<p>In its latest post, the platform labeled this endeavor as a unique effort in terms of its nature. It added that the collaboration integrates assets including treasury bills which are tokenized as collateral. It incorporates the respective assets on a perpetual forum in the form of collateral. In addition to this, Ondo Finance shared a comprehensive X post to provide the details of this initiative.</p> 
<p>The company expressed its enthusiasm for the collaboration with Drift Finance. The platform noted in the post that this partnership enables the use of yield coins for collateral for the first time. As a part of the respective partnership, the $USDY token is currently available for collateral on Drift Protocol. Moreover, the people holding $USDY tokens on Solana can leverage yield-bearing coins for collateral.</p> 
<p>With the respective collateral, they can deal with margin trading as well as perpetual contracts. In this way, they can enhance capital efficiency. Apart from that, the consumers can borrow and deposit the $USDY tokens on Drift. Cindy Leow, Drift Protocol’s co-founder, also commented on this development.

Keeping that in view, the collaboration between <a href="https://ondo.finance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ondo Finance</a> and Drift Protocol takes the company closer to its respective vision.</p> 
<p>This adds extra utility to real-world tokenized assets and enhances the capital effectiveness for the traders.
