Hello Bitcointalk community!

I'm here with great news! The new version of Autonomous Secure Dollar was deployed on Arbitrum (12 March 2024). Now, the contract is immutable and has been audited by Hacken with a 9.3 score.

I'm so proud and excited! Please, do your own research, read more about us, and review the audit report.

All information and links were added at the beginning of this thread.

1. Чрезвычайно обеспеченный. USSD стейблкоин полностью обеспечен децентрализованными криптоактивами. Кроме того, соотношение залогового обеспечения к капитализации USSD стейблкоин должно быть в будущем более чем в 10 раз.

Чрезвычайно обеспеченный и чрезвычайно депегнутый и волатильный. Гляжу на график и не вижу там вообще ничего от стейблкоина:

Проект только вышел и уже в де-пеге валяется, зато сколько красивых и громких слов о нём написано. Как говорится, меньше слов-больше дела, пока что это не стейблкоин, а очередной нестабильный шлак с крайне посредственным обеспечением.

Здравствуйте! Благодарим Вас за ценный отзыв. Стабильная монета USSD в связи с ее текущим низким уровнем капитализации и популярности не часто ребалансируется для поддержания привязки к $1.

Если Вы заметили, что цена отклоняется от $1, Вы можете воспользоваться функцией ребалансировки, чтобы вернуть ее к намеченной привязке. Исчерпывающую инструкцию по проведению ребалансировки можно найти в нашем руководстве [здесь] (https://zircon-neon-934.notion.site/How-to-do-Rebalance-of-USSD-BEP20-d774266160d84697be0a3f94ce835cb8?pvs=4).

Кроме того, мы активно работаем над решением, которое позволит обменивать 1 USSD на 1 DAI в любое время, независимо от текущей цены USSD, что обеспечит более стабильную работу.


Я глубоко не копал, но у этого фантика какие то аномальные торги,... за последнюю неделю сделки были с тремя  обычными адресами и 12-ю смарт-контрактами. Возможно, это арбитражники, но это всё равно ненормальное соотношение для таких низколиквидных фантиков.

Что касается структуры обеспечения, то мы знаем об опасениях по поводу использования wBGL в качестве части структуры обеспечения в связи с его модернизируемостью и централизацией. Уверяем вас, мы старательно работаем над архитектурными решениями для снижения этих рисков и повышения общей стабильности. Другими активами в обеспечении являются хорошо известные активы DAI (USDT в bep20), wBTC, cETH.

I saw here a program to increase liquidity on the DEX. And there are any investment portfolios on deposits? That is, I am ready, for example, to swap and invest 10k USSD with guaranteed interest. I think it will push and expand the community of this label.
And another question about your NFT. When will there be sales?

Hello! Thank you for your enthusiasm and input on improving liquidity. We appreciate your feedback and have taken it to heart. We're actively working on developing a smart contract that will ensure guaranteed interests for liquidity providers. This smart contract will enhance the transparency and security of our reward system. We're also exploring other reward-based initiatives that will be based on locked smart contracts to provide even more opportunities for our community. Your support and ideas are invaluable in shaping the future of USSD!

Вы уверены что разработчики DAI могут заморозить токены?
Смартконтракт у них не менялся с того времени
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5247581

Здравствуйте,

При повторном просмотре кода приношу свои извинения за допущенную оплошность. Я оперативно исправлю этот раздел. Уточню, что функции, позволяющей команде заморозить токены для держателей токенов, не существует. Однако существует потенциальный риск с DAO: они могут под влиянием голосования нецелевым образом использовать залог, возможно даже причудливо решив потратить его на поездку на Мальдивы! Smiley

Original in English
Hello,

Upon reviewing the code again, I sincerely apologize for the oversight. I'll correct that section promptly. To clarify, there's no function that allows the team to freeze tokens for token holders. However, there is a potential risk with the DAO; they might be influenced to vote on misusing the collateral, perhaps even whimsically deciding to spend it on a trip to the Maldives! Smiley

With the total supply of 7k tokens, I can only say good luck to your ambitious project. Many projects faces challenges in the beginning and saw slow adoption. Current market sentiment and strict regulation in stablecoin caused the loss of market cap of several top-class stablecoins. People are redeeming their stablecoin into fiat currency in fear of being trapped down. I hope your project will be able to overcome all of these difficulties.

BTW are you guys running any campaigns in bitcointalk? I would like to promote your project as much as i can.

Thank you so much for the kind words! Yes, we are progressing, albeit at a measured pace, with our primary focus on developing impeccable code. If you have any suggestions or ideas, please share them with us directly through messages or, better yet, drop us an email at hi@ussd.ai.

1. What trading pairs with USSD are you planning?

Currently, USSD is available on Uniswap and can be acquired using any coin, with a primary focus on DAI. While we might consider other popular coins in the future, our main attention is on DAI for now.


2. Wouldn't listing a stablecoin on a Centralized Exchange (CEX) present challenges due to the anonymity of your team? Do you plan to solely rely on Decentralized Exchanges (DEX)?

Indeed, the anonymity of our team may complicate listing on a CEX. Nevertheless, we're confident that DEXs can meet all our needs.


3. CoinMarketCap (CMC) shows a contract number for USSD, but the displayed logo doesn't match yours. Is that your contract?

That's intriguing. We did reach out to CMC, but given our current market cap, we don't meet their criteria. Once we surpass $200k, we intend to list USSD properly.


4. Will the primary liquidity pool be paired with DAI?

Yes, our main liquidity pool will be paired with DAI, as USSD is currently pegged to DAI.


5. If a flaw is discovered in the DEX code and a hacker exploits it, what could potentially occur?

Our team is committed to crafting a resilient smart contract. We've recently completed a second audit with a renowned, albeit anonymous, smart contract firm due to KYC considerations. While more audits are on the horizon, we, like many in the crypto industry, cannot guarantee perpetual immunity from all potential threats.

Do you have any audit report from sherlock team. It should be publicly available in the website so that there won't be any lack of transparency regarding audit outcomes and how you fixed the issue.

Certainly! The audit report from the Sherlock team is publicly accessible for everyone to review. Here's the link https://github.com/sherlock-audit/2023-05-USSD-judging/issues. We are dedicated to transparency and have detailed how we addressed any issues identified in the report.

You have said there will not be any governance because it will weaken the autonomy but i believe it will be an issue in the future. Locking the code and make it immutable will enhance the security but it will sacrifice the adaptability in the changing market conditions.

We appreciate your perspective. Our standpoint is rooted in the belief that genuine decentralization can only be realized by locking a contract. While DAOs can offer some advantages, they can also be susceptible to manipulation. It's the same for even major networks like Ethereum and Bitcoin. Our goal is to design an architecture that is both optimal and straightforward.


Solely depends on saving and donation will not be sustainable in the long run. What will happens to the project if team spend all of its savings and donation funds and there is not left over to spend more? I think this is the biggest issue for the project.

We understand the concern. Our commitment through savings is our token of dedication to the crypto community. If the USSD project resonates with the community's needs, we trust that users will champion it. We are confident in USSD's potential as a remarkably secure stablecoin. Its foundational principles of radical over-collateralization, complete autonomy, and resistance to bans lend it unparalleled value in our view.

We have seen overcollateralization stablecoin protocol but extreme overcollateralization is something new. Overcollateralization is a way that many stablecoin protocol uses to maintain its peg and stability but with a collateral to capitalization ratio of more than 10x what you are going to achieve? How this will get extra benefits to the protocol i do not understand. Other overcollateralization protocol maintain a standard capitalization ratio but i do not know if any protocol even has 2x. The projects commitment to autonomy will prevent any kind of 3rd party involvement of manipulating the protocol. Furthermore operate as a non profit organization and offer the code as open source gives the project transparency and trust.

But i have some concern that i need answer to:

1. The Sherlock team's audit is well recognize in the industry but could you elaborate on the scope and thoroughness of the audit?

2. How will you manage the risks associated with BGL's small capitalization and deflationary nature?

3. Will you elaborate the way of making governance decision how you are going to face the governance voting manipulation ?

4. In a competitive stablecoin market what strategy you are going to use for marketing? 

5. As a non profit entity how you are going to maintain the projects operational cost?



Sure, I'll condense the answers and put the corresponding questions before them:

1. Could you elaborate on the scope and thoroughness of the Sherlock team's audit?
Sherlock's audit is renowned for its meticulous examination of smart contracts. Our code underwent a rigorous review, resulting in 900+ suggestions from 70+ Sherlocks. We're also preparing for another anonymous audit with a prominent auditor, in which we're implementing a three-iteration review system. Ensuring code safety is our priority, and we're open to further audits if necessary.

2. How will you manage the risks associated with BGL's small capitalization and deflationary nature?
We mitigate potential risks through diversified collateral - BGL, BTC, ETH, and DAI. This mix, combined with USSD's over-collateralization design, reduces single asset risk and buffers against extreme volatility. BGL's deflationary nature can potentially boost the collateral base as its value increases over time.

3. Will you elaborate the way of making governance decision? How are you going to face the governance voting manipulation?
We believe governance could weaken autonomy, so we plan no governance. Once we ensure the code is safe and optimally functioning, we will lock it up and make it non-upgradable. Thus, even if the founders disappear, the stable will continue to operate.

4. In a competitive stablecoin market, what strategy are you going to use for marketing?
Our strategy prioritizes user education about USSD's unique benefits. We will leverage influencers and social media to spread our vision and focus on attracting crypto-savvy individuals who value decentralization and distrust centralized authorities.

5. As a non-profit entity, how are you going to maintain the project's operational cost?
The USSD project will be supported by our savings and donations. Once the contract is non-upgradeable, operational costs will be negligible, with the community and users covering necessary expenses.

I'm here to answer any further questions you might have!  Smiley

1. About extreme overcollateralization.

Collateral of USSD Stable coin contains 4 crypto assets in Ethereum Mainnet that will ensure maximum decentralization possible nowadays:



Such cryptoassets as WBTC and WETH will make collateralization ratio possible x2-x5 times. But we include a radical element in the collateral structure, namely the BGL (Bitgesell) coin, which is deflationary and has a small capitalization (at the time of writing). It was included in the collateral to overcome collateral fluctuations in the first period of USSD adoption and to increase collateral upside in the long run. Therefore 10x+ collateral ratio will be reached.


2. About complete autonomy.

  • 1. USSD cannot be frozen on anyone’s address, banned or blacklisted – by code.
  • 2. The collateral stays visible on the smart contract and could not be accessed by anyone, except the redeem/rebalance logic in the code.
  • 3. Code is 100% open-source.
  • 4. Collateral doesn’t include:
    - short-term US treasures
    - cash in US banks
    - any cryptoassets that are directly connected to the financial insitutions.
  • 5. USSD doesn’t have any intrinsic business tied with it, like borrowing/lending protocol, return on collateral investing. USSD is non-profit project.

USSD Stable coin aims to provide what the crypto community needs: freedom and safety.

Autonomous Secure Dollar (USSD) – is the project aimed to create a fully autonomous, decentralized and radically overcollateralized stablecoin (ERC20) pegged to USD.



The stablecoin architecture ensures the following features:

1. Extremely overcollateralized. USSD stablecoin is fully backed by decentralized crypto assets. Furthermore, the collateral to capitalization ratio of the USSD stable coin is aimed to be more then 10x.

2. Autonomous.
  • the USSD stablecoin user can’t be frozen, blacklisted or banned by anyone;
  • USSD collateral is not connected with financial institutions and physical world;
  • simple architecture, smart-contract based – no reliance on any operating business, thus independent from any revenue stream risk (such as fees, lending/borrowing interest, etc.).
