Crypto earn, explained · steady yield over hype
We're funded by exchange referral commissions, so you have a right to know: where that money comes from, and whether it affects how honestly we talk to you.
Yuanbao Academy contains promotional links. When you sign up and use Binance or OKX through our links and invite codes, you get a fee discount and we earn a referral commission. That commission is paid by the exchange and costs you nothing extra.
This site has no ad slots, and we don't sell courses or sneak in side deals. What keeps it running (the domain, the server, the time spent writing) comes mainly from one source: exchange referral commissions. When you sign up with our invite code and trade, the exchange — under its own referral program — returns a portion of the fees you pay to us as a referral commission. This is a common way content sites like ours stay funded, and one we're happy to tell you about plainly.
Enter the matching invite code when you sign up and you can usually get whatever fee discount the exchange is offering (the exact rate and validity follow the exchange's own promotion page). We only ever use these two codes — we won't show you different codes on different pages.
This is the point we most want to make clear. Earning a referral commission does mean we benefit when you sign up — which is all the more reason to read our content with a healthy dose of skepticism. What we can do is keep the rules out in the open:
In the end, whether you can trust us comes down to whether the articles themselves cover the risks thoroughly. That's for you to judge.
Every link on the site that points to Binance or OKX sign-up goes through this site's redirect pages (/go/binance.html, /go/okx.html) before jumping to the exchange, and opens in a new browser tab. We do this partly so we can manage them in one place, and partly so you can clearly see that 'this is a promotional link.' We won't disguise a promotional link as a plain content link.
Whether you use our invite code is entirely your choice, and skipping the discount doesn't affect your normal use of an exchange. But remember: which exchange to join, how much money to put in, and which products to buy are all decisions you should make for yourself. Everything on this site is for educational reference only and is not investment advice. Before you act, read through our risk disclaimer.
