Native @withAUSD is now live on Core. 🔶 A fully collateralized stablecoin managed by @vaneck_us and custodied by @StateStreet. Audited, fully compliant, and proven at scale. Here's what this means for Bitcoin DeFi. 🧵 👇

2/ AUSD is a fully collateralized stablecoin backed 1:1 by cash and cash-equivalent reserves. ✅ $10B+ in transfer volume ✅ 6M+ transfers processed Now it's live on Core, bringing battle-tested stability to the heart of Bitcoin DeFi.

3/ Bitcoin and stablecoins are crypto’s two strongest use cases: • Bitcoin = store of value • Stablecoins = medium of exchange Core is the first chain to support both natively, with no compromises. BTC yield + native dollar liquidity = institutional DeFi. 💼

4/ Wrapped stablecoins were a stopgap. They limit liquidity, break fiat access, and block institutional adoption. AUSD fixes that - enabling native liquidity that flows directly into real DeFi markets. 💧

5/ What AUSD unlocks on Core: 🔹 DEX Trading – Native pairs across major Core DEXs 🔹 Lending Markets – Borrow and supply AUSD 🔹 Liquidity Pools – Higher capital efficiency 🔹 Institutional Access – Compliant entry point 🔹 Capital Strategies – Borrow AUSD without selling BTC

6/ For BTC holders, this unlocks powerful new strategies: • Earn yield on Bitcoin • Borrow stablecoins without selling • Use AUSD natively, without bridging anywhere Bitcoin becomes productive. AUSD makes it usable. 🤝

7/ AUSD on Core brings the stability, composability, and trust institutions need. 💼 DeFi apps get deep liquidity. Institutions get trusted fiat rails. Users get seamless capital movement. Bitcoin as money, AUSD as flow.

8/ With native AUSD live, Core is the only chain that unifies both pillars of crypto: • Trustless Bitcoin yield • Native stablecoin infrastructure This is how Bitcoin DeFi scales. 🔶
