Real-world assets become loan anchors, DeFi ushers in a new pillar

Horizon RWA Marketplace has consolidated the tokenized real-world asset USYC issued by Circle as collateral for lending. This move connects traditional finance with blockchain infrastructure, enhancing the liquidity and diversification of DeFi. The addition of USYC reflects the growing confidence of institutional investors in tokenized assets, which is expected to attract risk-averse investors and stabilize the DeFi market. Circle's support has increased the credibility of DeFi, and the regulatory framework remains a developing factor. The adoption of USYC may stimulate further innovations such as structured financial products and drive demand for USYC, thereby encouraging DeFi to integrate RWA more extensively.
