[Anchorage Digital Plans to Launch Reward Program for USDtb and USDe Token Holders in a Compliant Manner]
According to CoinDesk, federally chartered cryptocurrency bank Anchorage Digital plans to launch a reward program for USDtb and USDe token holders without directly offering returns that violate U.S. stablecoin laws. As described, institutions can hold these two tokens on the Anchorage platform without staking or locking assets, earning rewards on idle holdings. The rewards will be issued by Anchorage Digital Neo Ltd., an entity independent of Anchorage Digital Bank, to circumvent restrictions under the GENIUS Act.
A spokesperson stated that the underlying stablecoins and rewards are safeguarded by industry-leading custody and security architecture. The program is funded by Anchorage and aims to enhance flexibility and capital efficiency in institutional fund management. The GENIUS Act, passed earlier this year, prohibits stablecoin issuers from paying interest to prevent unregulated banking activities, effectively banning yield-bearing stablecoins. Anchorage's framework may provide a compliant model for U.S. issuers to offer similar rewards to token holders.
