Stability Pool
Depositors supply qUSD to backstop the system; when a vault is liquidated, the pool burns its debt and receives its collateral at a discount.

How it works
Deposit qUSD into the Stability Pool. When a vault falls below its health factor, the pool burns that vault's qUSD debt and takes its collateral at a discount to oracle price.
Yield
That discount is your yield for standing ready. Deposits and withdrawals are permissionless, and the pool is always on.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Est. yield | ~8.4% APR (from liquidation discount) |
| Settlement | USDC |
| Availability | 24/7, permissionless |
Share accounting
Deposits are share-based. As debt is offset, qUSD per share falls (the absorbed loss) while collateral gains accrue to depositors pro-rata. Claim collateral gains or withdraw your remaining qUSD at any time.
Need qUSD to deposit? Mint some against your own collateral first, then supply it to the pool to start earning the liquidation discount.
