How to Buy Ondo OUSG: Tokenized Treasuries for Qualified Investors

OUSG (Ondo Short-Term US Government Treasuries) is a tokenized fund from Ondo Finance that gives qualified investors exposure to short-term US Treasuries. It is one of the earliest tokenized treasury products and holds part of its assets in other tokenized funds, including BlackRock’s BUIDL.

Who can buy it

OUSG is a private offering. Investors need to:

  • Qualify as an accredited investor or qualified purchaser under US securities rules, or meet the equivalent requirements elsewhere.
  • Complete KYC and onboarding with Ondo.
  • Use an allowlisted wallet; OUSG transfers are restricted to approved addresses.

How to buy

  1. Onboard with Ondo and get your wallet approved.
  2. Mint OUSG with USDC (or other supported stablecoins). Ondo supports instant minting during most hours.
  3. Hold or redeem. Redemptions back to stablecoins can also be near-instant, subject to limits.

How the yield works

OUSG’s price rises as the underlying Treasuries earn interest, so returns show up as a higher token price. A rebasing version, rOUSG, keeps a $1 price and grows balances instead.

Risks

OUSG relies on Ondo’s fund structure and on the funds it holds, so it carries their risks as well as its own. Transfer restrictions limit where you can use it, and instant redemption has limits. Read the offering documents before investing. Nothing here is investment advice.
