The post OpenTrade partners with Figment and Crypto.com to launch next-gen stablecoin yield appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. OpenTrade has introduced a new category of stablecoin yield products in partnership with Figment, the world’s largest independent staking provider, and with custodial support from Crypto.com, according to details shared with Finbold on November 14. The new product, OpenTrade Stablecoin Staking Yield Powered by Figment, delivers an average annual percentage rate (APR) of around 15% on stablecoins, based on historical data and market conditions.  It combines staking rewards from Solana (SOL) with OpenTrade’s institutional-grade yield infrastructure and a hedging strategy that offsets price volatility of the staked tokens. Higher yields with the peace of mind of an institutional service Figment is bringing its “safety over liveness” approach, that allows institutional investors to earn staking-based returns while avoiding exposure to decentralized lending markets. The platform’s infrastructure includes legal protections for institutions not typically available in DeFi lending. Under the partnership, Crypto.com provides custodial services for SOL tokens, which are held in segregated accounts. Investors are granted a security interest in the custodied assets, which remain fully separated from the exchange’s operational funds. “We’re bringing our battle-tested infrastructure and security mindset to stablecoins to offer customers exceptional yield opportunities with the peace of mind of an institutional service,” said Andy Cronk, Co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Figment. While users deposit and withdraw stablecoins, earnings are generated through Solana staking returns managed by Figment and hedging via perpetual SOL futures managed by OpenTrade. The combined model has historically produced yields more than double Solana’s native staking rewards of around 6.5% to 7.5%.

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

The post Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday opted to ease interest rates for the first time in months, leading the way for potentially lower mortgage rates, bond yields and a likely boost to cryptocurrency over the coming weeks. Average long-term mortgage rates dropped to their lowest levels in months ahead of the central bank’s policy shift. Copyright{2018} The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also dropped to 5.5% from 5.6% as they neared the year-ago rate of 5.27%. When the Federal Reserve lowered the funds rate to between 0% and 0.25% during the pandemic, 30-year mortgage rates hit record lows between 2.7% and 3% by the end of 2020, according to data published by Freddie Mac. Consumers who refinanced their mortgages in 2020 saved about $5.3 billion annually as rates dropped, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

How Do Treasury Bonds Respond To Lower Interest Rates? Long-term Treasury yields are more directly influenced by interest rates, as lower rates tend to result in lower yields. When the Fed pushed rates to near zero during the pandemic, 10-year Treasury yields fell to an all-time low of 0.5%. As…
