Stable Launches USDT Yield Vault With Morpho, Gauntlet and Theo

Key Highlights

  • Stable introduced StableEarn, a treasury management product for USDT holders on its Layer-1 network.
  • Yield strategies include exposure to Theo products such as thUSD, thBILL, and thGOLD.
  • Stable said the launch expands its USDT-focused payment ecosystem into treasury and yield-generating services.

Stable, a blockchain built for USDT, has launched StableEarn. This new tool lets users earn rewards on their USDT holdings directly on the Stable network. The first feature within StableEarn is a savings vault powered by Morpho, with risk management provided by Gauntlet and supported by Theo’s real-world asset solutions.

The vaults channel incoming USDT into various investment strategies powered by Theo’s products – including thUSD, thBILL, and thGOLD. These products are backed by tangible, real-world assets and operate within established, regulated frameworks, featuring partnerships with institutions like Standard Chartered’s Libeara and Wellington Management.

Stable is a blockchain platform that specializes in stablecoin payments, particularly using USDT. They recently introduced StableEarn to add investment options to their platform, allowing users to earn returns on their holdings.

Expanding USDT dependency

Brian Mehler, CEO of Stable, explained that while USDT is the most widely used stablecoin, earning competitive returns on it has historically been difficult. He believes StableEarn solves this problem by combining high-quality investment opportunities with the technology behind USDT, effectively creating a new platform for the leading stablecoin.

Theo’s CIO, Iggy Ioppe, celebrated the launch of StableEarn, describing it as a leading example of how to earn stable, on-chain dollar yields. He highlighted that it works directly with USDT, is built to institutional standards, and generates returns from traditional financial markets. Ioppe believes the future of cryptocurrency lies in earning real returns from real-world assets, directly within the existing crypto ecosystem.

Gauntlet’s USDC prime vault launch 

Gauntlet, a company that helps manage risk in the world of decentralized finance, introduced its USDC Prime Vault last year on Optimism’s main network, using technology from Morpho Lab.

The vault provides a more secure and streamlined way to lend and borrow cryptocurrency for everyone – from individual investors to banks and developers. It uses Gauntlet’s advanced risk analysis and Morpho’s lending platform to help users maximize their earnings while carefully managing potential risks.

Optimism explained that the launch was part of a larger plan to help businesses create and release new financial products directly on the blockchain. This effort also involves working with Utila.io to provide secure, enterprise-level wallet protection on the OP Mainnet.

More focus on yield-producing stablecoin solutions 

StableEarn’s launch highlights a growing trend in crypto: blending traditional financial tools with the technology of blockchain networks.

Starting in 2026, new stablecoins began offering returns by linking their value to things like digital versions of government bonds, short-term lending funds, and more complex real-world asset investments.

Using these types of solutions always carries some risk. Returns from vaults backed by real-world assets can be affected by the possibility of a third party defaulting, unclear regulations, and the usual ups and downs of traditional markets. How well and safely the vault performs will depend on the strategies used by Theo and the risk management practices of Morpho.

It’s hard to say how successful this project will be or how users will react. Its outcome relies on several things, like how open and honest the process is, how competitive its returns are compared to other financial platforms, and other variables.
