Key Highlights:

• Solayer’s sUSD pays out 4-5% interest in USDC, no staking or manual work required.
• Backed by U.S. Treasury Bills, sUSD offers a secure 1:1 peg that adjusts balances automatically.

Yello Paradisers! Solayer Labs is bringing a little twist to stablecoins with the launch of sUSD, the first-ever yield-bearing stablecoin backed by U.S. Treasury Bills on Solana. 

But here’s the kicker: this isn’t just any stablecoin. sUSD offers a 4% yield, paid straight into your balance in USDC, no staking, no endless protocols, just a setup that does all the heavy lifting for you. The only thing you need to do is sit back and watch your sUSD balance grow.

How Does It Work?

At the heart of sUSD lies an automated decentralized protocol that acts as a marketplace engine, connecting your USDC deposits to Treasury Bills via tokenizers. When you deposit USDC, the funds are used to purchase these stable government-backed assets. In exchange, you receive sUSD, maintaining that all-important 1:1 peg to USDC and Treasury Bills, ensuring stability that rivals a bank account but with an enviable 4-5% yield.

And thanks to Solana’s account model, there’s no need for staking or any other manual involvement. Instead, sUSD applies a ‘multiplier’ on holdings to mirror the interest rate, letting your balance naturally increase over time. It’s like having a high-yield savings account in the crypto world.

Institutional-Level Security with a Decentralized Edge

For those cautious about security, sUSD leverages OpenEden, the first tokenized RWA (real-world assets) platform that’s even rated by Moody’s. Backed by $150 million in liquidity, OpenEden ensures institutional-level security while keeping everything decentralized. And if that’s not enough, sUSD doubles as collateral in Solana’s PoS ecosystem, supporting various decentralized applications from layer-two networks to oracles.

What’s Next for sUSD?

In a move that would make even traditional finance blush, Solayer isn’t stopping at Treasury Bills. They’re planning to expand sUSD’s backing with low-risk real-world assets, including oil and gold, in the near future. It’s a yield-bearing stablecoin that aims to be as diversified as it is profitable.
