Figure Markets

Review

Pros

  • Offers two differentiated yield models: an SEC-registered interest-bearing digital security and collateralized lending pools.
  • Democratized Prime shows pool rates, utilization, collateral, and available liquidity, and does not charge lender fees.

Cons

  • Exiting a lending pool depends on available liquidity and can require waiting for another lender to enter.
  • YLDS is an unsecured investment security without FDIC insurance or a bank guarantee; SEC registration is not SEC approval.

MEXC
