M^0’s New Partnership with Fireblocks
M^0, a protocol for minting stablecoins backed by U.S. Treasury bills, has announced its collaboration with Fireblocks to provide advanced cryptocurrency custody services. This integration ensures that institutions using Fireblocks for crypto key management can seamlessly operate with M^0’s stablecoin-minting and validation system.
M^0 aims to address the limitations of current stablecoin systems, where yield is either retained by token issuers or distributed to token holders. With Fireblocks’ key-management technology, M^0’s protocol enables users to transfer, update collateral balances, retrieve, burn tokens, and interact with validators to verify reserves more efficiently.
Revolutionizing Stablecoin Yield Management
M^0 Labs, the developer behind the protocol, highlights a unique feature of its business model—flexible revenue sharing. Unlike traditional models where issuers like Tether (NASDAQ) or Circle (USDC) either keep all the yield or pass it entirely to token holders, M^0 offers a more versatile approach. Users can choose to retain the full yield or distribute it based on custom criteria, thus promoting a more dynamic ecosystem.
The protocol, governed by the decentralized M^0 Foundation, allows for complex yield management and incentivization directly on-chain. M^0 has already achieved a collateralized float of approximately $30 million, with reserves validated on-chain every 30 hours. Note that the service is not available to users in the U.S.
