Ondo Finance tokenises U.S. Treasuries (OUSG) and short‑term corporate notes (USDY), letting DeFi users earn off‑chain yield without KYC for small tickets. Redemptions above $100k trigger regulated KYC/AML, and tokens are soul‑bounded during the settlement window to comply with securities exemptions. OUSG is used as backing collateral for Flux’s RWA stablecoin and is integrated in Curve’s stableswap set.
Paradex is a high-performance derivatives exchange offering zero-fee perpetuals, deep liquidity and zk-encrypted account privacy on a custom Starknet-based L2. Traders access 250+ markets across futures, dated and perpetual options, and spot via unified margin, with listings that often precede major CEXs. The platform integrates retail price improvement, institutional-grade risk controls and tokenized high-yield vaults, all powered by the DIME token and Paradigm-backed infrastructure.
