$SOFI 🚨 SoFi LAUNCHES SOFIE: A TOKENIZED BANK DEPOSIT
SoFi Technologies announced SoFi Earn (SOFIE) on October 22, introducing a tokenized bank deposit designed to connect traditional banking with blockchain-based digital payments.
🔍 Key highlights:
🔹 Each SOFIE represents $1 held on deposit at SoFi Bank.
🔹 The announced annual percentage yield (APY) was 4.40%, variable and subject to change.
🔹 Eligible members can convert SOFIE 1:1 into SoFiUSD.
🔹 The deposit is eligible for FDIC insurance up to applicable limits.
🔹 SOFIE is a bank deposit token, not a stablecoin.
🌐 Why it matters: Tokenized deposits could help bridge traditional banking and digital asset infrastructure while retaining the legal structure of a bank deposit.
📌 Important: The product is rolling out to eligible SoFi members. FDIC protection applies to qualifying deposits under standard rules and limits; it does not cover SoFiUSD or other crypto assets.
