Thanks for the proposal @saturn_credit. It is great to see new and innovative yield sources continue to be brought forward. I would like to highlight some issues with the proposal, though:
1. This specific integration would not be feasible under the current Summer architecture. Summer can only allocate to vaults (ARKs) that natively accept the base asset of the strategy, USDC. Since Saturn’s sUSDat requires a different asset flow (swap USDC to USDat) and does not support direct USDC deposits into a compatible ARK structure, it falls outside the set of allocatable strategies for the lower-risk USDC vault. (Someone, feel free to correct me if I am mistaken here).
2. I have some concerns around lindiness here. Given that this is a relatively new project without a long-standing track record, it introduces an additional layer of uncertainty, particularly for a vault that is explicitly positioned as lower-risk.
Overall, though, exposure to STRC is something I’m personally interested in integrating with Summer, but I’m not convinced that Saturn is the optimal or even viable path to gain that exposure within the current system constraints.
It would be great to revisit if the structure evolves to support direct USDC compatibility or if the product matures further from a lindy perspective.
