Question 2

What is Ondo US Dollar Yield (USDY) used for?

Accepted Answer

USDY serves as a bearer instrument that offers a variable yield starting at 5% Annual Percentage Yield (APY), appealing to those looking for a mix of stability and profitability in their investment. It operates similarly to stablecoins in terms of accessibility but stands out due to its secured backing and yield potential. USDY can be minted or redeemed directly with Ondo by both individuals and institutions without the need for accreditation. This process allows for daily engagement, promoting ease of access and participation in the financial instrument. After a waiting period of 40-50 days post-minting, USDY tokens can be transferred on-chain to investors who meet specific eligibility criteria, including non-US persons located outside the United States.
