anchored·4RPYFM…dfwGSummary
Goose Finance is an anonymous-team yield farming and decentralized exchange protocol launched on Binance Smart Chain in February 2021, best known for its EGG governance and reward token. The protocol achieved rapid early traction, reaching third-most-popular DeFi app on BSC within one month, before its EGG token collapsed more than 99% from an all-time high near $172. A post-audit smart contract exploit in March 2026 drained approximately $8,000 via a share accounting flaw, and independent analysts have flagged the layered farming tokenomics as structurally unsustainable.
