Spark has implemented a significant upgrade to its revenue reporting infrastructure. Key Updates: - New revenue reporting system deployment - Live explanation session scheduled - @hexonaut to host Spark Spaces #12 **Event Details**: - Date: August 7 - Time: 4:30 PM UTC - Focus: Detailed breakdown of system changes Join the live session to understand the technical improvements and their implications for the platform.

Spark has achieved a significant milestone by becoming fully autonomous as a subDAO within the Sky ecosystem. The protocol now independently: - Governs its operations - Manages capital deployment - Provides live revenue reporting This development represents a key advancement toward greater transparency and scalability in DeFi. The new structure and financial reporting details were shared by Phoenix Labs CEO @hexonaut. *Recent Background*: Earlier this year, Spark launched successful USDC vaults across Arbitrum, Base, and Ethereum mainnet, with sUSDS supply exceeding $10M on Arbitrum within 10 days of launch.

Traditional banking systems continue to face criticism for: - Requiring permissions for personal fund access - Lacking default transparency - Operating with user value extraction models Spark emerges as a decentralized alternative, aiming to address these limitations in traditional banking infrastructure. The protocol integrates with the DAI ecosystem to provide permissionless financial services. *Key Differentiators*: - Direct user control over funds - Default transparency - User-centric value model - Decentralized architecture

Spark Protocol has revealed its comprehensive infrastructure for yield generation and management. The system integrates: - Multiple stablecoins (USDS, sUSDS, sDAI, USDC) - SkyLink and CCTP bridge technologies - Active Liquidity Management (ALM) system The Sky Savings Rate (SSR) serves as the primary yield source for USDS, funded by: - Crypto-collateralized loan fees - Spark Liquidity Layer revenues - U.S. Treasury bill investments With projected annual revenue of $400M (Spark contributing $130M), the protocol aims to deliver sustainable yields through governance-controlled rates. This structure maintains stable borrowing rates across connected protocols. [Learn more about Spark's yield generation](https://messari.io/report/understanding-spark-a-comprehensive-overview)
