Does anyone know how stablecoin issuers like Circle, Tether and MakerDAO make money? It’s all a bit unclear to me and after recent events I have started to do more due diligence about crypto products. Some of them are really unclear or I’m just stupid.
And it made me think – where are the interest rates/margins gained from? From decentralised lending platforms like Aave or from exchanges with lending? Or do they lend USDT/USDC/BUSD to institutions?
Thanks to whoever helps me understand and have a good Sunday!
