# Welcome to Saturn

The global financial system is being rebuilt on new foundations. As traditional finance converges with crypto, Bitcoin is emerging as a neutral, transparent collateral asset, and a new credit system is forming on top of it.

We see this new financial stack in three layers:

1. **Digital capital** is Bitcoin.
2. **Digital credit** is the layer being built by Strategy and others on top of Bitcoin, creating a native yield curve across duration, yield, and risk.
3. **Financial applications** are the next layer built on top of both.

Saturn is building that third layer. It is the digital monetary layer for a financial system backed by Bitcoin.

### How It Works

Saturn operates through a dual-token system that separates liquidity from yield:

* **USDat** is a stablecoin backed by tokenized treasuries, designed for payments, settlements, and DeFi liquidity.
* **sUSDat** is a staked version that accrues yield from digital credit exposure, targeting 11%+.

At launch, sUSDat's digital credit exposure will be 100% STRC, Strategy's short-term, high-yield preferred equity instrument.
