Generate yield on idle exchange balances
Exchanges hold significant stablecoin reserves that sit idle — user deposits awaiting trades, settlement float, treasury reserves, and order book liquidity buffers. RebelFi turns these idle balances into a revenue stream.

The Opportunity

​
Where Idle Capital Sits

  • User deposit accounts — Stablecoins deposited but not actively trading
  • Settlement float — Funds between trade execution and withdrawal
  • Treasury reserves — Operating capital and reserves
  • Order book buffers — Liquidity reserves for market making

​
Example Economics

Exchange stablecoin holdings: $50M
Deployable (conservative, 60%): $30M
Annual yield (5-8% APY): $1.5M - $2.4M
Previous yield on these balances: $0
Yield rates are variable and depend on market conditions. The figures above are illustrative.

​
How It Works

  1. Register your exchange wallets with RebelFi
  2. Call the supply API with the amount you want to deploy → receive unsigned transaction(s)
  3. Sign with your custody solution and submit
  4. RebelFi tracks allocations, accrues yield, and provides reporting
  5. Unwind anytime — funds typically available in 30-60 seconds (Solana) or 1-3 minutes (EVM)

​
Revenue Models

​
Treasury Yield

Deploy exchange reserves to earn yield directly.

​
User Deposit Yield

Offer yield to users as a competitive feature:
  • Earn 5-8% gross → pay users 3-5% → keep the spread
  • Differentiates your exchange from competitors

​
Example Economics

Exchange stablecoin holdings: $50M
Deployable (conservative, 60%): $30M
Annual yield (5-8% APY): $1.5M - $2.4M

User deposit yield model:
  Gross yield: $2M
  Paid to users (4% APY): $1.2M
  Exchange revenue (spread): $800k
