    Safuu (acronym of Sustainable Asset Fund for Universal Users) is a decentralized digital currency and a DeFi auto-staking and auto-compounding protocol that, at the time of its introduction, set the record for the highest annual percentage yield in the decentralized finance space, with an APY of 383,025.80%. [3] The interest is automatically paid to the holders of the token in their wallet, by increasing their amount of Safuu at a rate of 0.02355% every fifteen minutes, that is ninety six times per day. [4] Founded in the first quarter of 2022 by a team of developers headed by Australian entrepreneur Bryan Legend, [5] Safuu held its initial coin offering on March 1, 2022 with an initial supply of 325,000 tokens. [6] The project's smart contract has been deployed on the Binance Smart Chain. It has since quickly drawn attention within the crypto community for its features, such as the Fire Pit, an automated token burning process, [7] the "Auto Liquidity Engine" and the LIC (Longterm Interest Cycle), mechanisms that help to contain inflation and keep the project sustainable, despite its high interest yield. [8] [9] On April 23, 2022, the team announced they began developing a proprietary blockchain, to be completed by July 2023. [10]

    A decentralised application is an application that can operate autonomously, typically through the use of smart contracts, that runs on a decentralized computing, blockchain system. Like traditional applications, DApps provide some function or utility to its users. However, unlike traditional applications, DApps operate without human intervention and are not owned by any one entity, rather DApps distribute tokens that represent ownership. These tokens are distributed according to a programmed algorithm to the users of the system, diluting ownership and control of the DApp. Without any one entity controlling the system, the application becomes decentralised.

    Decentralized finance (DeFi) offers financial instruments without relying on intermediaries such as brokerages, exchanges, or banks by using smart contracts on a blockchain. DeFi platforms allow people to lend or borrow funds from others, speculate on price movements on assets using derivatives, trade cryptocurrencies, insure against risks, and earn interest in savings-like accounts. DeFi uses a layered architecture and highly composable building blocks. Some applications promote high interest rates but are subject to high risk. As of February 2022, the value of assets used in decentralized finance amounted to $200 billion.

Dai is maintained and regulated by MakerDAO, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) composed of the owners of its governance token, MKR, who may vote on changes to certain parameters in its smart contracts in order to ensure the stability of Dai.
