CZ calls it: IPOs moving on-chain 📈
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao expects traditional IPOs to migrate on-chain. The infrastructure already exists.
What changes for investors:
• Access: retail can participate day 1 (vs institutions only)
• Timing: 24/7 trading, no opening bell
• Size: shares fractionate natively
• Cost: automation cuts underwriter/lawyer fees
Tokenized stocks: $2.9B on-chain (+14% MoM)
Grayscale: BNB Chain among leading chains
What stays same:
• SEC: tokenized shares still need registration/disclosure
• Ownership rights depend on fine print
• NYSE filed rule for tokenized stock trading
• Europe hosted first on-chain IPO
Liquidity remains the open question

Entry into Re Protocol is simple: deposit stablecoins, mint reUSD [1] or reUSDe [2].
But what's the exact flow of your money? What does it do while it's within the protocol? How does it earn? And how does it find its way back to the depositor? Let's explore.
Where your deposit goes.
The stablecoins you deposit are used to mint the token of your choice. USDC, DAI, USDe, or sUSDe can be used as deposit tender to mint reUSD; USDe, sUSDe are the accepted tender for reUSDe.
Whether you mint reUSD or reUSDe (or both), your tokens won't necessarily exist in the same place. From the start, they'll be split across two destinations: onchain and offchain.
Onchain capital is kept in liquid form inside the protocol. reUSD is designed as a liquid instrument, and at least 50% of the high-water mark of reUSD deposits is held onchain to serve as redemption liquidity. reUSDe is intended as a much longer-term instrument; a much smaller proportion of its backing is held onchain as liquidity for future redemption windows. The remainder of both reUSD and reUSDe is deployed offchain to licensed reinsurers, to serve as collateral [3] that backs new reinsurance contracts. Collateral is an amount of money, defined by local jurisdictions and insurers, that serves as assurance that the reinsurer will pay out claims.
Understanding backing.
Before following the money offchain, it helps to understand backing.
When you hold reUSD or reUSDe, you effectively hold a claim. Backing is the real stablecoin capital that stands behind that claim, deposited at the time of minting. reUSD and reUSDe are not moved around the system; instead, what moves is the stablecoin backing behind them. Both the liquidity held onchain and the capital sent offchain are in the form of that backing.
Fully backed. Re's tokens are fully backed, meaning there are real assets behind every unit of value. That way, the tokens hold their worth and redemptions can be fully honored.
Offchain mechanics.
Offchain reUSD and reUSDe follow the same shared path. It runs as a loop.
When enough reUSD and reUSDe has been deposited, a licensed reinsurance partner requests a transfer of the offchain portion. The Resilience Foundation transfers the backing, which creates a debt: the reinsurer now owes that money back to the protocol. It's essentially money lent from protocol to reinsurer, to be repaid over time.
Once the reinsurer receives the funds, it converts the stablecoins into dollars and deposits those dollars into locked trust accounts, each sized to the collateral that a given reinsurance contract needs. Not all deployed funds are necessarily deployed at the same time; after the necessary collateral is transferred, the remainder is held in reserve, ready to deploy as new reinsurance contracts are agreed to.
Value comes back from the offchain side in two ways, on two different clocks. The debt grows each month by an agreed-to amount, known as a coupon. At the end of the year, all accrued coupon payments become due (requests for earlier payment can be made if reUSD liquidity becomes low). That return flows back to the protocol, is moved back onchain, and refreshes redemption liquidity for reUSD. Separately, as contracts mature, collateral is gradually released, pulled out of trust accounts, and used to repay debt the reinsurer owes to the protocol. This is used to fund both ongoing reUSD redemptions and quarterly redemptions for reUSDe.
How your money earns.
reUSD earns from two places at once. Its onchain portion is held in sUSDe and earns that yield (what you'd earn by staking USDe on Ethena). Its offchain portion earns a return anchored to short-term US treasuries, sourced from reinsurance activity. Both come with a set spread on top, and your reUSD return combines the two.
reUSDe earns a return anchored to short-term US treasuries alone, also sourced to reinsurance activity. In exchange for modestly higher risk and substantially lower liquidity (with quarterly rather than ongoing redemptions), it earns a significantly higher spread than reUSD. Live target yields can be found on the Re App (https://app.re.xyz).
Withdrawing your money.
Because reUSD keeps much of its backing onchain and liquid, it's generally available for instant redemption. As long as at least 1% of the initial buffer is available, redemptions are available, with two caveats: no single redemption can exceed 10% of the available buffer per day, and total redemptions are limited to 20% of the available buffer per day. Should the buffer fall below 1%, redemptions enter a quarterly queue; in practice, however, the quantity of reUSD held onchain as redemption liquidity makes this outcome highly unlikely. reUSDe, on the other hand, is chiefly converted into cash, locked into trusts, and only released as reinsurance contracts mature; its liquidity is substantially lower, and redemptions are available on only a quarterly basis. The amount of liquidity released for any given redemption window depends upon release of collateral by regulators and determination by company actuaries. If total redemption requests exceed the available liquidity, redemptions are filled pro rata.
Regardless of which token you're redeeming, you receive payment in sUSDe at the token's current NAV. The stablecoins backing your tokens remained the whole way through; redemption is where that backing returns to you as spendable value.
