Sky Announces First Native Deployment of USDS, sUSDS on Avalanche paper

news_article · PageRank 0.0060

Overview

Sky, the DeFi protocol formerly known as MakerDAO, deployed its USDS stablecoin and the yield-bearing sUSDS natively on Avalanche, its first native deployment of those assets on that chain. The rollout uses Skylink, Sky's cross-chain protocol built on LayerZero infrastructure, which mints and burns tokens rather than relying on third-party bridge liquidity. The Avalanche route went live on 13 April 2026 with a daily transfer cap of 5 million in either direction set by Sky governance, scheduled to rise to full capacity on 27 April, with native USDS-to-sUSDS conversion on Avalanche expected later in Q2 2026. Grove Finance was the first entity to bridge the assets from Ethereum mainnet to Avalanche.
