Stablecoin yields are still surprisingly high. I spent some time digging into a few of the larger opportunities and found that they're earning yield in very different ways. Some are taking Treasury exposure, some are running basis trades, and some are relying on market-neutral trading strategies. Here are 3 stablecoin products paying roughly 8-12% APY and the tradeoffs behind each: #1 - Fluid Lite Vault (Ethereum) ~8% to 9% APY Deposit USDC and it earns off looped yield-bearing stables. Lowest risk of the three, and the one I worry about least. About 70% of it sits in sUSDai, which is the part to actually pay attention to. That's earning from US Treasuries plus interest from AI companies borrowing to buy GPUs. Yeah, you read that right. The whole yield lives or dies on AI demand holding up. There's also a 0.05% withdrawal fee, and during that KelpDAO liquidity mess, instant withdrawals just stopped working, fee or not. #2 - mHYPER (Ethereum) ~9.5% to 12% APY Run by Hyperithm, a licensed shop out of T

Circle Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) is now live on @StellarOrg, enabling native @USDC to move across Stellar & major supported blockchains. At Crossmint, we’ve been working closely in the Stellar ecosystem with @MoneyGram & the Marshall Islands. Here's why it matters: https://t.co/l7LNLol3ck

•⁓ you can now move funds across chains privately on jumper yes, you heard that right one of the top DEX aggregators [@jumperapp], now fully supports private swaps and this was made possible through @HoudiniSwap, which enables users to move funds privately across chains of course i had to test it out myself, and i must say it's a really solid addition to the privacy eco i mean, not only can you do the usual swaps, bridges, earn, and many other things on jumper... you can now stay on the same platform and carry out private swaps without any stress another reason to lub the purple DEX aggregator you can check it out yourself just make the jump 💜

ZIGChain has now crossed $50M in TVL. What’s interesting is that 66% of that capital is in stablecoins, with over $33M in USDC deployed across yield products in the ecosystem. Users aren’t just holding assets here. They’re actively putting capital to work. And this is only the beginning of what the ecosystem can support.
