Tokenization makes assets better, but only when you can directly own the underlying and not introduce counterparty risk. Our goal as an industry should be to provide the most pure direct ownership while giving users the option to hold through a 3p custodian, broker-dealer, etc.

USCC generates more stable returns through term products rather than taking what the market gives in perps. While perps are great, the vol isn't suitable for everyone's cash. 30-day yield in USCC is 13.2%, benefitting from positioning and recent moves.

$USCC excellent cash product for liquid funds. as BTC/ETH top out, managers taking cash off the table park it in USCC and lock-in high spreads. when spot pulls back, convexity in spreads tightening quickly gives a boost to cash yield as PMs look to redeploy cash.
