Who created Balanced Dollar (BNUSD)?

bnUSD is a product of the Balanced ecosystem, which is described as a decentralised protocol with no central control, relying on distributed network technology.

How does Balanced Dollar (BNUSD) work?

BNUSD operates on a mechanism similar to MakerDAO's DAI. Users lock crypto collateral — supported assets include AVAX, BNB, BTCB, cbBTC, ETH, SOL, SUI, USDC, USDT, WBTC, WETH and wstETH — into the protocol to mint bnUSD as a loan. This process helps maintain the stablecoin's peg by tying its supply directly to locked value.

  • Collateralization: A bnUSD loan cannot exceed 80% of the value of the collateral supplied. If that threshold is breached, the position is partially liquidated to bring the debt back to a safe level.
  • Stability Mechanisms: bnUSD borrowing carries a fixed 2% rate plus a 0.1% borrow fee, and the outstanding debt increases over time. Peg support comes from loan liquidations and the Stability Fund, which swaps USDC and USDT 1:1 for bnUSD and arbitrages when bnUSD trades away from $1.
  • Redemption: Users can always repay their BNUSD debt plus accrued fees to unlock their collateral, which burns the repaid BNUSD, helping to regulate supply.

Risks

bnUSD is backed by volatile cryptoassets, so its value depends on over-collateralization rather than an algorithm. Positions can be partially liquidated when the loan exceeds 80% of the collateral value. Borrowing carries a 0.1% fee and debt increases over time. bnUSD targets a $1 peg but its market price can deviate, and users should monitor risk closely.
