About
This website allows you to:
- borrow (issue) discount stablecoins by locking your GBYTEs as collateral;
- repay the loans and release the collateral;
- exchange stablecoins for GBYTE and vice versa at a fixed exchange rate after expiry;
- participate in auctions for undercollateralized loans of other users;
- define a new stablecoin pegged to an asset/index of your choice. It becomes available to all users.
Every stablecoin has two distinct periods in its lifetime: before expiry and after expiry.
- After expiry, every stablecoin has guaranteed liquidity vs GBYTE, exactly at the exchange rate of the benchmark asset/index registered on the expiry date. This is what makes it pegged to the price of the asset/index it is tracking.
- Before the expiry date, stablecoins are freely traded between users (e.g. on ODEX decentralized exchange), and each stablecoin is expected to trade with discount relative to its benchmark asset/index. As it gets closer to the expiry, the discount decreases, therefore stablecoins appreciate. Buying a stablecoin early (with larger discount) and selling later (with smaller discount) allows to earn interest.
