Description
Experience the benefits of borrowing without the burden of monthly payments. Our innovative approach involves developing cutting-edge open-source applications that facilitate access to the Arkadiko protocol. By collateralizing your STX tokens, you can mint our stablecoin USDA, which serves as a valuable resource for yield farming. Additionally, you can trade your preferred tokens on the Arkadiko decentralized exchange, all built on the robust Stacks blockchain. Stake your DIKO tokens to earn rewards, receiving stDIKO in return, which grants you a voice in governance voting. Participate in shaping the future of the protocol by voting on proposals, including adjustments to risk parameters for Arkadiko collateral types. As a decentralized and transparent DAO, Arkadiko is committed to open development, with all our code available under the GPLv3 license. Join us in revolutionizing finance on Stacks and Bitcoin, enhancing liquidity through a stablecoin soft-pegged to the US Dollar while preserving exposure to your original assets. Your STX tokens not only generate yield but also facilitate the automatic repayment of the USDA loan over time, ensuring a seamless borrowing experience. Engage with our community and contribute to the evolution of decentralized finance.
Description
Ducat is a Bitcoin-native lending and stablecoin protocol that enables users to borrow against BTC without transferring custody to a centralized lender. The protocol places Bitcoin into a 2-of-2 Taproot vault and allows borrowers to mint UNIT or receive USDC against the value of their collateral. Loan creation, redemptions, liquidations, and other core mechanics are enforced through Bitcoin transactions and Script rather than through an external blockchain or Layer 2 network. Borrowers can select different collateral ratios based on their preferred risk level and can borrow up to 62.5% of the BTC value held in a vault. Ducat charges a one-time 7% minting fee and does not charge ongoing interest on the loan. A dashboard shows collateral ratios, liquidation prices, BTC price updates, and vault health so users can monitor and manage their borrowing positions. UNIT is a dollar-pegged stablecoin backed by overcollateralized Bitcoin and can be transferred through the protocol's ecash layer or exchanged for USDC. The protocol also includes a liquidation system in which participants can recapitalize undercollateralized vaults and receive discounted BTC. Ducat states that every vault and loan can be independently verified on Bitcoin and that the system can operate without custodians, bridges, or wrapped BTC. Ducat is intended for Bitcoin holders, BTC-focused investors, and decentralized finance users seeking non-custodial access to dollar-denominated liquidity.
