📡wVBUSD Safety Pool

circle-check

The wVBUSD Safety Pool allows users to earn GoVBUSD yield on single-sided wVBUSD deposits. It is called the Safety Pool because it can potentially increase the protocol's backstop funding. This is accomplished via "slashing", or reducing users' deposit credit when certain conditions related to the health of the protocol are met. Any wVBUSD slashed in this manner is used directly to stabilize the protocol. GoVBUSD would only be used for stabilization if the Sinking Fund and other resources are already drained.

  • The pool accepts wVBUSD deposits

  • wVBUSD can be locked for any amount of time up to 4 years after the start time

  • Deposit credit is given according to lock time

    • Allocation Points = wVBUSD locked × lock duration

  • The pool emits GoVBUSD rewards to depositors, which can be harvested anytime

  • Deposit credit can be slashed (reduced) according to the hierarchy of Stabilization Mechanisms
