To get an additional 20%, use USD1 as margin in leverage or contracts, and your daily open position can’t fall below 300 USD1. The platform takes a snapshot every hour and settles based on that day’s lowest value—if it drops in between, that day’s boost doesn’t count. Also, there’s a detail: the borrowed funds converted into USD1 are accounted at 70% when calculating rewards.

After joining and participating all these months, even if the annualized return isn’t anything extraordinary, it’s fine to keep earning a bit of pocket money consistently. The key is that it’s hassle-free—you don’t need to stare at the K-line every day. Many people just treat it like a stablecoin deposit, and while they’re at it, they also scoop up some WLFI, killing two birds with one stone.

Speaking of USD1 itself, many people focus only on collecting yield and may not understand this stablecoin well. What makes it different from traditional stablecoins is that minting and redemption don’t charge fees, which reduces a lot of the friction when exchanging between fiat and crypto assets, making entry and exit to the market much smoother.
