BUCK Stablecoin

BUCK is a USD-pegged stablecoin that users can mint by depositing collateral assets into Bucket. All BUCK transactions are publicly viewable on the Sui blockchain, and BUCK is backed by multiple types of over-collateralized digital assets, like BTC, ETH, and SUI.

$B

BKT is Bucket Protocol's secondary token. By staking BKT, users can earn a share of the fees generated within the Protocol and become liquidity providers by contributing to the BUCK: SUI pool.

$stB

Users can obtain stBKT tokens by staking BKT or injecting liquidity into the 'Tank.' Longer staking periods correlate with a higher weight inscribed in the stBKT, incentivizing longer-term commitments.

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 110%. Users can contribute to the Tank by depositing BUCK, which helps maintain the system's stability and solvency.

$B staking pool

The $B staking pool collects various revenue streams, such as borrowing fees, interest fees, redemption fees, PSM fees, and flash loan fees. Users who stake $B receive stB, which gives them a share of these revenues.
