What is Uncap USD (USDU)?

Source description

“USDU is a Bitcoin-backed CDP (Collateralized Debt Position) stablecoin built on Starknet, designed to unlock liquidity for Bitcoin holders in DeFi. The protocol allows users to deposit Bitcoin collateral and mint USDU stablecoins at user-set interest rates, maintaining a 1:1 peg with the US dollar through a redemption mechanism. USDU is part of Uncap, a dual-protocol system that serves as the liquidity engine for Bitcoin finance (BTCFi). The stablecoin features a permissionless liquidation system managed through a stability pool, where 75% of borrowing interest is distributed to stability pool participants and 25% is allocated as Protocol Incentivized Liquidity (PIL) to USDU-denominated trading pools on Ekubo DEX. The protocol is based on Liquity v2 architecture, adapted for Bitcoin collateral on Starknet. USDU aims to serve as a foundational asset for the BTCFi ecosystem, providing censorship-resistant, trust-minimized stablecoin infrastructure that enables sustainable yield opportunities for Bitcoin holders without requiring them to sell their BTC holdings.”

YearBull Rank context

YearBull Rank data is not available at the moment for uncap-usd.

Rank timeline (last 365 days)
Rank history is still being collected.The rank timeline will appear after two valid daily YearBull Rank snapshots are available.

Rank change (reference points).

Reading rule: lower numbers mean higher placement.

  • 7d window: current rank not available.
  • 30d window: current rank not available.

Orderflow context: stable placement often correlates with stable participation. If the line drifts, liquidity may be gradually shifting.

Cycle framing: phase changes usually leave a footprint in consistency. If 7d and 30d disagree, treat it as a transition window.

Risk framing: minor drift can still matter at scale. If it moves only on certain days, it can be update cadence.

Market structure: venue mix can alter rank without changing the narrative. If rank improves slowly, it often reflects broader access or steadier participation.

YearBull Rank is a relative placement score used on YearBull to compare a coin against peers within the same dataset. It is a context signal for relative placement, not an outcome forecast.
