PUSD MECHANICS

HOW THE DOLLAR
WORKS.

01

Deposit

A mint request transfers the required USDC and PMP collateral to their distinct program-controlled vaults in one atomic transaction.

02

Validate

The program validates token accounts, collateral policy, oracle inputs, limits, and the user’s slippage protection before value can move.

03

Mint PUSD

Only after the checks succeed can the program’s PDA mint PUSD to the user. PMP is never minted for protocol solvency.

04

Redeem

Burning PUSD returns available reserve collateral under the then-current policy. The program cannot promise an output it cannot deliver.
