What matters most before choosing in this category

Weighted on what actually pays the yield (30), redemption & claim quality (26), access reality (24), and conditions on the headline rate (20). The heaviest is what actually pays the yield: T-bill claim, protocol revenue, trading spread, or marketing spend — and whether it can be switched off.

Expert review and scoring weights

Spiko (USTBL / EUTBL)Data checked Sep 2026
AMF-approved tokenised T-bill money-market funds — open from €1

Spiko is the regulated European answer in this category: AMF-approved money-market fund units issued as tokens, with CACEIS Bank (Crédit Agricole) as depositary so Spiko never holds client money, open to retail and businesses from €1 in every country outside a named exclusion list (which includes the United States and Bulgaria) — the retail buyer Ondo USDY and BlackRock BUIDL exclude. Yield is the underlying T-bill rate minus a 0.25% annual management fee, accrued daily with no other fees. Two honest limits: the EUR fund pays euro T-bill rates (a 2.02% 30-day yield against 3.44% for the USD fund, read 14 September 2026); and fund units are not bank deposits, so no deposit-guarantee scheme applies.

Frequently asked

Questions people ask before choosing stablecoin yield

What actually pays a stablecoin yield, and can it stop?
Something has to, and the honest answer differs enormously between products advertising near-identical rates. It may be interest on short-dated government debt, the spread on lending your deposit out, trading strategy returns, or token emissions the issuer is funding from its own treasury. The first pays as long as rates hold; the last stops whenever the issuer decides. It can also stop because the redemption right behind it was never contractual, or because the rate carried conditions — a promotional window, a balance cap, a tier. This page scores the source, the claim, the access and the conditions separately for exactly that reason.
Why do advertised stablecoin yields differ so much?
Because the number is the output of four different things and the page scores all of them. What actually pays the yield varies from T-bill interest to lending spreads to token emissions that can stop; the redemption right behind it varies from a contractual claim to none; access varies from open to accredited-only; and the headline rate itself usually carries conditions - a promotional window, a balance cap, or a tier you have to qualify for. A high advertised rate with an unnamed source and a capped balance is not the same product as a lower one paid from disclosed collateral, and this ranking is built to keep those apart
What matters most when choosing a stablecoin-yield?
What pays the yield and whether there is a real path back to a dollar at par. The advertised rate is the least informative number on the page, because token holdings, lockups, tiers and payout currency routinely separate it from the rate received.
