Tangent has deployed its USG stablecoin on Balancer, pairing it with Aave's GHO in a new Stable Pool.
Key features:
- Pool maintains tight parity between USG and GHO
- 100% boosted structure allows both assets to earn yield
- Liquidity providers collect swap fees plus underlying interest
How it works: The pool design enables continuous yield generation from two sources - trading fees from swaps and interest rates from Aave's lending protocol. Both stablecoins in the pair benefit from this dual-yield mechanism.
This follows Balancer's existing stablecoin infrastructure, which includes a ~$14m pool featuring GHO, USDC, and USDT with similar yield-generating properties and additional BAL and GHO incentives.
USG has a new home on Balancer. Tangent paired their stablecoin with @aave's GHO in a single Stable Pool, tight at parity. 100% boosted so both legs earn yield on top of swap fees. Our ecosystem keeps growing 馃シ
