First Digital and Quantus.fi Announce Strategic Integration to Expand Institutional Stablecoin Yield Solutions with FDUSD

In a continued effort to strengthen the global stablecoin ecosystem with compliant‑minded and transparent infrastructure, FDUSD, the fiat-backed stablecoin issued by First Digital Labs (FD121 (BVI) Limited), has integrated with Quantus.fi, a unified yield layer designed to deliver sustainable, market‑neutral returns for institutional users. Through this integration, FDUSD is now supported as total value locked (TVL) on the Quantus.fi platform, allowing holders to deploy capital into Quantus.fi’s structured yield framework built on execution‑driven, principal‑preserving strategies.

The integration enhances FDUSD’s expanding footprint across digital asset markets. FDUSD is fully backed by cash and cash equivalents held in segregated, bankruptcy‑remote trust accounts, with a transparency‑first approach and monthly independent attestations. As one of the most actively traded USD stablecoins globally, particularly across the Asia‑Pacific region, FDUSD continues to gain adoption among institutions seeking reliable, fully backed stablecoin infrastructure.

With FDUSD now supported on Quantus.fi, institutional users can access market‑neutral, execution‑enhanced yield mechanisms that avoid rehypothecation, unsecured lending, or excessive leverage. Quantus.fi’s architecture separates principal from yield generation, offering a transparent framework that aligns with the operational, risk‑managed standards expected by professional market participants.

“This integration reinforces FDUSD’s role in supporting responsible and scalable stablecoin innovation,” said Vincent Chok, Founder and Group CEO at First Digital. “Quantus.fi’s approach to transparent execution‑native yield complements our commitment to providing institutions with secure access to digital asset infrastructure.”

Quantus.fi added, “Integrating FDUSD strengthens our mission to deliver institutional‑grade yield solutions backed by high‑quality, transparent stablecoin assets. FDUSD’s fully backed model and trust‑based structure align perfectly with the principles behind Quantus.fi’s yield layer.”

Both organizations will explore additional opportunities for ecosystem education, joint product development, and expanding FDUSD‑based financial products across global markets. This collaboration supports the continued growth of secure, compliant‑oriented stablecoin use cases, bridging traditional financial expectations with the capabilities of blockchain‑powered infrastructure.
