🔥 New liquidity pool

A new liquidity pool pairing frxUSD and Origin Protocol's OUSD has launched on Curve Finance. The pool stands out by combining yield from two sources: - **frxUSD yield-forwarding incentives** - **OUSD native yield rewards** This dual-incentive structure aims to create a more sustainable stablecoin pool compared to traditional offerings in DeFi. The pool is part of Frax's PegKeeper system, which helps maintain stablecoin price stability. Users can begin depositing through [Curve Finance](https://www.curve.finance/dex/ethereum/pools/factory-stable-ng-584/deposit).

Frax has launched the **frxUSD+ Vault** through Concrete Earn, offering automated yield generation for its frxUSD stablecoin. **Key Features:** - Single-asset, one-click yield experience - Automated deployment across multiple DeFi strategies - Risk-aware rebalancing based on market conditions - Fully on-chain and transparent operations - Eliminates need for manual strategy management The vault architecture automatically optimizes returns while managing liquidity and risk parameters, simplifying the yield-earning process for frxUSD holders.

Frax is positioning **frxUSD** to become the third default stablecoin in the market, alongside established players USDC and USDT. **Key developments:** - The project acknowledges that while many stablecoins will launch, only a few will achieve standard status - Frax is forming partnerships with multiple projects to establish frxUSD's position - The strategy focuses on integration with on-chain neobanks as a key distribution channel **Infrastructure approach:** - FraxNet serves dual purposes as both a neobank and underlying infrastructure - The platform is designed to power other crypto neobanks, not just operate independently - This infrastructure-first strategy aims to embed frxUSD across the emerging neobank sector The announcement signals Frax's ambition to compete in the increasingly crowded stablecoin market by focusing on strategic partnerships and infrastructure positioning rather than direct consumer adoption alone.
