Binance has announced LDUSDT, a new ‘reward-bearing margin asset’ designed to give users more flexibility in how they use capital across its Earn and Futures platforms. LDUSDT is the second such asset, following BFUSD , and is aimed at increasing users’ capital efficiency. It allows holders to participate in perpetual futures trading on Binance Futures while maintaining their reward-earning status from the Earn program. LDUSDT will allow users subscribed to Simple Earn’s USDT Flexible Products to convert their assets into a futures trading margin, while continuing to receive real-time APR rewards. Users can convert subscribed USDT to LDUSDT through a swap function and begin using it as margin in Multi-Asset Mode. Once swapped, LDUSDT is automatically transferred to the user’s futures account. Users can trade with it on USDⓈ-M perpetual contracts and continue accruing APR rewards, essentially allowing the same funds to work in two ways. They can also convert LDUSDT back to USDT ( USDT ) at any time through the same interface. The asset is set to go live later in April 2025.
