How SUSD is backed

SUSD is minted against crypto collateral locked in smart contracts, usually worth more than the stablecoins issued, with liquidations or hedges protecting the peg.

Minting and redemption: An SNX holder can mint sUSD by locking their SNX as collateral via the Synthetix smart contract. sUSD can be burned to swap to another synthetic asset or to repay the debt to retrieve the collateral.

SUSD risks

Collateral and liquidations

A sharp crash in the crypto collateral can outrun liquidations and leave the system under-backed.

Smart contracts and oracles

Bugs, governance attacks or bad price feeds can drain collateral or trigger wrongful liquidations.

Bridged versions

Copies of a stablecoin moved by third-party bridges depend on those bridges. Prefer the issuer's native contract on each chain.

Regulation

Rules such as the US GENIUS Act and the EU's MiCA can restrict which stablecoins exchanges list in a given country.
