Why StableUnit
Key Features & Advantages
StableUnit introduces several unique advantages that set it apart from first-generation stablecoins. The table below summarizes why StableUnit’s USD Pro is a game-changer:
In-Wallet Yield (No Rebasing)
Earn yield by simply holding USD Pro. Your USD Pro balance increases in real time, with zero staking or claiming. Unlike rebasing tokens, USD Pro’s balance growth doesn’t break integrations, so you can use it in any DeFi protocol normally.
Broad Collateral Support
Borrow against a wide array of assets. StableUnit accepts ETH, WBTC, and popular Liquid Staking Tokens (like stETH), as well as complex LP tokens from platforms like Curve/Convex, Aura/Balancer, Pendle, and others. This unlocks liquidity from yield-bearing assets that other protocols won’t accept, increasing your capital efficiency. Eligible assets shown on Earn page in the dApp.
“Zero-Click” DeFi Experience
User-friendly and seamless. StableUnit is designed so that even non-DeFi users can benefit. For example, you can one-click deposit ETH to automatically create a yield bearing position (i.e. stETH) and borrow against it​. For everyday users, simply buying USD Pro on an exchange gives instant access to yields from protocol's three revenue sources. No active management required.
Async MEV-Resistant Liquidation
Safer, fairer liquidations. StableUnit’s liquidation engine improves on the Aave model​ by deterministically assigning liquidators and using a fixed spread. This eliminates gas wars and MEV exploitation – liquidators don’t have to outbid each other, reducing costs. The protocol doesn’t need to offer large discounts to incentivize liquidation, preserving more value (which is given back to USD Pro holders as yield)​. Learn more.
Decentralized & Resilient
DAO‑governed with built‑in safety rails. StableUnit cannot freeze individual wallets the way USDC or USDT can, and every key parameter—collateral listings, fees, risk limits—is set transparently by SuDAO token‑ and NFT‑holders. An insurance fund and a formal risk framework act as additional backstops. To protect the system during severe anomalies such as oracle failures or attempted exploits, a circuit‑breaker temporarily caps total withdrawals at 15 % of TVL per day; this throttle is a pre‑programmed safeguard, not a discretionary freeze, and lifts automatically once conditions normalize.
Proven Model, Improved
Battle-tested foundation. StableUnit uses the over-collateralized CDP design pioneered by MakerDAO’s DAI, which has stood the test of time (surviving events like the 2018 crypto crash without losing DAI peg or user funds)​. Building on this solid base, StableUnit adds innovations (yield distribution, new collaterals, advanced liquidation) without compromising security or decentralization.
