The Falcon Finance protocol has integrated tokenized Mexican sovereign bills into its multi-collateral framework for its stablecoin, USDf, through a partnership with real-world-asset platform Etherfuse.
Falcon Finance has integrated CETES—the tokenized representation of short-duration Mexican sovereign bills—as part of a major strategic move to expand its multi-collateral framework. The tokenization was executed by the real-world asset (RWA) platform Etherfuse. The integration, which is Falcon’s first inclusion of a non-USD sovereign-yield asset, is seen as significantly diversifying the collateral foundation for its native stablecoin, USDf, beyond the U.S. Treasury system.
According to a media release, the inclusion of CETES offers several key benefits, including exposure to sovereign yield in an emerging market while diversifying risk and expanding the geographic reach of Falcon’s collateral architecture. Users can now hold tokenized Mexican sovereign instruments and unlock dollar-denominated USDf liquidity without selling their underlying positions, effectively bridging real sovereign instruments into the global DeFi economy.

Given that Mexico is a massive remittance destination—the country reportedly receives nearly $65 billion annually—tokenized CETES offer a natural on-chain asset for users in remittance-heavy economies. Artem Tolkachev, Chief RWA Officer at Falcon Finance, emphasized the broader vision:
“Adding CETES strengthens our ability to support diversified, yield-bearing RWA portfolios onchain. Users can hold tokenized Treasuries, gold, Mexican sovereign bills, or even a tokenized Tesla share, and at the same time unlock USDf liquidity and access DeFi yield without selling their underlying positions. This is a practical step toward a unified collateral architecture built around real assets rather than a single asset class.”
CETES are tokenized using Etherfuse’s stablebonds architecture, a structure backed 1:1 by short-term Mexican government debt. The instrument is designed to be bankruptcy-remote and transparently structured. The tokens are issued natively on Solana, supporting high-frequency minting, instant settlement, and full on-chain liquidity. Daily NAV updates track the underlying sovereign exposure, making CETES a reliable and programmable building block for DeFi.
Dave Taylor of Etherfuse highlighted the instruments’ quality: “Our goal is to make high-quality sovereign instruments globally accessible in a programmable format. CETES are backed by real short-duration government paper, issued natively on Solana, and built for instant liquidity. Falcon’s integration demonstrates how tokenized sovereign instruments can power real utility across DeFi.”
For Falcon, the integration bolsters the protocol’s multi-collateral architecture by adding a high-quality, non-USD sovereign instrument that operates within a Basel-aligned analytical framework, improving the resilience of the USDf collateral base.
