About apxUSD (APXUSD)

apxUSD is a dividend-backed synthetic dollar protocol that converts off-chain dividend cash flows from Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs) into on-chain yield.

• The protocol utilizes preferred equity issued by publicly-listed companies as collateral to back its digital dollar.
• Users can stake apxUSD into apyUSD vaults to access enhanced yields derived from diversified digital credit positions.
• Risk management includes daily Net Asset Value (NAV) reporting, automated rebalancing, and protocol-owned liquidity buffers.

What Is apxUSD

apxUSD is a synthetic dollar designed for stability and liquidity across decentralized finance (DeFi) and centralized finance (CeFi). It is backed by over 100% collateral in preferred shares of Digital Asset Treasuries, which are companies holding digital assets and issuing monthly dividend-paying preferred stock. apxUSD serves as a liquidity layer, while its yield-bearing counterpart, apyUSD, captures the underlying dividend streams. The ecosystem scales by acquiring more preferred equity from DATs, increasing the collateral base and yield potential as the protocol grows.

What Makes apxUSD Unique

• Dividend-backed collateral: Unlike traditional Stablecoins backed by fiat or crypto-assets, apxUSD is collateralized by preferred equity dividends from public companies.
• Strategic partnerships: The protocol is supported by DeFi Development Corp. (Nasdaq: DFDV), the first Solana-based Digital Asset Treasury.
• Multi-layered risk framework: Features daily monitoring, issuer concentration thresholds, and theta-minimized gamma hedging strategies using put options.

• Collateralization: apxUSD is designed for use as collateral in lending pools and as margin for various trading markets within the DeFi ecosystem, similar to the utility of assets like USD₮.

How Does apxUSD Work?

The protocol acquires preferred shares from DATs and converts the off-chain monthly cash dividends into on-chain yield for the apyUSD vault.

As an application utility token, its fees are described as protocol service fees rather than network gas.
