USDG Rewards are Live on X Layer With up to 4.1% APY
Our core focus with X Layer is giving you greater freedom and variety in DeFi protocols, payments, and real-world applications, while building a leading global public network.
On September 26, Global Dollar (USDG), the trusted stablecoin from Paxos, went live on X Layer, OKX’s high-performance Layer 2 network - which enabled global customers on OKX to deposit and withdraw USDG.
Today we're pleased to announce the next step: up to 4.1% APY rewards on USDG holdings on X Layer, where USDG rewards will be accrued daily and claimable every week. The rewards program will not be available to customers in USA, UK, EEA, Brazil, Australia, UAE, Turkey and Singapore.
Earning yield has too often meant sacrificing safety or liquidity. With 4.1% APY on X Layer, we’re bridging that gap, building an open, inclusive on-chain ecosystem with X Layer and USDG that gives users real choice across DeFi, payments, and beyond.
Getting USDG across the X Layer ecosystem is simple. Here’s how:
OKX Exchange: Trade for USDG directly and move it to X Layer seamlessly
Cross-Chain Bridges: If you already hold USDG, you can bridge it over from other networks instantly
DEXs: Swap for USDG right inside X Layer’s growing DeFi world
Lending Protocols: Supply your USDG to earn yield or use it as collateral
And here's how you can participate in the rewards program:
Hold USDG on X Layer via OKX Wallet
Connect your Wallet to Exchange to activate the rewards program
Claim your rewards on Wallet under the USDG token page
Why it Counts
