Supply is concentrated: Ethereum holds 100% of all USD3. Moving it to another chain means bridging, or a mint and redeem through the issuer.

How USD3 is backed

USD3 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: Minting requires a deposit of the defined collateral tokens in equal value amounts to the RToken smart contracts.

USD3 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.

Small and thinly traded

With $1.7M in circulation, exiting a large position may move the price. Redemption may be limited to approved customers.

Regulation

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