March 2026: USDf Holds Steady at $1.63B Supply as Tokenized Equities Cross $1B Milestone

In March 2026, we continued building out our universal collateral infrastructure, and USDf held strong with healthy overcollateralization even as markets shifted around us. A big theme this month: synthetic dollars aren't just stable, they're productive, and tokenized equities are proving their value as real DeFi collateral. We kept up our regular transparency updates and dug into what RWA composability actually looks like in practice, because capital efficiency only matters if people are using it.

USDf & sUSDf Updates

As of March 30, USDf supply sits at $1.63 billion, with $85.18 million in sUSDf. Total reserves are $1.76 billion, putting us at a 107.93% backing ratio, confirmed by HT Digital's latest attestation on March 27. sUSDf is delivering 5.58% APY.

• Where the reserves sit: BTC dominates at 59.8% ($1.05 billion), followed by MBTC (14.0%), ENZOBTC (11.9%), ETH (6.25%), and smaller allocations across stablecoins and other assets.
• How yield gets generated: Options-based strategies make up 61% of the approach, with positive funding farming and staking at 21%, and the rest in arbitrage and volatility plays.
• On custody: 93.6% sits in multisig wallets, with the remainder split between Fireblocks and Ceffu.

Key Announcements

sUSDf Delivers $21.36 Million in Total Yield

Just 11 months since our public launch, sUSDf has distributed $21.36 million in yield to stakers. Returns come from diversified reserve strategies, not token inflation, and the protocol keeps that process transparent.

xStocks: Unlocking Yield Opportunities for Tokenized Stocks

We broke down how xStocks works with Falcon: tokenized equities and ETFs like SPYx, NVDAx, and TSLAx can now serve as collateral for minting USDf. That means users keep their market exposure while unlocking liquidity and earning yield. The SPYx Staking Vault adds roughly 3% APR in USDf rewards on top of index exposure, with a lockup period.

The bigger picture: tokenized equities crossed $1 billion in onchain value in March, up 33x in 14 months, with transfer volumes to match. Our work with xStocks and ongoing conversations with partners like Centrifuge reflect where we think this is heading: RWAs that actually do something in DeFi, not just sit there.

The current RWA landscape map

• Stablecoins are still taking the lead with nearly $300B market cap, with USDT and USDC accounting for 86.7% combined market share
• Tokenized U.S. Treasuries is the second highest category with $12.3B total value
• Followed by tokenized commodities (incl. gold, oil, and diamonds) at a $7.1B market cap, tokenized credit at $6B in total value, non-U.S. government debt at $1.3B, and tokenized stocks at around $930M

What's Next?

March was about doing the work: delivering yield, staying transparent, and proving that tokenized assets can function as real collateral. Looking ahead, we're pushing deeper into RWA integrations, deploying more from our ecosystem fund, and expanding what productive onchain capital looks like. The goal for 2026 hasn't changed: build the capital-efficient infrastructure that synthetic dollars need.
