Disclosures
- Rebalance Pool: If the collateralization ratio (CR) falls below 160%, no new aUSD can be minted. If the CR drops below 147.5%, a portion of the aUSD deposited by users into the Rebalance Pool will be automatically redeemed for sAVAX. This sAVAX will be returned to the Rebalance Pool, where users can later claim it. The purpose of this mechanism is to restore the CR back to 160%, and the underlying assets remain owned by the users.
- No Lock Up: There is no lockup period for the assets; users can easily mint/redeem the assets without delay.
