ONyc Launches on Kamino, Unlocking Real-World Yield and Collateral Utility in Solana DeFi

Hamilton, Bermuda, Aug. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Onchain Yield Coin (ONyc), a yield-bearing, stablecoin-backed asset issued by OnRe, is now live on Kamino, Solanaʼs largest DeFi money market. The integration gives stablecoin holders access to yield strategies backed by real-world risk, offering uncorrelated returns, instant liquidity, and native composability across Solana DeFi.
                
Accessing Capital-Efficient Yield
                
Kamino secures over $700M in stablecoin TVL and underpins liquidity and capital strategies across the Solana ecosystem. With ONyc now live on Kamino, users can:

●  Earn 16% base yield uncorrelated to crypto volatility        
●  Leverage ONyc as collateral for borrowing, lending, or looping        
●  Access 24/7 liquidity to enter or exit positions at any time        
●  Track NAV in real time with onchain, verifiable pricing data
                 
Together, these capabilities make ONyc a powerful entry point for stablecoin holders seeking real-world yield with transparency and onchain flexibility.
                             
The integration of ONyc into Kamino is powered by Chainlinkʼs Onchain NAV solution, which sources ONycʼs net asset value from OnRe and delivers it in real time via Chainlink Data Streams. This provides tamper-resistant pricing and enables secure collateralization across Solana DeFi, supporting reinsurance-backed yield strategies with verifiable, onchain fund valuations.
                                
“ONyc delivers real-world yield to Solana with the transparency, liquidity, and composability DeFi was built for,ˮ said Dan Roberts, Co-Founder and CEO of OnRe. “Solana has become a hub for capital innovation, and Kamino continues to set the bar for how real-world assets should operate onchain.ˮ
        
Incentives Designed for Early Participation
                
Together with Kamino, Global Dollar Network, and Ethena, OnRe is launching incentives for early participation:
                    
Borrowing Incentives
                    
A $200K incentive pool is available to lower borrowing costs for early participants.Users who deposit ONyc as collateral to borrow USDG on Kamino earn borrowing rebates, reducing costs and creating more room for positive yield spreads.
                    
“This marks one of the first fully permissionless implementations of real-world yield distributed directly onchain through DeFi,ˮ said Nick Robnett at Paxos, on behalf of Global Dollar Network. “We are proud to support ONycʼs launch on Solana and Kamino, leveraging USDG to advance OnReʼs vision of bringing real-world assets with intrinsic value onchain and making them accessible to a global user base.ˮ
                        
Leverage and Looping
                        
Participants can redeploy borrowed USDG to acquire additional ONyc or other assets, increasing exposure and unlocking higher returns through looping strategies. Incentives to offset borrowing interest are available on up to $20M of total borrowing volume.
                        
Ethena Points Bonus
                        
Holding ONyc unlocks a 5x Ethena Points multiplier on qualifying sUSDe deposits, rewarding liquidity providers backing real-world, yield-bearing collateral.
                    
Expanding Real-World Yield Access on Solana
                    
By combining premium-backed returns from real-world assets with DeFi-native flexibility, ONyc delivers a return profile thatʼs scalable, uncorrelated, and unavailable in traditional finance.
                    
“One of the most exciting things for Kaminoʼs users is onboarding high quality collateral assets, and ONyc is a great example of that. Access to credit and leverage for ONyc holders, powered by Kamino, is a great example of bringing DeFi utility to tokenize real-world investments,ˮ said Mark Hull, a Kamino contributor.
                        
With current yields at 16% and available incentives, ONyc offers a high-performing alternative to traditional DeFi strategies for stablecoin holders. Mint ONyc directly on the OnRe app or swap instantly through Kamino Swap.
