Minting USDQ

USDQ offers multiple minting pathways to suit different user needs, enabling flexibility based on collateral types and strategic preferences.

There are currently two ways to mint USDQ:

• Classic Mint – for users who wish to mint USDQ with stablecoins (e.g., USDT, USDC) or crypto assets like ETH and BTC. Stablecoin deposits receive USDQ at a 1:1 ratio, while non-stablecoin assets are subject to a dynamic overcollateralization model to maintain system solvency.

• Innovative Mint – designed for users who prefer to commit non-stablecoin collateral for a fixed term. This mechanism allows access to USDQ liquidity while potentially capturing a portion of upside volatility through pre-defined strike price levels and capital efficiency parameters.

All USDQ minted is fully backed and governed by the protocol’s risk framework. Overcollateralization remains a core principle, ensuring that each unit of USDQ is supported by assets exceeding its face value — preserving stability across changing market conditions.
