Meet @cyrille_briere, Contributor at @protocol_fx, on how institutions can access real DeFi yields. Current yields on T-Bills are 3.86%, while US inflation stands at 2.96%. This means institutions providing liquidity on T-Bills earn roughly 1% after adjusting for inflation 🧵👇
Meanwhile, yields on stablecoins can reach up to 12.49%. You might wonder why there’s such a massive difference between stablecoin yields and T-Bills.
@cyrille_briere explains that stablecoins have higher yields due to the trustless paradigm in crypto, whereas traditional finance still relies on a trust-based system.
Despite higher returns in crypto, institutions face several challenges: 1. Wallet custody 2. Smart contract, collateral, oracle, peg, and liquidity risks 3. Reporting and transparency
