Grachev also revealed that the stablecoin is expected to offer an annual percentage yield (APY) of 12%, with higher yields for BTC/ETH at 15%, blue-chips at 17%, and altcoins with low liquidity at 19%.
The product will feature full-chain minting and redemption capabilities, he stated, adding that it has secured approximately $500 million in total locked value (TVL) from initial partners and supporters.
The latest announcement comes after Grachev said earlier this month that DWF Labs had completed the design for its synthetic collateralized stablecoin. The new stablecoin will support a variety of assets, including USDT, USDC, DAI, USDE, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and several blue chip and altcoins.
DWF aims to boost market liquidity and enhance safety through overcollateralization. Once launched, DWF Labs’ stablecoin will compete with Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, the two leading stablecoins in the digital asset market.
As of September 23, USDT’s market cap surpassed $119 billion, holding a dominant share of the stablecoin market, per CoinGecko data.
Apart from DWS Labs, Ripple is also ramping up efforts for its stablecoin launch, expected to come within months. Ripple’s stablecoin, called Ripple USD (RLUSD), is currently undergoing beta testing on the XRP Ledger and Ethereum blockchain, pending regulatory approvals.
The initiative aims to enhance liquidity and drive institutional use of the stablecoin while supporting cross-border payments.
