Worldlibertyfi's WLFI and Aster DEX have formed a deep partnership @worldlibertyfi

WLFI and Aster DEX have established a strategic partnership, with USD1 becoming the exclusive settlement currency for all TradFi perpetual contracts on the platform, no longer coexisting with USDT. The first batch includes gold, silver, WTI crude oil, and Brent crude oil.
The lending annualized yield of USD1 on Dolomite has surged to 36%, with utilization approaching 100%. Strategic whale addresses have deposited about 3 billion WLFI as collateral to lend out over 50 million USD1, demonstrating strong market demand for USD1.
Aster DEX has launched a super-low fee policy, with a taker fee rate of only 1bps (0.01%) for USD1 trading pairs, and a maker fee of -0.5bps (negative fee rebate), significantly lower than the industry average.
USD1 currently trades at an 8 basis point discount. Combined with WLFI's official deposit market offering a 36% annualized yield, this creates an arbitrage window. On-chain data shows the discount is mainly caused by net outflows from small and medium-sized orders.
Participation methods: Deposit USD1 on the Dolomite platform to earn a 36% annualized yield / Use USD1 to trade gold, silver, crude oil, and other TradFi perpetual contracts on Aster DEX, enjoying a 1bps Taker fee and -0.5bps Maker rebate.
