I'm proud to announce that @Saturn_credit has participated in @Strive's $SATS IPO, allocating directly from our own treasury. SATS is a cumulative fixed-rate perpetual preferred, junior to $SATA and senior to $ASST, with a 15% annual dividend paid every business day. We see SATS as a meaningful step forward for digital credit, and over time we're exploring ways to bring instruments like it to our global investor base. As allocators in the digital equity and credit ecosystem, our team is continually impressed by Strive's rigor around ASST amplification, paired with a willingness to redefine the design space for digital credit. Strive is also exceedingly vocal about its long-term decision-making process and execution strategy, which allowed it to turn the warrant expiry into a showcase of balance sheet expertise and, now, an opportunity for net new capital to gain $BTC exposure through SATS. We started Saturn on the premise that digital credit is the substrate for Bitcoin's global adoption. Like Strive, our goal is to advance the frontier of Bitcoin's financialization. We saw this firsthand with SATA's daily dividends, and we're excited to see what comes next from Strive, @Strategy, and other issuers as the industry builds toward a 24/7 financial world. In Saturn's case, we advance it by making digital credit accessible around the clock to a global audience, and by expanding the Bitcoin risk-return curve through our digital dollar and yield products. We look forward to supporting future offerings that move Bitcoin forward. Congratulations @ColeMacro, @Werkman, @PunterJeff, @AdamBLiv, @IIICapital, and the rest of the Strive team. Note: Saturn's participation in SATS was made from its own treasury and does not affect USDat, sUSDat, or any existing Saturn product or holder.

Live now: Ondo’s STRCon powers @saturn_credit’s latest digital credit upgrade. Redemptions from sUSDat to USDat move from T+7 to T+1, with 24/7 pricing. Tokenized assets are becoming the foundation for a new generation of financial products.
Today, Saturn upgraded its infrastructure with @Ondo technology to make digital credit liquid, 24/7, and composable, so structured yield products can reach investors who previously couldn't access them. The sUSDat V2 upgrade is now complete. Full details below.

The sUSDat V2 upgrade is complete. STRC has been rotated into STRCon. Regular processing resumes Mon Oct 5. Important: Redemptions are now processed by minimum sUSDat share price. Queue positions below #1165 must reset to a minimum sUSDat share price, not total USDat.
The sUSDat V2 upgrade has been proposed, starting a 5-day timelock. Expected execution: Wed Sep 30. Redemption processing is slowed ahead of the transition. Yield passback is paused. Accruals from Sep 25 onwards will be passed back the week of Oct 5. Details below.

The deep amount of anxiety people in tech are feeling is off the charts. Had a couple conversations with people of various ages and the themes are: - Every day there are 5 new earth shattering new tech breakthroughs. I can’t keep up. Should I be keeping up? Am I falling behind? - What does my career and skill mean in the age of AI? Is software engineering a 30yr long career any more? Is product management? - Is my only hope to start a company? - At the very least, it feels like I should join a startup but which one? Everything seems either overvalued or has no moat. - Okay I joined a startup. Is my company’s equity worth anything or will this be another Airtable or Miro? - Startup is doing well. How in the world am I supposed to find a significant other? - Will these immigration policy shifts allow me to be here long term? - Will I ever be able to afford a house and a life in the Bay Area amidst the biggest wealth creation event of all time? - Okay, I figured all of that out. What is my purpose? I’m wealthy but no one really cares. I don’t really know what to do with it. Am I supposed to start a company? - Alright I found peace in kids. But I’m worried about them. How does one raise kids in this climate? What are the rules of this new world order? Many of these concerns are of course not limited to tech or the Bay, although it feels particularly concentrated here (versus what I see in NYC). Maybe some people will read this and feel anxious themselves, and for that I apologize. For the rest, just know that it’s not just you who feels this way. It’s a lot of people!
