Circle said on Thursday it will list its yield-bearing stablecoin, USYC, on Binance, allowing institutional clients of the world’s largest crypto exchange to post the token as collateral for trades. USYC, a tokenised money-market fund backed by short-dated U.S. Treasuries, distributes the underlying interest income to holders—unlike conventional stablecoins such as USDC and Tether that retain the yield. The coin will be issued natively on BNB Chain, giving traders near-instant convertibility between yield-bearing collateral and cash while keeping assets on-chain around the clock. Circle and Binance executives said the integration is aimed at reducing settlement times that can stretch to more than a day when traditional money-market securities are used, particularly over weekends when banking rails are closed. Binance plans to incorporate USYC into its existing triparty banking framework, which lets traditional banks act as custodians of client collateral. The exchange also announced support for cUSDO, another yield-bearing stablecoin, as it seeks to deepen ties between traditional finance and digital-asset markets.
