**Shield Mining** allows users (and projects) to provide X tokens to Project X Coverage Pool in order to increase the pool’s APY and therefore attract more coverage liquidity. Coverage providers will therefore receive rewards in BMI, USDT, and the project X token. 

Shield Mining will facilitate the growth of BMI’s TVL and unlock new marketing opportunities. 

**The value proposition for users:** 

* Developers and community members can promote their project coverage pool by depositing project X tokens and attracting liquidity with an increased APY. 
* Exposure to multi-token rewards.
