HEADLINE
**State of play: **Bullish is providing USD.AI with a $100M stablecoin-based debt facility to finance loans backed by GPU infrastructure, expanding the onchain financing platform’s GPU-backed lending business.
The loans will be secured by GPU hardware itself rather than borrowers’ broader corporate assets.
USD.AI previously issued a $98.1M loan backed by 2,304 Nvidia B300 GPUs and a fully funded $34M loan backed by 768 Nvidia B200 GPUs.
The deal builds on Bullish Capital’s $4M investment in USD.AI made in September 2025.
Bullish shares have gained about 45% over the past month, trading around $33, though still down over 60% from their IPO debut.
**What’s Next: **Bullish will list sUSDai across multiple trading pairs and back it with dedicated market-making to improve secondary liquidity for GPU-backed debt.
**Why it Matters: **The facility deepens the link between stablecoin liquidity and AI infrastructure financing, treating GPUs as a bankable collateral class outside traditional corporate lending.
**Our Take: **As GPU-backed loans grow into the hundreds of millions, the model’s real test will be how sUSDai holds up in secondary markets if AI infrastructure demand or GPU values soften.
