Emission Schedule & Release Mechanism

The release of USST tokens follows a phased approach to prevent inflationary pressure and ensure gradual decentralization. The emission schedule is designed to:

  • Support initial liquidity bootstrapping through incentives for users who mint USST or provide liquidity.
  • Encourage long-term staking by rewarding participants who lock USST for governance and protocol security.
  • Fund treasury reserves for sustainable ecosystem expansion and strategic initiatives.

Treasury-Backed Yield & Staking Incentives

  • Users participating in USST minting and liquidity pools receive additional USST rewards, ensuring a balanced distribution of governance power.
  • Treasury reserves also back yield distribution, ensuring all issued stablecoins remain fully collateralized​.

Incentives for Collateral Providers & Liquidity Participants

STBL ensures that users contributing to the protocol’s liquidity and stability receive direct incentives:

  • Collateral Providers – Users minting USST receive rewards via:

    • Direct yield distribution through YLD tokens.
    • Additional USST governance rewards for long-term staking.
    • Lower minting fees for high-volume liquidity providers.
  • Liquidity Participants – Those contributing to USST trading pools or staking USST earn protocol incentives and fee-based rewards.
