Crypto firm Luno has expanded the offerings on its Singapore platform to include USDC Savings Wallet and two new cryptocurrencies — Chainlink and Uniswap. The USDC Savings Wallet offers a “competitive rate” of up to 7.6% yield with no lock-in period, the company said in a statement.
As it offers a familiar interest product to traditional banking, the savings wallet is a good avenue for new customers to grow their investments passively, said Luno global expansion manager and country manager for Singapore, Sherry Goh. The firm was granted in-principle approval from the Monetary Authority of Singapore under the Payment Services Act to provide Digital Payment Token services in April.
