What is Ondo US Dollar Yield?

USDY was launched in 2023 by Ondo Finance. It looks like a stablecoin but is a tokenized debt instrument: the holder has a claim secured by short-term US government securities and bank deposits.

The product is intended for individuals and institutions outside the United States and requires identity verification for direct purchase from the issuer.

How Ondo US Dollar Yield works

The yield on the collateral assets is built into the token price. That is why USDY does not sit at 1 dollar: its reference value increases gradually. There is also a version that keeps the price at 1 dollar and adjusts the number of tokens.

The yield rate is variable and follows short-term US interest rates. After a direct purchase, there is a waiting period before the token can be transferred.

What USDY is used for

  • Dollar reserve with government bond yield.
  • Collateral in decentralized finance applications.
  • Treasury management for companies and crypto projects.

Risks and points of attention

  • It is not a stablecoin: the price changes with accrued yield and can trade at a discount in the secondary market.
  • Access restrictions: direct purchase depends on verification and country eligibility.
  • Risk of the issuer, the banks and the custodians of the securities.
  • Yield falls when US interest rates fall.
