This design enables you to issue and control your own token, while maintaining a strict 1:1 backing with institutional-grade USD reserves. You retain full flexibility over token economics, permissions, and user experience.
| **Growth & Liquidity** | **Institutional Security & Control** | **Flexible Technology** |
|---|---|---|
| **Institutional Rewards**: Unlike traditional stablecoin issuers who keep 100% of the interest, Agora operates an **Open Reward Model**. Revenue is distributed back to you based on your token’s market cap. | **1:1 Asset Backing**: Every newUSD token is a direct claim on **AUSD** held within your contract. Reserves are managed by **VanEck** and custodied by **State Street**, ensuring bankruptcy remoteness. | **Full ERC4626 Compatibility**: A plug-and-play standard that ensures your stablecoin works instantly with yield aggregators, lending markets, and DEXs. |
| **Native Liquidity Rails**: Tap into Agora’s global ecosystem. Mint/Redeem your branded stablecoin directly against **USDC** or **USDT** at 1:1 through **AUSD**, bypassing the need for expensive, shallow liquidity pools. | **Compliance Inheritance**: Automatically mirrors AUSD’s institutional freeze list. If an address is flagged for AML/Sanctions on the underlying AUSD contract, it is restricted from interacting with your token. | **Transparent Proxy Upgrades**: Uses the Transparent Proxy Pattern to allow for seamless logic updates without requiring a token migration or changing the contract address. |
| **No Vendor Lock-In**: Maintain full future flexibility and control, with no exclusivity requirements, exit fees, or restrictive contracts. Enable multi-collateral or off-chain backing as you grow. | **Two-Step Ownership**: High-stakes operations require a two-step “propose and accept” process, eliminating the risk of accidental ownership loss via fat-finger errors. | **Gasless Transfers (EIP-2612)**: Native support for `permit()`, allowing users to sign approvals off-chain. This removes the “first-transaction” hurdle, significantly increasing conversion rates. |
| **Emergency Pause**: Owner-controlled “circuit breaker” can instantly halt deposits, withdrawals, and transfers during emergencies. |
