About Squirrel Finance
Squirrel Finance is the first decentralized insurance solution for yield farming on BSC that instantly & automatically compensates users if their funds are locked or stolen. Although the risk of a "rug" or a code bug is small, Squirrel is built for users who want the extra protection. Squirrel wraps existing farms on BSC with a smart contract that deposits to the underlying farm (e.g. CAKE). This allows you to continue farming like normal, but with the added coverage. Then when a user goes to withdraw, Squirrel checks that the user received their expected deposited back. If they do not match, the user will automatically be compensated in the same withdrawal transaction for their insured value in the form of NUTS. There is no human involvement. Decentralized insurance, and automatic payouts. Simplified farming backed with NUTS insurance, Squirrel's governance token to manage the protocol & earn farm insurance fees.

Apricot
Apricot Lend provides standard lending and borrowing services: users deposit assets to earn interests, and use their deposited assets as collateral to borrow other assets. Apricot X-Farm provides cross-margin leveraged yield farming service for users to maximize yield from their existing holdings. Let's take USDT-USDC LP farming for example. In other leveraged yield farming protocols, users would need to own some amount of USDT and USDC before they can start farming the stablecoin pair. If they do not have USDT and USDC sitting in their wallet, they would have to swap other tokens into these stablecoins first. On Apricot X-Farm, users do not need to own any amount of USDT or USDC to start farming. Instead, they can collateralize their non-stablecoin assets to borrow the stablecoins with up to 3x leverage, and start farming USDT-USDC LP right away. These stablecoins will then be auto-pooled and staked for LP tokens, resulting in 3x farming yield.

Harvest Finance
Harvest is an international cooperative of humble farmers pooling resources together in order to earn DeFi yields. When farmers deposit, Harvest automatically farms the highest yields with these deposits using the latest farming techniques. Farming was highly manual and inconvenient for people that had a normal job and didn’t want to keep up with DeFi 24/7. We automate farming by doing regular harvesting of crops on over 100 different farms. Farm is a cashflow token for Harvest. When Harvest generates yields, 70% of these yields are used to increase the value of the deposits. Farm rewards are economic incentives provided by Harvest Finance. Farm token reward doesn't auto compound and need to be claimed if you want to deposit in the profit sharing or sell it.
