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
