yvToken as collateral

Why use yvTokens as collateral?

They’re yield generating

A Yearn Vault token is a yield-bearing version of a token, so when locked up as collateral it will still generate yield. A single vault token can run up to 20 yield-generating strategies. All Vaults at yearn.finance main website run "uponly" strategies.
