Stack’s $MORE
token is a non-algorithmic, collateral-backed stablecoin. This means that every $1 USD of $MORE
should have more than $1 USD of collateral backing.
Stack considers $MORE
to be worth $1 however at times it may not trade at this value. In these instances, Stack has several options at its disposal to regain the $1 USD peg.
$MORE
was developed using the OpenZeppelin ERC20 canonical implementation.

Peg Stability
$MORE
Peg Stability $MORE
is pegged to $1 USD and it's important that it trades consistently at a $1 value. The peg stability mechanics rely on two primary tools: Interest Rates and Arbitrage.
Interest Rates
Stack sets the interest rate for the protocol. As discussed on the next page, these rates are an important tool in managing the circulating supply of $MORE
.
To encourage economic activity, we prefer low rates for borrowing on the protocol.
Low rates encourage
$MORE
borrowing and$MORE
in circulationWith low rates there is less demand to stake, keeping
$MORE
in circulation
However, if $MORE
is being dumped and begins to depeg, we can go to high rates.
At higher rates, borrowers are encouraged to close out positions to avoid incremental fees/costs
High rates also pass-through to stakers, encouraging staking, removing
$MORE
from circulation
Arbitrage
Arbitrage is another way peg stability is incentivized through the activity of market participants.
If
$MORE
were to trade below $1 USD, it would be advantageous for debt holders to purchase$MORE
at a discount and use these "cheap dollars" to pay back outstanding debt. Buying discounted$MORE
will eventually raise the price back to $1.If
$MORE
were to trade above $1 USD, users holding Stack collateral could open a new position and sell the borrowed$MORE,
capturing that value between the issuance and sales price. Selling$MORE
from this behavior will lower the price back to $1.As the re.al ecosystem expands
$MORE
may trade at different prices in different markets. Users can buy and sell from these different markets to close the spread and move prices back to $1 USD everywhere.
Its quite common for bots to monitor pools and quickly capitalize on these opportunities, with the benefit that depegs are often quickly corrected.
$sMORE
$sMORE
is the staked version of $MORE
, shares in a vault of $MORE
that accrues additional fees from protocol operations.
$sMORE
is an ERC-4626, a standard used to optimize and unify the technical parameters of yield-bearing vaults that represent shares of a single underlying ERC-20 token. When users deposit $MORE
tokens into the $sMORE
vault (using the ERC-4626 standard), they receive $sMORE
tokens in return, representing their share of the vault. As the value of the vault goes up i.e. Stack platform fees accrue to stakers, the value of $sMORE
also goes up.
