Figment, OpenTrade and Crypto.com Offer 15% Stablecoin Yield Product for Institutions

Why It Matters

The solution bridges the gap between high‑yield crypto strategies and institutional compliance, offering a transparent, low‑counterparty‑risk alternative to traditional DeFi lending. It could accelerate institutional capital inflows into crypto assets by mitigating price‑risk and regulatory concerns.

Summary

Figment, OpenTrade and Crypto.com have launched a stablecoin yield product for institutional investors that promises roughly 15% annual returns. The strategy stakes Solana (SOL) and employs perpetual futures to neutralize SOL price volatility, allowing investors to earn staking-like yields on stablecoins such as USDC without direct crypto exposure. Crypto.com provides segregated custody to meet compliance requirements, while Figment’s staking infrastructure and OpenTrade’s market‑making expertise underpin the offering. The product is accessible via Figment’s platform and APIs, with on‑demand deposits and withdrawals.
