Boosted USD Yield Program

The Boosted USD Yield Program allows users who reach certain volume or staked BP thresholds to earn additional yield on their lent USD, on top of the standard lend and stablecoin rate. The bonus yield ranges from +0.50% to +3.00% APY depending on tier, and applies up to a per-tier Lend Boost Limit.

In order to unlock the extra USD yield, you need to meet either the BP staking, futures volume, or spot volume thresholds laid out below.

Bonus yield by tier

Boosted Yield Tier	Staked BP	P30D Spot Volume	P30D Futures Volume	Extra Yield (APY)	Lend Boost Limit
VIP1	50,000	$15,000,000	$50,000,000	+0.50%	$50,000
VIP2	100,000	$25,000,000	$100,000,000	+1.00%	$100,000
VIP3	200,000	$50,000,000	$150,000,000	+1.50%	$250,000
VIP4	350,000	$75,000,000	$200,000,000	+2.00%	$500,000
VIP5	500,000	$100,000,000	$300,000,000	+3.00%	$1,000,000

How it works

The extra yield is a separate fixed component, added on top of the floating lending and stablecoin rates. If the current lending rate is 1%, the current stablecoin rate is 2%, and you are VIP5 (3% extra yield), your net USD APY is 6%. You can view the current USD lending and stablecoin rates in the lending page.

The bonus yield applies only to lent USD up to the Lend Boost Limit. Lent balances above the limit earn the lending rate and stablecoin rate only. Other assets such as BTC, USDT, and SOL do not qualify for the extra VIP yield.

The VIP boosted rate is paid out monthly, along with the extra USD stablecoin yield.

Example

Assume the following:

• Current USD lend rate: 1.00% APY

• Current stablecoin rate: 2.00% APY

• Tier: VIP 3 (+1.50% extra yield, $250,000 Lend Boost Limit)

• Lent USD collateral: $200,000

Since $200,000 is below the $250,000 Lend Boost Limit, the full balance earns the boosted rate.

Your net USD rate = 1% + 2% + 1.5% = 4.5%

If the balance were $300,000, only the first $250,000 would earn 4.50% APY - the remaining $50,000 would earn 3.00% APY from the current lend (1%) and stablecoin (2%) rates, with no VIP boost.
