USP Max APY Yield Strategy

USP is Piku Finance's yield-optimized stablecoin that appreciates in value through a diversified backing strategy including FX arbitrage and DeFi protocols, rather than maintaining a fixed $1 peg.

How the strategy works

This is a max-APY yield loop: USP is supplied as collateral and USDC is borrowed against it on Morpho, then recycled back into USP to multiply the underlying FX Arbitrage + DeFi yield. Because the two assets are price-correlated, the position targets amplified yield rather than directional price exposure.
