Bottle & Bucket
The Bucket Protocol has a pool known as the Bucket that holds collateral (Bottle) from users. A Bottle is where users manage their loans. Different collateral types are segregated into distinct Buckets to insulate against potential risks.
Tank
The Tank acts as a source of capital to liquidate the bottle when its Collateralization Ratio falls below MCR(Minimal Collateralization Ratio). Users can contribute to the Tank by depositing BUCK, which helps maintain the system's stability and solvency.
