Minting and Burning USDEFI

USDEFI tokens are minted when users draw loans against their BNB collateral within the DCNTRL Protocol. The minting process is entirely algorithmic, with the number of USDEFI tokens minted corresponding to the value of the loan drawn.

New USDEFI are minted when a user requests them against their BNB Collateral

Conversely, USDEFI tokens are burned when users repay their loans or when the tokens are redeemed for BNB. This process ensures that the total supply of USDEFI is always backed by an equivalent amount of BNB collateral within the protocol.

When a User repays USDEFI the protocol redeems or burns them to release the BNB collateral.

Maintaining the USDEFI Peg

The USDEFI token is designed to maintain a stable value pegged to the USD. This peg is maintained through a combination of algorithmic mechanisms and user actions within the DCNTRL Protocol. If the value of USDEFI deviates from its USD peg, users are incentivized to act in ways that restore the peg, through redemptions. The backing of each USDEFI token by BNB collateral plays a crucial role in maintaining this peg.
