The image visually reinforces the accompanying message that borrowers shouldn't pay interest on collateral that's already earning, showcasing Tangent's mechanism of minting USG while deferring costs through rewards adjustments rather than growing interest bills. > > "They want you to pay interest on collateral that’s already earning. @Tangent_fi HEC model changes that trade deposit eligible Curve LPs, mint $USG at 0% while the peg stays above its threshold, and pay through a rewards cut instead of a growing interest bill. That distinction" ### Post #2 by @Tangent_fi > **Author:** Tangent ([@Tangent_fi](https://x.com/Tangent_fi)) > **Metrics:** 18 likes · 10 retweets · 2 comments · 2.3K views > **Posted:** 2026-09-03T15:34:05+00:00 > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/Tangent_fi/status/2095535812922237336](https://x.com/Tangent_fi/status/2095535812922237336) > **Video Content:** A dark gradient background with a small "Tangent" logo and sparkle icon in the upper center. > > "HEC markets let Tangent users borrow $USG interest-free.
