In traditional finance, intermediaries like banks often capture most of the value generated from capital, leaving investors with limited returns. Even within decentralized finance (DeFi), many stablecoin issuers mirror this approach, keeping yield from underlying assets for themselves, while users benefit only from price stability.
Sage is here to disrupt this model by offering a solution that emphasizes transparency, user empowerment, and privacy, while still delivering the reliability of traditional finance.
At the heart of Sage is stUSDC, a yield-bearing stable asset that aligns user and protocol interests. When you hold stUSDC, you receive yields generated from the underlying Treasury Bills, while maintaining the stability and flexibility needed for DeFi.
Key features of the Sage protocol include:
U.S. Treasury-Backed Stability:Â stUSDC is collateralized by U.S. Treasury Bills, anchoring its value in the stability of traditional financial assets, while providing exposure to DeFi yields.
True financial freedom: Experience true financial openness with Sage's user-first protocol, designed to make DeFi accessible to everyone.
Sage's implementation leverages the ERC-4626 standard, enabling seamless integration with the broader DeFi ecosystem while maintaining the security of traditional finance:
Users mint or acquire stUSDC, which is fully backed by U.S. Treasury Bills through our trusted partner OpenTrade.
These Treasury Bills generate continuous returns, which automatically compound into stUSDC holdings - creating passive value growth without any user action.
By holding stUSDC, users are integrated into a financial ecosystem that prioritizes empowerment and efficiency. Sage offers a unique opportunity to seamlessly earn yield on U.S. Treasury Bills, without the complexity or intermediaries typically found in both traditional finance and DeFi.
