According to Binance, RWUSD can now be used as a margin asset for USD-M futures under both Multi-Assets Mode and Portfolio Margin Mode, as stated in Binance’s Support announcement and official X post on Nov 11, 2025. Binance added that users can continue earning 4% APR on RWUSD daily even when it is posted as collateral, per the same Support announcement and X post. Binance stated this expands collateral options for USD-M futures accounts across Multi-Assets and Portfolio Margin environments, according to the Support announcement and X post.

According to @PolynomialFi, Coinbase Derivatives and Nodal Clear are collaborating to integrate the USDC stablecoin as collateral for regulated U.S. futures trades, with a target launch in 2026. This move, which is pending approval from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), would mark the first instance of a stablecoin being formally accepted as collateral for margined futures in the United States. The source states that Coinbase Custody Trust would hold the USDC, while Nodal Clear would manage the clearing process. This development is part of a broader bullish trend for stablecoins, highlighted by the recent surge in the stock prices of Circle (CRCL) and Coinbase, and the Federal Reserve's updated stance that crypto no longer carries "reputational risks" for banks, potentially opening doors for greater institutional adoption.
