What Is Ondo Finance and Ondo US Dollar Yield (USDY)?

Ondo Finance is dedicated to enhancing the safety, efficiency, and accessibility of financial services through institutional-grade on-chain offerings. Ondo Finance has a technology arm focused on developing on-chain financial software and an asset management arm that creates and manages tokenized products.

USDY is the world's first tokenized note secured by US Treasuries, providing similar accessibility and utility as stablecoins while also offering a yield. Tokenized US Treasuries have fueled the growth of the real-world assets sector, where traditional financial assets are made available on blockchains so that users can leverage benefits from the technology such as 24/7 global transferability and compatibility with decentralized financial application. The market capitalization of real-world assets has grown from $100 million to over $704 million since the beginning of 2023, with Ondo leading the way.

Disclaimer: The USDY Tokens are not being offered or sold, and will not be offered or sold, in the United States or to U.S. persons. In addition, the USDY Tokens have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred in the United States or to U.S. persons unless the securities are registered under the Act, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act is available. Additional limitations on transfer also apply.
