BENQI is a decentralised finance protocol that launched in 2021 on the Avalanche blockchain. It was built to bring lending and borrowing services to the Avalanche ecosystem, and it runs as a non-custodial liquidity market, which means users keep control of their own assets while the protocol matches lenders with borrowers through smart contracts. Because it sits on Avalanche, BENQI is designed around fast, low-cost transactions. QI is the protocol's native governance token: holders can take part in decisions about how BENQI is run, including proposals and changes to the protocol. It is a utility token for the network rather than a claim on any fixed payout. BENQI has become one of the more established lending protocols in the Avalanche ecosystem. On Digital Surge you can buy and hold QI in AUD, keep it in your account, or withdraw it to a wallet that supports the token.
