SUI
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: FIGR) today announced a strategic partnership between Sui and Figure Certificate Company (FCC), or "Figure", a subsidiary of Figure Technology Solutions, Inc. FCC will deploy YLDS, its SEC-registered yield-bearing security token, natively on the Sui blockchain. The partnership is initially designed to offer yield on DeepBook, Sui's leading limit order book, with further collaboration planned around both YLDS and SUI. YLDS is a SEC-registered debt security, which is backed by short-term treasury securities and repurchase agreements involving treasury securities, yielding SOFR minus 35 basis points with daily accrual and monthly payments. The native deployment on Sui will power DeepBook's margin trading. Stablecoins will be automatically swapped into YLDS, a yield-bearing token that enables both individuals and institutions to access yield-generating digital dollars with instant peer-to-peer transfers and 24/7 liquidity. The native deployment on Sui will initially allow DeepBook users access to YLDS. YLDS will convert stablecoin holdings into yield-bearing assets. Holding YLDS has the secondary benefit of enabling both individuals and institutions to access robust fiat rails and yield-generating digital dollars with instant peer-to-peer transfers and 24/7 liquidity. "Issuing YLDS on Sui represents the beginning of a broader initiative to deploy SEC-compliant, yield-bearing security tokens across multiple blockchain networks," said Mike Cagney, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Figure. "We're proud to take this first step with Sui and remove traditional intermediaries in order to level the playing field and democratize access to institutional-grade financial products." “Bringing YLDS to Sui marks a significant upgrade for regulated DeFi, where institutions can access compliant and dynamic assets with the speed and security that only Sui can provide,” said Evan Cheng, Co-Founder and CEO of Mysten Labs, the original contributor to Sui. “By combining regulated, yield-bearing security tokens with seamless composability, YLDS further cements Sui as the premier platform for real-world asset adoption and institutional-grade financial infrastructure.” Supporting DeepBook's margin trading infrastructure The partnership initially centers on Sui’s leading liquidity layer, DeepBook, a primitive in the Sui Stack and the ecosystem’s largest venue for SUI trading. DeepBook's upcoming margin trading system will utilize an isolated stablecoin lending pool that generates yield from trading activity, borrowing fees, and liquidation events. YLDS will serve as a foundational yield layer, converting stablecoins into yield-bearing assets by minting YLDS natively on Sui, to maximize capital efficiency. Direct fiat access and expanded integrations The minting of YLDS directly on Sui, will ultimately provide a direct fiat on- and off-ramp for Sui users, enabling access to USD without relying on traditional crypto exchanges. This announcement marks the first step in a broader strategic partnership between Figure Technologies and Sui. Figure and Sui are also exploring additional collaborative opportunities, including the potential of integrating the SUI token as a collateral asset in Figure's lending platform.
