Velo Labs Selects OpenEden's Tokenized U.S. Treasury Bills to Strengthen Its Reserves for its USDV

The inclusion of high-quality, liquid assets like OpenEden's tokenized U.S. Treasury bills strengthens the collateral backing USDV. OpenEden is the first and only tokenized U.S. T-Bill product to receive an "A" rating from Moody's.

Adding tokenized RWAs to the stablecoin's reserves also unlocks new sources of yield for USDV holders. For instance, users could potentially stake USDV to earn yields from the returns generated by underlying collateral like OpenEden's TBILLs.

This development is part of Velo's "Real World Restaking" (RWR) initiative, which aims to allow users to "restake" their crypto assets, particularly the VELO token or other supported tokens, into vaults backed by tokenized RWAs like traditional financial assets or collateralized loans.

By incorporating institutional-grade assets into its ecosystem through USDV, Velo Labs offers investors and token holders access to stable, secure, and transparent sources of real-world yields. This contrasts with most decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms, which generate yields from highly volatile and speculative native tokens.

This strategic move aligns with Velo Labs' broader goal to become the leading platform for aggregating tokenized RWAs and the Payfi ecosystem by using USDV as a potential payment method (where acceptable), with TBILL as the reserve asset. This ensures that USDV is more accessible, transparent, and efficient for users, not only across Southeast Asia but globally.

"Partnering with OpenEden marks a major step forward for Velo Labs as we expand our role as a key player in the RWA space," said Korapat Arunanondchai, Velo Lab's Chief Operating Officer.

"By bringing tokenized U.S. Treasury bills into our network, we're giving users and token holders access to stable and secure financial products while also opening up new avenues for earning yield. Our focus is on blending traditional finance with blockchain in a way that genuinely benefits our users."
