Tokenized Treasury assets like USYC are growing fast as institutions seek stable and yield generating blockchain tools.

The USYC stablecoin represents shares in the Hashnote International Short Duration Fund. This fund is backed by short-term U.S. Treasury bills. It operates as a tokenized money market fund with institutional-level yield potential.
Collateral Now Held in Custody Instead of Exchanges
The integration lets clients keep USYC in third-party custody. They may now use Binance Banking Triparty or Ceffu for storage. This method avoids delivering assets directly to exchanges. As a result, it enhances asset security and limits exposure.
Holding USYC in custody enables margin trading without compromising ownership. It also allows users to earn yield on their margin capital. Traders gain both passive income and full access to collateral.
Stablecoin Offers Fast Liquidity and Conversion
USYC includes a feature that allows near-instant conversion into USDC. This helps institutions shift funds quickly between yield-bearing products and stablecoins. It supports flexible capital strategies with minimal delay.
This dual-purpose model appeals to institutions seeking stability and liquidity. With one asset, they gain access to yield and immediate liquidity. The setup also reduces settlement risk and increases market responsiveness.
Demand for Tokenized Treasuries Continues to Grow
The USYC launch comes as tokenized Treasury assets see rising institutional demand. These products have nearly doubled in volume since January 2025.
