Tharwa’s thUSD is an up-and-coming stablecoin, which recently expanded to a new record in its supply. In the past months, thUSD grew to 1.2M tokens, now seeking adoption across DeFi. The asset aims to offer an optimized <a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/yield-bearing-stablecoins-paid-250m/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">yield-bearing stablecoin</a> while using the Real Finance RWA infrastructure.&nbsp;
On-chain accessibility and liquidity are key for RWA projects. Tharwa also aims to offer a Sharia-compliant stablecoin product.&nbsp;
<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-tharwa-s-thusd-is-backed-by-real-world-assets-span">Tharwa’s thUSD is backed by real-world assets</h3>
Unlike other stablecoins, thUSD is backed by a basket of real-world assets. To fulfill the compliance with Islamic finance standards, the basket includes sukuk obligations, gold, real estate, and short-term sovereign debt.&nbsp;
The underlying portfolio is managed by AI and uses risk-optimized financial models.&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/real-finance-29m-to-accelerate-rwa-adoption/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Real Finance</a> will serve as the infrastructure for the tokenized instruments, with a focus on traceability, composability, and compliance. The goal is to offer a new ethical product to the DeFi community, while remaining compliant with traditional financial requirements.&nbsp;
The <a href="https://twitter.com/TharwaUAE/status/2013616190359327174" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">deployment</a> of thUSD on Real Finance will deepen the token’s liquidity sources and support new yield strategies. The stablecoin will also be used for settlement and collateral options for DeFi apps in the Real Finance ecosystem.&nbsp;
<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-tharwa-brings-defi-to-emerging-markets-span">Tharwa brings DeFi to emerging markets</h3>
Tharwa launched thUSD in the summer of 2025, at a time of expansion for multiple new projects. Tharwa aims to build a DeFi ecosystem based on ethical financial access with Sharia-aligned financial tools.&nbsp;
While most DeFi projects tap developed economies, Tharwa focuses on emerging markets. The stablecoin is seeking to expand to treasuries, DAOs, and other decentralized use cases.&nbsp;
Tharwa itself works as a multi-asset hedge fund, aiming to guarantee the stability of thUSD. The company is based in the UAE, tapping the region’s favorable crypto regulation.
The holders of thUSD can share in network fees, use the token for governance, and receive yield. The UAE domicile of the stablecoin protects the asset from attempts to <a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/jpmorgan-chase-wages-war-on-stablecoins/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">limit yield-bearing features</a> by US regulators. 
Tharwa is now working toward wider adoption for thUSD into additional projects and platforms to tap the wider DeFi liquidity. Currently, the stablecoin is only trading on Curve Finance against USDC as it gradually builds up its swap activity.
