Mint with USDC → hold USD* → earn yield automatically.
USD* is Perena’s liquid savings account for stablecoins: a single Solana token that quietly grows in value over time as yield accrues.
You don’t need to stake, rebalance, or pick strategies. Mint → Hold → Use—that’s it. Your dollars keep working while you sleep.
Why USD* Matters
Automatic Yield The token’s price rises as underlying assets earn income. All holders share the same return—no separate vaults or staking steps.
Always Liquid Redeemable 1:1 for USDC at any time, with deep on-chain liquidity.
Composability Designed to be the base stable asset for Solana DeFi, so you can move it anywhere in the ecosystem.
How to Mint USD*
The easiest way to get started is with USDC:
Visit the Portfolio Page Open the official USD* mint interface.
Enter Amount Specify how much USDC you’d like to deposit.
Confirm Transaction Approve the single on-chain transaction in your wallet.
Receive USD* Your freshly minted USD* arrives instantly in your Solana wallet.
That’s all. From this moment, your USD* balance is earning yield automatically—no staking, no claiming rewards.

Using USD* Across DeFi (Upcoming & Ongoing)
Once you hold USD*, it functions as a base-layer stablecoin:
Provide Liquidity in lending markets.
Use as Collateral where protocols support USD* directly.
Transfer or Bridge to cross-chain destinations as integrations expand.
Perena is actively partnering with DeFi protocols so that USD* becomes a standard unit of account and collateral across Solana.
Pro Tips for Holders
Hold & Earn Yield accrues in the token price itself. Simply holding USD* is enough to benefit.
Track Growth Watch the live USD* price or Net Asset Value (NAV) on the dashboard—it inches upward as underlying assets generate income.
Stay Informed The dashboard also displays the backing ratio, portfolio mix, and 24-hour liquidity coverage, so you can verify solvency in real time.
The Bigger Picture
Perena’s vision is to create the best form of money on Solana: a stable, composable dollar that combines on-chain transparency with institution-grade yield sources such as tokenized Treasuries, blue-chip on-chain lending, and carefully curated real-world credit.
Over the coming months, the portfolio will expand beyond today’s liquid lending core into a balanced mix of T-bills, market-neutral strategies, and secured RWA credit—while maintaining full transparency and live solvency metrics.
USD* is more than a savings token—it’s the foundation of a capital-efficient liquidity layer for the entire Solana ecosystem.
