sNUSD
Earning Yield
Neutrl distributes generated yield exclusively to sNUSD holders. Users stake NUSD tokens through the staking contract to receive sNUSD, which represents their proportional share of the yield-bearing vault. The sNUSD token automatically appreciates in value as yield accrues, enabling passive yield earning without requiring any manual actions from users.
Unstaking process
Upon unstaking, sNUSD tokens are burned and users receive their proportional share of NUSD based on the current exchange rate. The protocol enforces a 30-day cooldown period before withdrawals can be executed.
Yield Accrual Mechanism
Staking NUSD
- Users deposit NUSD into the staking contract
- The contract mints sNUSD based on the current sNUSD exchange rate
- Initial exchange rate: 1 sNUSD = 1 NUSD
- The exchange rate increases over time as yield accumulates
Yield Distribution
- Protocol generates yield through market-neutral strategies and revenue-generating activities
- Yield continuously flows into the staking contract, increasing total NUSD reserves
- Each sNUSD token appreciates proportionally as the vault grows
Passive Growth
- Yield accrual requires no user intervention
- Returns are automatically reflected in the increasing sNUSD redemption value
Calculation & Example
sNUSD:NUSD ratio = total sNUSD supply / (total NUSD staked + total protocol revenue deposited in NUSD terms)| Time period | sNUSD supply | Protocol revenue (NUSD) | sNUSD : NUSD ratio | sNUSD Received for 1 NUSD Staked | NUSD Received for 1 sNUSD Burned |
