Liquity USD, the crypto
Liquity USD (LUSD) is a decentralized, algorithmic stablecoin running on the Ethereum blockchain. It is designed to maintain a stable value of $1 USD through a series of mechanisms, including a collateral pool, incentivized borrowing and repayment, and a stability fee.
The point
The main point of Liquity USD (LUSD) is to provide a stablecoin that is less volatile than other cryptocurrencies and can be used for everyday transactions, without being subject to the price fluctuations seen in other tokens. This stability is maintained by the Liquity protocol, which adjusts the supply of LUSD to match demand.
The problem
Liquity USD (LUSD) tries to solve the problem of volatility in cryptocurrencies, which can be a barrier to their adoption as a medium of exchange. By providing a stablecoin, users are able to transact with confidence, knowing that the value of LUSD will remain relatively constant over time. Additionally, Liquity aims to reduce barriers to entry for borrowers, by enabling them to borrow and repay LUSD without requiring a fixed interest rate or liquidation penalty.
