Protocol Description

Smardex launched “USDN” (Ultimate Synthetic Delta Neutral), a fully decentralized synthetic dollar backed by Smardex perpetual contracts on Ethereum.

SDEX serves as its governance token, allowing holders to vote on protocol upgrades and treasury allocations.

Motivation

  1. texte en grasCapital Efficiency: The 75/25 weighted pool optimizes capital deployment for SDEX while maintaining exposure to ETH yield via Aave's Lido ETH wrapper.
  2. Yield Stacking: Combines Balancer swap fees, ETH staking rewards, and potential SDEX/BAL incentives.
  3. Governance Alignment: Deepens SDEX utility by creating a primary liquidity venue for its governance token.

Specifications

1. Governance

  • There is no governance for now.
  • For USDN, some contracts are renounced.
  • The remaining contracts are managed by a 3/5 multisig controlled internally by the team

2. Audits

  • Paladin Blockchain Security
  • Trails of Bits
  • Hacken Proof and Immunefi for bug bounties, up to $5,500,000

3. Centralization Vectors

  • There is no governance; the team manages all operations. Some contracts are renounced, while others are controlled by a 3/5 multisig

4. Market History

  • SDEX launched March 18, 2023, and can be traded on various DEX (Smardex, Uniswap, Raydium) and CEX (Gate, Bitget, MECX).

5. Value

  • Offering greater liquidity for the SDEX token
  • SDEX vote incentives (aka ‘bribes’) for veBAL holders
