Decoding the Rise of Yield-Generating Stablecoin Pools in 2025

Following the collapse of Terra’s ecosystem and Anchor, an emergent cohort of yield-bearing stablecoins has risen to prominence, captivating participants seeking reliable returns in decentralized finance. A yield-bearing stablecoin represents a category of fiat-pegged digital tokens that marries the stability inherent to traditional fiat currencies with opportunities to accrue passive income. Certain standard stablecoins, when deposited into sizable liquidity pools, accumulate returns generated by the pools’ operations.

Capital allocated to these instruments is typically channeled into liquidity pools or similar structured frameworks, which function as the backbone for producing returns via strategic protocols—including staking digital assets like ETH, decentralized lending, or deploying capital across diverse financial vehicles. According to metrics collected by defillama.com, the top five pools secure $8.699 billion as of March 6, 2025.
