# Short-Term T-Bills | U.S. Treasury

Short-term U.S. Treasury bills are short-duration U.S. government securities with defined maturities and limited interest-rate sensitivity. ONyc utilizes 3-month Treasury bills to balance yield capture and liquidity under current market conditions.

The yield curve remains inverted, making short-dated maturities comparatively attractive while limiting duration risk. A 3-month tenor provides exposure to prevailing front-end yields while preserving flexibility to reprice capital as rates evolve.

Treasury bill exposure provides a stable base yield, supports liquidity management, does not introduce leverage, and is independent of digital asset price movements.
