What to know:
- Liquid Yield Tokens can be used as collateral in DeFi, starting with Euler and Morpho. 🤯
- Last year, Midas received regulatory approval to issue its basis trade and U.S. Treasuries tokens in Liechtenstein, allowing passporting across Germany and Europe. 🗺️
Midas, a protocol for issuing yield-bearing tokens backed by U.S. Treasuries and other assets, has introduced Liquid Yield Tokens (LYT) linked to actively managed, decentralized finance (DeFi) funds, starting out with Edge Capital, RE7, and MEV Capital. You know, the kind of funds that make you feel like you’ve got a golden goose laying eggs! 🥚💰
Late last year, Midas received regulatory approval to issue its basis trade and U.S. Treasuries tokens in Liechtenstein. Well, someone had to do it, right? 😜 The bureaucracy surrounding these things… 😩
Tokenization builders in the crypto native and DeFi-focused arena saw the need for yield-bearing alternatives to established stablecoins like Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, which keep the interest generated from reserves. Oh, the indignity! 😤 They wanted to get in on the action too!
Additions to the Midas product suite reflect changing market conditions. For instance, the firm’s tokenized T-Bill product, based on a BlackRock money-market fund, was introduced when interest rates were around 5% and DeFi markets were much lower, at around 2%. Honestly, the whole thing sounds like a lot of fuss over a few measly percentage points. 🥱
The later addition of a cash and carry trade token delivered yields last year of over 20%, however market trends are reversing, said Midas CEO Dennis Dinkelmeyer. The new LYT product aims at yields as high as 20%, he said. A whopping 20%, mind you! 😱
“We’ve partnered up with the best in the industry such as Edge Capital, RE7 Capital and MEV Capital with more great names coming soon,” Dinkelmeyer said in an interview. “These fund managers are really experts when it comes to yield, whether with T-Bills, basis trades, or other yield sources like market making and arbitrage.” Well, isn’t that just a bit of a mouthful? 🤪
The Midas tokenization platform allows a wide audience exposure to these tokens with a one-click issue and redeem process, Dinkelmeyer said. “In addition, the tokens can be used as collateral in DeFi, starting with Euler and Morpho with more to follow.” Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! 🍋
