Where DOC lives: supply by blockchain
Supply is concentrated: Rootstock holds 84% of all DOC. Moving it to another chain means bridging, or a mint and redeem through the issuer.
How DOC is backed
DOC 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: Using the Money On Chain app, users mint DoC by depositing rBTC into a vault. When the loan is repaid to retrieve the collateral, the paid back DoC is burned.
DOC risks
A sharp crash in the crypto collateral can outrun liquidations and leave the system under-backed.
Bugs, governance attacks or bad price feeds can drain collateral or trigger wrongful liquidations.
With $2.9M in circulation, exiting a large position may move the price. Redemption may be limited to approved customers.
Copies of a stablecoin moved by third-party bridges depend on those bridges. Prefer the issuer's native contract on each chain.
Rules such as the US GENIUS Act and the EU's MiCA can restrict which stablecoins exchanges list in a given country.
