Bella Flex Savings v1 Went Live in Sandbox Environment
On Dec 1st, Bella Flex Savings v1 officially went live in sandbox environment.
Flex Savings v1 will not be deployed to Ethereum mainnet, rather it will be deployed to a sandbox environment of Ethereum fork (mainnet snapshot). Security audit reports of Flex Savings v1 are going to be published, at the same time we’re going to implement a major upgrade to Flex Savings v2.
Flex Savings v1 is essentially a smart pool that routes funds to DeFi protocols with the most competitive return. In essence, we strive to help our users the most attractive, risk-adjusted return in the market. Think of Flex Savings as a hedge fund, but more transparent, efficient, and decentralized.
With Bella Flex Savings v1, users can deposit stablecoins and other tokens to earn attractive yields automatically. The smart contract then automatically routes the fund to different mining pools under ever-updating investment strategies.
There are seven crypto assets supported in the first batch. More will be added in the near future. Native interest rates for crypto assets usually range from 5% to 15% APY.

Thoughts on Multi-Million Dollar DeFi Applications by Bella Protocol Team
On Nov 23rd, Bella Protocol released an article explaining their thoughts on multi-million dollar DeFi applications.
The past few weeks have not been easy for the DeFi world. Multiple attacks have been conducted on DeFi protocols, millions of dollars have been stolen. Most of these targeted DeFi protocols have been audited, yet vulnerabilities have still been exploited.
At Bella, it is our mission to bring mass adoption to crypto and DeFi. This means that we will be the first stop for newcomers to crypto who want to invest in DeFi. We will be handling their trust and life-savings. Therefore, we take security as the highest priority.
Our team has made a decision to implement a major upgrade to Flex Savings v2. Therefore, Flex Savings v1 will not be deployed to Ethereum mainnet, rather it will be deployed to a sandbox environment of Ethereum fork (mainnet snapshot). Security audit reports are also going to be published.
We do appreciate every bit of your patience and understanding. Together, we are working towards a healthier, more robust and mature world of DeFi.
