YZi Labs, the rebranded Binance Labs, the investment arm of cryptocurrency exchange Binance, has announced a strategic investment in USD.AI, a stablecoin protocol that provides funding for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. While the investment amount was not disclosed, it was stated that this move will support USD.AI's goal of developing a synthetic stablecoin solution that provides returns that can scale in parallel with global computing demand. USD.AI offers a physical asset-based financing model powered by AI hardware and network nodes. According to the official statement, the protocol provides faster liquidity compared to traditional lending funds, collateralizing each loan 1:1 with AI hardware and reducing the loan closing time from 60-90 days to just 7 days.
