Solana offers some top protocols for passive Stablecoin Income. We take a closer look at these options in a 2-part series. This is Part 2.
Here’s Part 2 about passive stablecoin income on Solana.
Hylo is a new DeFi protocol on Solana. It offers a product suite that consists of various assets. For example, with $hyUSD you can get sustainable $USD Yield. It also offers $xSOL, this offers non-liquidatable leverage with zero funding cost. So, that looks very promising, but it’s still all in Beta. You need to get a code on their X or Telegram account to access the Beta site.
Hylo offers their $hyUSD stablecoin. The current APY for staking is 11.6% in its Stability Pool. Hylo’s docs explain how this works. There’s also the potential of an airdrop for their token.
The risk. It’s a new platform, still in Beta. So, be careful with depositing any funds.

Huma Finance is another DeFi app on Solana. A great option for passive stablecoin income. It targets both retail and institutions. The current APY is 10% on $USDC in its ‘Classic Mode’ option. There’s no need to lock up your stablecoins. In other words, you can withdraw your funds at any time. Furthermore, you can earn ‘Feathers’. These are points that can count towards future airdrops. However, if you decide to lock up your deposited $USDC, your ‘Feathers’ get a multiplier. You can lock up your assets for 3 or 6 months. The respective multipliers are 2.98x and 4.9x.
The Risk. Huma bases its yields on real-world payment flows. So, that’s good. It’s better sustainable compared to most other DeFi protocols. This leaves you with smart contract and protocol risks.

We covered Loopscale already in Part 1. That was for its $USDC vault. However, Loopscale also offers looping. This is when you repeatedly borrow and deposit assets. Thus, boosting your potential returns. In other words, you create a ‘loop’ by keeping borrowing and lending. To clarify this even more, you deposit a collateral, and you borrow against it. You swap the borrowed asset for the original asset. Now you redeposit this asset and repeat the process.
The current yield on Loopscale can be as high as 50%. This is how it works.
The risk. There’s a liquidation risk when using leverage. Increasing leverage also increases your liquidation risk. However, PT-PST-2507 pegs to the $USDC. This does reduce your liquidation risk but doesn’t exclude it. We covered Loopscale’s recent exploit in Part 1.
