- Collateral
- Overcollateralized loans on ICON against sICX (staked ICX), with cross-chain Hub collateral support for assets bridged in via Balanced's xCall infrastructure
- Peg Mechanism
- CDP-style mint: users borrow bnUSD against eligible collateral on the ICON Hub through the Balanced Loans contract, paying a 0.2% origination fee and a 2% annualised interest charge; loans must remain above the protocol's collateral ratio or are eligible for liquidation. The same bnUSD supply circulates wrapper-free across connected chains via xCall, so cross-chain balances net back to the canonical ICON issuance.
- Jurisdiction
- Not disclosed in the static profile.
