(USDV)

Verified USD (USDV) is a stablecoin designed to maintain a 1:1 peg with the US Dollar. It is fully backed by Short-term Treasury Bill Tokens (STBT), which are themselves backed by cash, overnight repo, and short-term treasuries. USDV is compatible with the ERC-20 standard and functions as an omnichain stablecoin, integrated using LayerZero's Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard, allowing for broad interoperability across various blockchain networks.

USDV's inherent value is derived from its robust backing by a carefully maintained reserve of high-quality tokenized Real World Assets (RWAs). Specifically, it is initially backed by Short-term Treasury Bill Tokens (STBT). This reserve backing is crucial as it underpins USDV's stability and ensures its consistent 1:1 peg to the US Dollar, providing a reliable digital representation of the fiat currency.

USDV maintains its 1:1 peg through a combination of overcollateralization with cryptocurrency collateral and an algorithmic stabilization mechanism. If USDV's value drops below $1, the system incentivizes users to buy and redeem USDV for the underlying collateral. This action reduces the USDV supply, consequently increasing its price back towards the peg. Conversely, should USDV's value rise above $1, users are encouraged to mint new USDV by depositing more collateral. This increases the supply, helping to reduce the price back to its dollar peg.

USDV can be minted by approved entities known as Minters. Once these entities create USDV, it can then circulate freely, making it available for anyone to hold or use. Users can acquire USDV through various methods: by swapping other digital assets on trading platforms, by minting it directly by depositing cryptocurrency collateral, or by participating in DeFi protocols that support it. This broad accessibility ensures widespread availability.

Users can generate new USDV tokens by depositing approved collateral tokens into a designated USDV vault. The specific quantity of USDV that can be minted is determined by the collateralization ratio. This ratio dictates the required value of the deposited collateral relative to the amount of USDV being generated. This mechanism ensures that newly minted USDV is always sufficiently backed, contributing to its stability and peg integrity.

USDV is primarily backed by Short-term Treasury Bill Tokens (STBT), which represent US T-bill yields. The project emphasizes 100% transparency, offering real-time transaction insights via block explorers. Its Proof of Reserve (PoR) is powered by a leading oracle network. The underlying assets, comprising US treasury securities, are held under the custody of reputable financial institutions, with official attestations updated daily, providing a clear and verifiable backing for the stablecoin.
