Circle Yield Early Access Update: Strong Demand and Rapid Growth

As of November 17, 2022, Circle Yield is not accepting new loans. We are evaluating future updates to the program.

We’re excited to share that since onboarding our first customers into Circle Yield in July, we’ve seen total deposits increase by nearly 200%.

Circle Yield customers including leading family offices, venture capital firms, crypto partners and corporate treasurers across multiple industries, are accessing superior yields on idle capital reserves with terms ranging from 1-12 months across a full yield curve.  

Market trends are driving robust and growing demand for dollar digital currency lending services, with the total supply of USDC increasing more than 1,100% in the past year as investors hunt for returns in DeFi and other crypto-related markets.

Meanwhile, blockchain data shows that stablecoin loans have increased at an annualized rate of more than 190% in 2021, to a total of nearly $20 billion outstanding today. 

Circle Yield is fully secured with Bitcoin collateral, offering businesses one of the easiest and most secure routes into fixed-income crypto investing.

Customers also benefit from a dedicated team of professionals who help provide smooth onboarding and continuous support throughout the life of the loan.
