraken make more assets available?
Yes! But our policy is to never reveal any details until shortly before launch – including which assets we are considering. All of Kraken’s available tokens can be found here, and all future tokens will be announced on Kraken’s blog and social media profiles. Our client engagement specialists cannot answer any questions about which assets we may be listing in the future.
