$USDY, a yield-bearing stablecoin operated by Ondo Finance, is now available on the Sei Network, according to market analyst Sjuul. The integration means that the operator of the $USDY stablecoin, Ondo Finance, has solidified its ties with Sei Network by launching the stablecoin on the blockchain.

Ondo US Dolar Yield ($USDY) is a tokenized financial product that offers global, non-US investors stable, yield-generating exposure to US dollar-dominated assets such as short-term treasuries. $USDY is a yieldcoin that provides users with yields from US Treasury bonds and bank deposits. Backed by US Treasury bonds and bank deposits means that $USDY provides token holders with yields, whether through pledging it as collateral, staking, borrowing, lending, or just holding it in a wallet.

$USDY launched on @SeiNetwork at the PERFECT time… 🎯

Instead of just HODLing standard and boring stablecoins during this unstable market, we can now earn yield with our $USDY stablecoins while the market falls and finds its feet.

About $USDY on Sei

Ondo’s move to launch its $USDY stablecoin on the Sei Network is crucial as the integration aims to expand the accessibility of the stablecoin to wider crypto and DeFi users on-chain. The integration seeks to enable users on the Sei Network to access the $USDY stablecoin to seamlessly transfer DeFi assets, expand their financial activity, and increase liquidity. Being that $USDY is a synthetic stablecoin, its integration is set to provide Sei users with an unmatched financial experience not found on traditional stablecoins.

Traditionally, the crypto landscape lacked a stable store of value solution until the establishment of stablecoins in 2017. Over the previous seven years, stablecoins have expanded from their inception to the current market size of $305 billion, according to the DeFillama data. Their value stability has led to rising adoption as a means for on-chain payments.

Recognized for its high-speed, open-source Layer-1 blockchain designed for trading, DeFi, NFTs, and Web3 gaming, Sei Network has become a major blockchain for decentralized applications due to its real-time speed, high transaction throughput, and low-cost scalability. Its DeFi ecosystem has significantly grown, with stablecoins powering real financial activities within the various Web3 applications. The blockchain has experienced a massive surge in stablecoin payments, with P2P stablecoin balances held by users currently worth $119 million on the Sei Network, up by 152% from the record noted a year ago, according to metrics from DeFillama.

Expanding $USDY DeFi Market Reach

The continued usage of stablecoins on Sei, driven by the blockchain’s rapid transaction speed and low gas fees, has contributed to massive stablecoin volumes on the network. However, the new integration of the $USDY, an alternative to traditional stablecoins, is set to provide users with greater advantages to earn yields from their stablecoin holdings.

The new $USDY-Sei development marks a new achievement in Ondo Finance’s expansion across multiple chains, bridging the coverage of its $USDY stablecoin to major blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, Sei, and expanding its reach to others.
