Introducing the USDC Savings Vault: Earn with sUSDC

Spark Savings enables stablecoin holders to earn a competitive risk-adjusted rate in DeFi at scale, with minimal liquidity constraints. This rate is determined by the Sky Savings Rate, which is set by Sky governance based on market conditions and Sky’s revenue.
