Stability Pool in the RIME Protocol

The Stability Pool plays a critical role in maintaining the overall health and stability of the RIME Protocol. In this guide, you'll learn about the Stability Pool's function, its importance in the RIME ecosystem, and how you can participate.

What is the Stability Pool?

The Stability Pool is a decentralized pool of RUSD that acts as a buffer against fluctuations in the value of the collateral backing the RUSD loans. When a Trove is liquidated, the Stability Pool absorbs the liquidated debt, and in return, participants in the Stability Pool receive a share of the liquidated collateral.

By contributing RUSD to the Stability Pool, participants help maintain the stability of the RIME Protocol while earning rewards in the form of liquidated collateral and RMT tokens.

Why is the Stability Pool important?

The Stability Pool is essential to the RIME Protocol for several reasons:

  1. Debt Absorption: The Stability Pool absorbs the debt from liquidated Troves, ensuring that the total RUSD supply remains well-collateralized.
  2. Risk Mitigation: By absorbing liquidated debt, the Stability Pool helps protect the RIME ecosystem from the effects of sudden market fluctuations.
  3. Incentivized Participation: Participants in the Stability Pool are rewarded with liquidated collateral and RMT tokens, encouraging users to contribute and maintain the system's stability.

How to Participate in the Stability Pool

To participate in the Stability Pool, follow these steps:

  1. Connect your wallet to the RIME web app.
  2. Navigate to the "Stability Pool" section.
  3. Deposit the desired amount of RUSD into the Stability Pool.
  4. Monitor your rewards and claim them when you wish.

Remember that the rewards you earn from the Stability Pool are proportional to your share of the total RUSD in the pool. As you contribute more RUSD, your share of the rewards will increase accordingly.

By participating in the Stability Pool, you not only help maintain the stability of the RIME Protocol but also have the opportunity to earn valuable rewards. Make sure to monitor your rewards and adjust your RUSD contribution as needed to maximize your returns.
