Looks like holding USDC on a certain compliant exchange just got a bit more exclusive. The platform's rolling out changes that'll lock earning rewards behind their premium membership tier. Regular users? They're getting cut out of the passive income game.

This shift basically means if you're not paying for their subscription service, your stablecoin just sits there doing nothing. Kind of a bold move when other platforms are fighting to attract liquidity with competitive yields. Makes you wonder if this is about boosting membership numbers or if there's more going on behind the scenes with their business model.
