Most people know $ONDO for tokenised Treasuries.
Almost nobody is talking about what sits on top of them.
It is called Flux Finance.
And it is the reason ONDO is not just an RWA platform.
It is a full DeFi money market backed by real-world assets.
Here is how it works.
What Flux Finance actually is
Flux is a decentralised lending protocol built by the Ondo Finance team and now governed by the Ondo DAO.
Think Compound V2, but redesigned specifically to handle tokenised real-world assets as collateral.
$44M in TVL. $34M in active loans. All on Ethereum.
The core mechanic
You supply stablecoins like USDC or DAI into Flux pools.
You earn 3 to 5% APY.
That yield is not coming from token emissions or liquidity mining.
It is coming from borrowers using OUSG, Ondo's tokenized U.S. Treasury product backed by BlackRock's BUIDL fund, as collateral.
Your stablecoin yield is backed by U.S. government debt.
That sentence should stop you.
Why this is different
In standard DeFi, collateral is volatile crypto.
In Flux, the collateral is tokenized Treasuries.
The thing backing your loan is the same thing backing the U.S. financial system.
Liquidation risk drops dramatically when your collateral does not move like a memecoin.
The governance layer
Flux is governed by ONDO token holders through the Ondo DAO.
Every parameter, every upgrade, every fee decision goes through on-chain voting.
That is the fee switch thesis in one sentence.
As Flux grows, ONDO governance controls the revenue tap.
The full picture
$ONDO tokenises Treasuries via OUSG and USDY.
Flux turns those Treasuries into DeFi collateral.
Ondo Chain becomes the settlement layer for all of it at an institutional scale.
Three layers. One protocol. One governance token.
Most people are still only looking at the first layer.
The people who read the docs always buy before the people who read the price.
PSA: $CRO is 'oversold' ⚠️
RSI Indicator (1D) is now <30, indicating a potential rally for Cronos might be coming in the short term.
This indicator worked flawlessly on the way up, I expect the same on the way down. 👇
Polygon's stablecoin journey is just beginning...
@0xPolygon processed an eye-watering $79.25B worth of stablecoin volume last month, according to data from @MSBIntel.
At the same time, the stablecoin supply on $POL is building towards $3.7 billion, the network already the 8th largest chain by stablecoin market cap.
Polymarket who?
Anyone notice Sonic cross 200,000,000 transactions?!
High performance L1 blockchain @SonicLabs has broken past the 200M transaction milestone, according to data from @chainspect_app.
The milestone is all the more impressive in light of the fact that Sonic's mainnet launched only 1.5 years ago, in December 2024.
Anyone bullish?
Ondo Finance is quietly KILLING IT in the RWA sector.
According to data from @MSBIntel, @OndoFinance has seen more growth in the past year than any other RWA platform.
The value of stocks tokenised through $ONDO has surged by a staggering $1 billion over the past 12 months.
Next on the list is @xStocksFi which has added nearly $450 million in assets - less than half what Ondo has achieved in the same timeframe.
It's official - @Coinbase is long-term bullish on $ENA.
After having announced a direct open market investment into $ENA, Coinbase has announced an official partnership with @ethena.
The CEX will now become Ethena's:
- Main Custodian
- Main Wallet Provider
- Perps Venue
Ethena's $USDe stablecoin will also go live on the @Base L2 network.

🚀 MoneyGram Launches MGUSD Stablecoin on Stellar, Bringing Digital Dollars to 60 Million Users Worldwide
💰 MoneyGram Enters the Stablecoin Race
MoneyGram, one of the world's largest money transfer companies, has officially launched MGUSD, its native U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin built on the Stellar blockchain. The move represents a major milestone for the Dallas-based financial giant, which serves more than 60 million customers globally.
With MGUSD, MoneyGram joins a growing list of major financial institutions and fintech companies embracing stablecoins as the future of cross-border payments, remittances, and digital finance.
The stablecoin is launching first in the United States 🇺🇸, with a global rollout expected in the coming weeks.
🌐 Built on Stellar's Blockchain Infrastructure
To bring MGUSD to market, MoneyGram partnered with several key industry players:
🔹 Bridge, the stablecoin infrastructure company acquired by Stripe
🔹 Fireblocks, providing secure digital asset custody services
🔹 Stellar, the blockchain network powering the stablecoin
MGUSD will be integrated directly into the MoneyGram mobile app through a self-custodial wallet, allowing users to maintain full control over their funds without relying on third-party custodians.
According to MoneyGram, Stellar was selected for its "best-in-class infrastructure" and ability to support financial services at institutional scale.
🏦 A Different Approach from PayPal and SoFi
The stablecoin market has expanded rapidly over the past year.
Major players already active in the sector include:
✅ PayPal with PYUSD
✅ World Liberty Financial with USD1
✅ SoFi, the first regulated U.S. national bank to issue a stablecoin directly to retail customers
However, MoneyGram believes its strategy sets it apart from competitors.
CEO Anthony Soohoo stated:
"The stablecoin market has largely focused on the asset itself. MoneyGram is taking a fundamentally different approach. Starting with our distribution platform, we're using stablecoin as a foundation to build future applications on our global network. MGUSD is the stablecoin we built for our customers."
Unlike many rivals focused primarily on the U.S. market, MoneyGram already operates a vast international network with nearly 500,000 retail locations and tens of millions of active customers sending money across borders every day.
🌍 Transforming Global Remittances
MoneyGram processed more than $200 billion in cross-border payments last year.
By integrating stablecoin technology into its existing infrastructure, the company aims to improve:
⚡ Transaction speed
💸 Lower transfer fees
🌎 Global accessibility
🕒 24/7 settlement capabilities
🏦 Financial inclusion for underserved populations
Stablecoins have become one of the fastest-growing tools in the remittance industry, offering near-instant settlement and significantly lower costs compared to traditional banking rails.
For millions of migrant workers and families worldwide, this could represent a major improvement in how money moves across borders.
⭐ Stellar Strengthens Its Institutional Position
The announcement is also a significant win for the Stellar ecosystem.
Denelle Dixon, CEO of the Stellar Development Foundation, commented:
"Stellar was built for real-world utility at institutional scale. Our five-year partnership with MoneyGram is proof that stablecoins have moved well beyond pilot programs. Together, we've expanded financial access to millions of families and communities who need it most."
MoneyGram joins a growing list of institutional organizations building on Stellar, including the recently announced partnership with DTCC, one of the world's largest financial market infrastructure providers.
📉 XLM Drops Despite the Positive News
Interestingly, despite the bullish announcement, Stellar's native token XLM experienced a sharp correction.
📊 XLM fell nearly 13% in 24 hours, trading around $0.2287 at the time of publication.
However, the broader trend remains positive:
📈 XLM gained more than 52% over the previous week, making it one of the best-performing assets among the top 100 cryptocurrencies.
Many analysts believe recent institutional adoption announcements, including the DTCC partnership and MoneyGram's MGUSD launch, have significantly strengthened Stellar's long-term outlook.
⚖️ Regulatory Momentum Favors Stablecoins
The launch comes at a pivotal moment for the U.S. digital asset industry.
Lawmakers continue advancing legislation such as the CLARITY Act, which could provide greater regulatory certainty for stablecoin issuers and unlock new opportunities for growth and adoption.
As regulation becomes clearer, major financial institutions are racing to establish their presence in the stablecoin ecosystem.
🔮 The Future of Digital Payments?
MGUSD is more than just another stablecoin.
By combining:
✅ A global customer base of 60 million users
✅ A network of 500,000+ locations
✅ Stellar's blockchain infrastructure
✅ Growing regulatory clarity
MoneyGram is positioning itself at the center of the next generation of digital payments.
As stablecoins continue moving from experimentation to mainstream adoption, MGUSD could become a powerful bridge between traditional finance and the emerging digital economy.

That's the infrastructure your app runs on when you build on @Algorand! 🫳🎤
🚨BREAKING: Stripe x $XLM is officially here
For YEARS we've speculated on Stellar & Stripes ties
• Stripe investing $3 Mil in Stellar in 2013
• Stripe CEO on Stellar advisory
• Adjacent partners (Paxos/Privy/Bridge)
Now Stripe, Stellar & MoneyGram are ALL collaborating on the launch of MGUSD
This is MoneyGram's native stablecoin.
As we know, Stellar has worked extensively with MoneyGram for the better half of the last decade.
Unlike their ties with Stripe, the collaboration here is globally recognized.
So much so that the UN has recognized Stellar and MoneyGram's collaborations.
And now Stripe is added to the mix.
The issuance of MGUSD is done via Bridge.
This is a stablecoin bridging platform that Stripe had acquired shortly after they integrated Stellar into their supported ecosystem.
Clearly that wasn't a coincidence.
The MGUSD stablecoins are then issued to none other than the Stellar Network.
––––––––––––––––––––––––
It's been a long time coming, but the writing was on the wall long ago
Momentum is clearly behind Stellar across payments and tokenization infrastructure.
Stripe. DTCC. Bermuda Govt. PwC. State Street.
These are ALL names that have interacted with the Stellar ecosystem over the past 30 days.
Let's see what the next 30 brings.
A new role for Ondo tokenized stocks.
Soon usable as productive collateral on @OndoPerps, an RWA perps platform powered by Ondo Finance technology.
The infrastructure Ondo spent years building now extends to equity perpetuals.
🔥BRUTAL🔥
👀Bermudas se asocia con Stellar para convertirse en la primera economía del MUNDO totalmente basada en la tecnología #blockchain.
👉 Primero asociación con la DTCC, ahora con un país entero...
The EU recently confirmed that by 2027, every battery, textile, and electronic device sold in Europe will need a verifiable Digital Product Passport.
The infrastructure to support this at scale already exists on Algorand.
Companies like Repsol, Thai Union, Estée Lauder, and Lavazza are using it today.
A thread on who's building it 🧵
1M transactions.
On Algorand: ~$190
As usage scales, transaction costs start to matter fast.
For AI agents, payments, gaming, and high-volume consumer apps, infrastructure efficiency can become a real differentiator.
Ondo sets a June 9 launch for perps on tokenized stocks
Ondo Finance (@OndoFinance) has set June 9 as the launch date for Ondo Perps (@OndoPerps), its platform for perpetual futures on tokenized US equities, ETFs, and commodities. Non-US traders will get round-the-clock access to names like Nvidia, Apple, and Tesla with up to 20x leverage, with US users barred.
Ondo Perps is built to accept tokenized securities as margin, not just stablecoins, so a position can be backed by tokenized stock or Ondo's Treasury products rather than idle cash. That is the capital-efficiency pitch other onchain equity-derivatives venues have lacked.
