Frax Finance's frxUSD is now the underlying stablecoin asset for Gearbox Protocol's new RWA market, enabling one-click RWA leverage with institutional-grade liquidity. The first supported asset is Midas RWA's mF-ONE, and frxUSD also becomes a mint asset for mF-ONE — besides USDC, the only stablecoin with that status, putting frxUSD in the primary flow for institutional onchain assets.
Frax followed up by framing the partnership as what frxUSD was built toward: "the liquidity layer for institutional tokenization." KPK, the DeFi curator and treasury manager with $200M+ AUM, is curating a frxUSD vault for Gearbox's RWA leverage market, which Frax called another institutional milestone for frxUSD.
Frax
Frax is the world’s first fractional-algorithmic stablecoin. The Frax Protocol introduced the world to the concept of a cryptocurrency being partially backed by collateral and partially stabilized algorithmically.
