USDY Goes Live on ICRYPEX

Ondo Finance is excited to share that Ondo US Dollar Yield (USDY), a tokenized note secured by short-term US Treasuries, is now live on ICRYPEX—a prominent digital asset platform. This debut introduces one of the most popular yieldcoins, by both the number of holders and total value locked (TVL), to ICRYPEX's users.

With over $680M in TVL across multiple blockchains, USDY currently offers a 4.29% APY, updated monthly, and enables global (non-US) individual and institutional investors to access the utility of stablecoins combined with an attractive yield and the institutional-grade investor protections of traditional finance.

Katie Wheeler, VP of Partnerships at Ondo Finance, stated: “We’re thrilled to see ICRYPEX add support for USDY, providing a critical access point for both institutions and retail customers to acquire a truly global and composable yieldcoin.” 
Gökalp İçer CEO of ICRYPEX, added: “The addition of USDY to the ICRYPEX platform offers our users a unique opportunity to enjoy both stability and yield.”
