Coinbase USD Stablecoin Yield Fund (CUSHY)

What the client owns
Share of a Cayman feeder whose manager lends stablecoins and buys credit, targeting SOFR plus 4 to 7 percentage points. Not stated: The issuer’s documents do not say whether the chain or an off-chain register governs. Ketju records the date it checked.
Who may hold it
US qualified purchasers. First purchase $100,000. Superstate’s fund page lists eligible investors as “US UBO, Qualified Purchasers, Non-US UBOs qualified per their jurisdiction” and the structure as an open-ended 506(c) fund. The Form D filed 23 June 2026 claims Rule 506(c) and the Investment Company Act section 3(c)(7) exclusion, which admits only qualified purchasers, so we treat the fund as open to qualified purchasers only. The Form D states the same $100,000 minimum and says the manager may raise, lower, or waive it. It reports $25,000,000 sold to 2 investors since the first sale on 11 June 2026. Investors onboard with Superstate, Northern Trust, and Coinbase Asset Management.
Who can freeze or claw back
Solana: can freeze a holder, claw back, gate who may hold, mint. An account only a program can sign for can freeze a holder and claw back tokens.
Base: can pause transfers, claw back, gate who may hold, mint, change the code. A single key holds the owner key. A single key, through a contract, can change the code with no delay.
How a holder redeems
Redeem with the issuer in its window. Quarterly. Proceeds are paid through Northern Trust, as administrator, on the Redemption Dealing Day for requests received in the previous calendar quarter. One sentence of Superstate’s documentation says liquidity is offered at month end; its fund page and redemption section say quarterly, and we follow them. Settles in USD, USDC.

This file replaced an earlier version on 2026-09-24. Superseded to settle the Base freeze power the file had marked unverified: the whole transfer path is now read from verified source, and it has no freeze on Base. Earlier versions.

Subscribers see which of their clients hold this program and whether each household qualifies under these terms, and Ketju emails them when the file changes. $299 per firm per month, first 30 days free.

What the issuer filed with the SEC

A private offering files Form D with the SEC within 15 days of its first sale and amends it each year while it sells. The issuer signs it. It states the exemption relied on, the fund’s exclusion from the Investment Company Act (which decides who may buy), the smallest investment accepted, the amount sold, and how many investors hold.

Filed by Coinbase Tokenized Stablecoin Yield Feeder Fund Ltd (SEC CIK 2138534). Sold to date counts every sale since the first and does not show the fund’s size today. Ketju reads EDGAR daily and reviews this file again when a new filing appears.

The transfer agent’s SEC record

A transfer agent registers with the SEC on Form TA-1 and reports each year on Form TA-2: how many securityholder accounts it keeps and for how many issues it keeps the master securityholder file, the list that says who owns each share.

Who controls it

Ketju read these powers from the deployed contracts and their verified source code: the token and every contract it checks on a transfer. A power listed here is something the issuer can do; it does not mean the issuer has used it.

ChainFreeze a holderPauseClaw backGate holdersChange the codeKeys held by
SolanaYesNoYesYesNoAn account only a program can sign for can freeze a holder and claw back tokens.
BaseNoYesYesYesYesA single key holds the owner key. A single key, through a contract, can change the code with no delay.

Who holds the keys

Ketju read every current holder of each power from the chain on 2026-09-24. A single key is one private key, and whoever holds it acts alone. A multisig needs the stated number of signers. A timelock delays every action, so holders can see it before it takes effect.

Daily checks

Every day Ketju reads each control function in the table above and the contracts the token checks on a transfer. Ketju compares the token’s on-chain supply with yesterday’s, and its market quote with yesterday’s quote, since a fund of this kind accrues a few basis points a day. Ketju also reads every document quoted above and reviews the file again if a quoted passage disappears from its document. Ketju reads EDGAR for the issuer’s Form D filings and the transfer agent’s registration and reviews the file again when a new filing appears. Ketju counts a new, removed, or changed key as a change only when the chain’s own log shows the grant, revocation, or signer change since yesterday. If the log does not show it, Ketju updates the key list in this file and does nothing more. A change opens a review before any client action. Subscribers get an email that names each of their clients who hold the token, with the household result.

File history

Ketju has revised this file once since filing it. Ketju keeps each earlier version as published, with the reason for the change.
