11 live pools above the $100K TVL floor · ranked by TVL
RLUSD's largest live pool is aave-v3 on Ethereum at 4.99% ($67.15M TVL). 11 RLUSD pools across 1 chain clear this page's $100K TVL floor, $204.02M in total.
Your idle RLUSD could earn ~1.42% — park $16.9K and it could run a $20/mo Claude Pro subscription, forever.

How this rate has behaved
RLUSD shows up in 8 pools here, with rates from 0.03% to 5.59% APY across 1 chains — the rate depends on which protocol and chain you pick, not just the token.
8 of these 8 pools have a trustworthy 30-day average on file, with a median of 3.82% — a useful check against today's number for whether the rate is steady or just having a good day.
4 of 8 pools blend in incentive or reward APY on top of the base rate. Incentive yield decays over time as reward programs run down — the base rate is the more durable number.
1 of 8 pools carries impermanent-loss risk, meaning a two-sided position can lose value against just holding, even while it earns yield.

| termmax | 0.03% | 0.03% | Base rate |
| convex-finance | 0.05% | 0.38% | 0.02% incentives |

The 30-day average comes straight from DefiLlama and only appears when it passes the same sanity rail as every other number on this page — a dash means it didn't clear that bar, not that it's being hidden. Every pool here already clears a $100K minimum TVL. Rates move daily, so treat this as a snapshot, not a promise.
