Argo

USDA: Argo's Stablecoin

USDA is a dollar-pegged stablecoin over-collateralized by yield-earning tokens deposited into Argo. USDA is valued at $1.00 when used for borrowing and repaying on Argo. USDA can be used like any other stablecoin.

When a user opens a vault and borrows, USDA gets minted and sent to the user's wallet. Argo then charges an interest rate on USDA debt, based on the type of yield-earning asset engine. When USDA debt is repaid, the initial loan amount of USDA is burned, and the accrued interest is paid to the protocol treasury.
