The launch brings EtherFi Liquid RWA live as a new vault for earning institutional grade rewards on stablecoins. The vault has a $25 million cap, with variable APY currently sitting at 7.25%.
Through Plume, the product gives depositors access to traditionally restricted yield markets, including high quality fixed income and institutional credit. The initial allocation includes BlackRock’s iShares AAA CLO ETF, Fidelity Total Bond ETF, and FalconX’s Credit Pool.
EtherFi Liquid RWA is also live as spend collateral on EtherFi Cash at 70% loan to value, allowing users to earn rewards on stables while unlocking spending power through the company’s card and cash product.
The launch extends EtherFi’s broader push into onchain banking. Earlier this year, the company said EtherFi Cash would migrate to Optimism’s OP Mainnet, moving active cards, accounts, and user assets to support faster and more scalable payments.
