🔄Minting & Redeeming Synths
Minting Synthetic Assets
In order to mint 1 Synth Avax (xsAvax) token users must supply 1 AVAX, (1 - CR) of this will be converted to AVA/AVAX LP held as POL for redemption stability.
1️⃣ Provide Collateral – Users interact with the mint function which deposits AVAX into the backing contract. 2️⃣ Collect Synthetic Tokens – Users interact with the Collect function on the contract to receive xsAvax in equal ratio to their AVAX input minus the mint fee. 3️⃣ Use & Earn – Create CL LP with your xsAVAX in a tight range and deposit into the farms to earn double or triple digit yields from Ava rewards as well as trading trading fees on your AVAX.
Redeeming Synthetic Assets
When 1 xsAVAX is redeemed, the system returns CR worth of AVAX and (1 - CR) worth of AVA.
1️⃣ Redeem Synthetic Tokens – Users can redeem any amount of their xsAvax holding at any time through the dapp. Doing so burns the xsAvax input. 2️⃣ Collect Backing Tokens – Once the redemption transaction is processed users can collect the underlying collateral as native AVAX as well as a portion of AVA tokens up to the current CR minus the redemption fee. If CR is 100% then users will receive 1:1 xsAvax:Avax minus the redemption fee.
Flash Loan Protection
After both Minting or Redeeming, you will have to additionally collect your minted or redeemed tokens in a separate transaction. This 2 step process completely eliminates the possibility of flashloan attacks.
Fees
There is a 0.5% fee for minting and 0.5% fee for redeeming collected in AVAX this is transferred to AVA stakers and lockers as claimable rewards.
Both minting and/or Redeeming may be paused based on market conditions and for Risk Management.
