1️⃣ Institutional-grade funds "on balance sheet"

Banks' on-chain settlement accounts
👉 Only USDC qualifies

2️⃣ RWA / On-chain securities / T+0 settlement

4️⃣ "Legal stablecoins" after stablecoin legislation
Regulations clearly distinguish:
Payment stablecoin
Crypto-collateral stablecoin
👉 USDT is categorized as "non-preferred category"
