# Core Features & Value Proposition

**High Yield. Protected. Transparent.**

Yuzu Money’s objective is to **deliver exposure to some of DeFi’s best yields to everyone with risk mitigation layers and observable backing.**

At the core is [yzUSD](/yuzu-money/yuzu-alpha/yuzu-stablecoin-yzusd.md), an overcollateralized stablecoin backed by curated on-chain strategies in a single tokenized form.<br>

* **Risk Tranching** ([yzPP](/yuzu-money/yuzu-alpha/yuzu-protection-pool-yzpp.md)): A first-loss pool earns higher target yield for assuming higher risk.<br>
* **Semi-Automated Exploit Response** ([Sentinel](/yuzu-money/security-infrastructure/hypernative-sentinel.md) powered by Hypernative): Real-time on chain exploit monitoring with semi-automated response.<br>

These elements combine to present **curated yield** access plus **institutional style risk features** in a single stablecoin experience.
