EUR yield onchain is coming
🟥 Big news: @SocieteGenerale enters DeFi
In the coming days, it will be possible to deposit euro stablecoin (EURCV) in a @MorphoLabs vault to generate yield
This is the first time that the crypto subsidiary of the French bank (SG-FORGE) makes it possible to use its stablecoin in a DeFi infrastructure (built on Ethereum)
Let me quickly explain how it works
This "vault" is a storage available on the Morpho protocol, managed by the asset manager @MEVCapital
👉 Objective: optimize yields in euro
The deposited EURCV is lent to generate interest. The idea is to provide a yield alternative for those holding euro stablecoins.
The level of yield is not yet known (but we will know very soon).
👉 Counterparties (accepted collateral)
On the other side, borrowers who want to obtain these EURCV must provide guarantees, meaning assets approved by the stakeholders.
In this case:
-BTC (bitcoin)
- wstETH (staked ether)
- EUTBL: European Treasury bonds tokenized by the startup @Spiko_finance
To summarize: this vault serves to lend EURCV to borrowers who leave Bitcoin, staked Ether, or tokenized real assets as collateral. The investor who provides EURCV earns a yield (in euro), while the borrower accesses euro liquidity without selling their assets
This system is a milestone as it's the first time a Tier 1 bank has gone this far in the direct use of DeFi
Admittedly, SG's deposit is "only" 5 million euros, but it heralds an important paradigm shift
We'll tell you more about it soon on @TheBigWhale_
