Liquity is a decentralized borrowing protocol that allows you to draw interest-free loans against Ether used as collateral. Loans are paid out in LUSD (a USD pegged stablecoin) and need to maintain a minimum collateral ratio of 110%.
In addition to the collateral, the loans are secured by a Stability Pool containing LUSD and by fellow borrowers collectively acting as guarantors of last resort. Learn more about these mechanisms in our documentation.
Liquity as a protocol is non-custodial, immutable, and governance-free.
What’s the motivation behind Liquity?
Stable-value assets are an essential building block for Ethereum applications and have grown to represent tens of billions of dollars in value.
However, the vast majority of this value is in the form of fiat-collateralized stablecoins like Tether and USDC. Decentralized stablecoins like DAI and sUSD make up only a small portion of the total stablecoin supply, meaning the vast majority of stablecoins are centralized.
Liquity addresses this by creating a more capital efficient and user-friendly way to borrow stablecoins. Furthermore, Liquity is governance-free, ensuring that the protocol remains decentralized.
What are the key benefits of Liquity?
Liquity’s key benefits include:
Can Liquity be upgraded or changed?
No. Liquity has no admin key, and nobody can alter the rules of the system in any way. The smart contract code is completely immutable.
How can I use Liquity?
You first need to choose a web interface (aka frontend) to access the system. The core team building the protocol will not operate a frontend. Liquity is instead accessed by third-party frontend applications and integration services.
What are the main use cases of Liquity?
What are LUSD and LQTY?
LUSD is the USD-pegged stablecoin used to pay out loans on the Liquity protocol. At any time it can be redeemed against the underlying collateral at face value. Learn more about the stability mechanism.
LQTY is the secondary token issued by Liquity. It captures the fee revenue that is generated by the system and incentivizes early adopters and frontends. The total LQTY supply is capped at 100,000,000 tokens. For more information on how the tokens are allocated and released over time, please refer to LQTY Rewards and Distribution.
What do I need in order to use Liquity?
To borrow LUSD, all you need is a wallet (e.g. MetaMask) and sufficient Ether to open a Trove and pay the gas fees.
To become a Stability Pool depositor or LQTY staker, you need to have LUSD and/or LQTY tokens. LUSD can be borrowed by opening a Trove while LQTY can be earned as a Stability Pool depositor. You can also use Uniswap or another (decentralized) exchange to buy the tokens on the open market.
Does Liquity charge any fees?
There is a one-off fee whenever LUSD is borrowed, and when LUSD is redeemed:
Both fees depend on the redemption volumes, i.e. they increase upon every redemption in function of the redeemed amount, and decay over time as long as no redemptions take place. The intent is to throttle large redemptions with higher fees, and to throttle borrowing directly after large redemption volumes. The fee decay over time ensures that the fee for both borrowers and redeemers will “cool down”, while redemptions volumes are low.The fees cannot become smaller than 0.5% (except in Recovery Mode), which protects the redemption facility from being misused by arbitrageurs front-running the price feed. The borrowing fee is capped at 5%, keeping the system (somewhat) attractive for borrowers even in phases where the monetary is contracting due to redemptions. Other than that, the two fees are identical and are depicted as "Fee" in the following exemplary chart:
How can I earn money using Liquity?
There are two different ways to generate revenue using Liquity:
Can I lose my funds?
As a non-custodial system, all the tokens sent to the protocol will be held and managed algorithmically without the interference of any person or legal entity. That means your funds will only be subject to the rules set forth in the smart contract code, which is being audited twice by Trail of Bits and once by Coinspect (find their reports here).
There are two scenarios under which you may lose a part of your funds:
