# Overview

### What is StableLayer?

**StableLayer** is a **stablecoin‑as‑a‑service** infrastructure for Web3 teams. Inside your product, you can launch a **branded stablecoin (BrandUSD)** while routing the underlying **USDC** into the **USDC Yield Aggregator** to generate real yield. **All baseline yield accrues to the partner** and can be claimed from the **Admin Page** at any time to fund incentives, operations, or buybacks—turning capital inflows into a sustainable growth engine.

#### Why StableLayer

**Challenges**

* **Unstable and undiversified revenue**: over‑reliance on a single or purely endogenous incentive loop can spiral during market drawdowns—risking a **death spiral**.
* **Low capital efficiency**: stablecoins sitting in treasuries or user‑deposit contracts remain idle, incurring large opportunity costs.

**Solutions**

* **Bring in external yield sources**: StableLayer pipes assets into carefully selected external stablecoin yield channels (v1: **Bucket Savings Pool** with **auto‑compound**) to **stabilize and diversify** protocol revenue.
* **Keep user flows unchanged; strengthen protocol cash flow**: Users still interact with a stablecoin (BrandUSD) in your product, while the protocol captures a **new, independent cash flow** owned by you.

#### Who is this for

**Any product that can create a stablecoin use case** — including but not limited to games, perpetual DEXs, yield aggregators, derivatives, and other DeFi projects.
