Supply is concentrated: Solana holds 100% of all PAI. Moving it to another chain means bridging, or a mint and redeem through the issuer.

How PAI is backed

PAI 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 Parrot app, users mint PAI by depositing an accepted collateral asset into a vault. When the loan is repaid to retrieve the collateral, the paid back PAI is burned.
