Aegis Protocol Update #4

The Aegis ecosystem continues to expand across new networks, platforms, and integrations. Over the past month, we’ve made substantial progress toward our mission of building the most transparent and composable BTC-backed stablecoin infrastructure in DeFi.

From new deployments to cross-chain growth and user incentive programs, each integration strengthens YUSD’s position as a core building block for decentralized finance.

1) Avalanche Deployment

YUSD is now live on Avalanche, powered by the LayerZero OFT standard. This marks a major step in scaling Aegis across high-performance ecosystems. Avalanche’s speed, scalability, and liquidity depth make it an ideal environment for stablecoin adoption and yield strategies.

At launch, a YUSD/USDC pool went live on LFJ, where users can provide liquidity and earn swap fees with a 5x Aegis Points multiplier, along with additional AVAX incentives.

This deployment lays the groundwork for future integrations within the Avalanche ecosystem, enabling YUSD to become a key source of BTC-backed stability across DeFi protocols.

2) Binance Wallet Integration

YUSD is now integrated with Binance Wallet, one of the largest gateways to web3 with millions of active users.

This integration significantly increases YUSD’s accessibility and visibility, allowing users to hold, transfer, and earn with YUSD directly within the wallet interface.

Binance Wallet supports multiple blockchains, and now YUSD joins this ecosystem as a transparent, fiat-free, yield-bearing stablecoin, designed for scale and real-world utility.

3) YUSD on Orderly Network

YUSD is now live as margin collateral on Orderly, enabling traders to use YUSD across perpetual DEXs built on Orderly’s omnichain infrastructure.

This is a major advancement for capital efficiency in trading:

  • Traditional stablecoins offer no yield when used as margin.

  • YUSD, by contrast, generates native delta-neutral yield while serving as trading collateral.

The integration ensures YUSD will be supported across all EVM-based perp DEXs built on Orderly, creating a unified layer of BTC-backed stability across decentralized exchanges.

4) Fixed Yield with Rho X

Aegis is now live on Rho X, powered by Rho.

Users can lock YUSD on Ethereum mainnet to earn a fixed yield through Rho’s institutional-grade infrastructure. Users can pick between different tenures which are offering stable returns and professional-grade execution through Rho’s dedicated orderbook and cross-margining system.

This partnership marks the first time a yield-bearing stablecoin protocol is directly integrated into hedged funding rate infrastructure, further strengthening the foundation for sustainable on-chain yield.Users can access the Fixed Yield product on the earn page.

5) Aegis Pulseboard

The Aegis Pulseboard, powered by Pulse, is live with 0.5% of total $AEG supply allocated as campaign rewards.

Participants can climb the leaderboard by:

  • Completing on-chain tasks with YUSD

  • Earning Aegis Points

  • Creating high-quality community content

The Pulseboard combines both on-chain activity and community influence, allowing users to earn AEG tokens based on measurable contributions.

6) Velvet Capital Vault

Aegis has launched on Velvet Capital through the Hardcore Labs x Velvet Stable Yield Vault.

This actively managed vault targets 15-20% APR and aggregates yield across leading protocols including Morpho, Euler, Pendle, Curve, Convex, and others.

Users who deposit YUSD earn 3x Aegis Points and 2x Velvet Gems, while the vault automatically rebalances across strategies to optimize performance.

It represents one of the most sophisticated integrations yet, bringing YUSD yield to on-chain asset management with full transparency and automation.

Conclusion

The past month has been a defining period for Aegis, expanding the reach of YUSD across networks, exchanges, and DeFi platforms. Each new integration reinforces our commitment to transparency, scalability, and sustainable yield.

We will continue to publish regular protocol updates to keep the community informed on progress and upcoming developments.
