 USDY, collateralized by short-term U.S. Treasury bills and offering a 5.30% annual percentage yield, is positioned as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralized finance (DeFi).

 The integration of USDY with Drift significantly enhances capital efficiency for perpetual traders on Solana and signifies the beginning of a new era in DeFi <cite>Justin Schmidt, President &amp; COO of Ondo Finance.</cite>
</blockquote> 
The integration of USDY as collateral is expected to boost trading volumes and liquidity on Drift’s platform. Users will no longer have to choose between generating a yield on their stablecoins or using them as collateral for trading. Instead, they can earn yield and trade simultaneously, generating returns on their collateral while executing trades. 
Cindy Leow, co-founder of Drift, <a href="https://www.drift.trade/updates/drift-partners-with-ondo-finance-to-launch-rwa-margin-in-solana-defi" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.drift.trade/updates/drift-partners-with-ondo-finance-to-launch-rwa-margin-in-solana-defi" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">added</a> that they are excited for the partnership as Drift’s aim is to create a fully on-chain platform for trading any asset with any collaterals. Leow also claimed that Ondo’s solution opens utility for tokenized real-world assets to unlock more capital efficiency for traders. 
The collaboration of Ondo Finance and Drift Protocol can mark the development of these relationships and RWA’s popularity in DeFi to create the possibility of admitting more tokens relating to RWA, which will complement the variety and quality of pledged collateral among the traders.
