Ondo Finance said its tokenized U.S. Treasury product USDY is now live on Tempo, a Layer-1 blockchain incubated by Stripe and Paradigm. The integration is aimed at a specific problem in payments: idle funds that sit in the flow of transactions without generating yield in traditional systems. By placing USDY on Tempo, the companies are positioning the asset as a way to let those balances earn U.S. Treasury yield while remaining usable in payment-related workflows. Tempo is described as a network built for global payments, with sub-second finality and fees denominated in stablecoins. Ondo said USDY is a permissionless transferable tokenized asset that can move on-chain without a whitelist requirement. The product is intended for use cases including corporate wallets, payroll and merchant settlement, where it can serve as a yield layer for payment applications.
