Qualified users, vetted and permissioned by RWA issuers, can supply their tokenized assets (such as USTB\/USCC by Superstate and JTRSY\/JAAA by Centrifuge) into designated RWA pools. Once deposited, these assets serve as collateral for borrowing stablecoins like USDC, RLUSD, or GHO from the corresponding liquidity pools.
