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.

Description

Offshift offers users the flexibility of cross-chain interactions, allowing them to leverage the network that aligns with their individual needs. Our vision for a multi-chain future mirrors that of Parity Technologies and Purestake, prompting us to build our Private Derivatives Platform on both Ethereum and the EVM-compatible Polkadot Parachain, Moonbeam. The traditional model of over-collateralization is inefficient and restricts liquidity access for users, a problem Offshift aims to solve; our platform allows you to receive exactly what you burn—dollar-for-dollar and sat-for-sat. The self-balancing XFT supply adapts to market price changes, effectively eliminating the issues of margin calls and liquidations that often plague other platforms. Upholding Offshift’s dedication to privacy, our team has opted for anonymity, yet we encourage you to connect with us; our team leads are actively engaging in discussions within our Telegram community, where we foster a welcoming environment for inquiries and collaboration. We believe that transparency in communication is key to building trust with our users.
