DeFi RWA Release

Covered by 2 sources

Pact launched a concentrated liquidity feature for its ALGO/USDC pair on Algorand. The feature pools capital within a narrower price range so that a $100,000 trade moves with 0.72% slippage, down from 7.4% before the change.

The Pera Wallet's Fund feature, which lets users swap stablecoins from other networks directly into USDC or ALGO, remains available alongside the new liquidity mode.
