* When you **deposit USD1 into Dolomite**, it immediately begins earning both lending yield and USD1 Points.
* You don’t need to stake, lock, or claim anything — it all happens automatically.
* USD1 used as **collateral in a borrow position** continues earning points while in use.
* You can create multiple isolated positions, borrow other assets against your USD1, or loop exposure to increase your overall USD1 balance and point generation.
* Points update continuously based on the USD1 you hold within Dolomite.

### **Step by Step**

**Step 1: Deposit**\
Deposit USD1 directly and skip to step 3, or bring any supported asset to Dolomite’s Ethereum deployment and proceed to step 2.

**Step 2: Swap**\
Use Dolomite’s [**Zap to Swap**](https://x.com/Dolomite_io/status/1896908234491076898) feature to convert your deposited assets into USD1 instantly. Zap integrates with Enso to route trades for optimal pricing and minimal slippage.

**Step 3: Earn**\
Once your USD1 is deposited to Dolomite you are earning USD1 points. Whether you utilize your USD1 as collateral in a borrow position or simply supply it on the Earn page, your capital begins generating lending yield, USD1 points, and oDOLO rewards.

**Optional Step 4: Amplify**\
Use your USD1 as collateral, borrow another stablecoin and loop up your exposure.
