How USDSO Works
USDSO follows an Frax-style architecture designed for stability and partner confidence. Reserves are handled by qualified entities, while onchain contracts define the rules that partners integrate with.
Trusted Structure
USDSO is governed entirely by smart contracts, with minting, redemption, and integration rules enforced on-chain.
Fully Backed
USDSO is designed so supply stays aligned with offchain reserves, making coverage and risk easy to assess.
Built to Integrate
USDSO serves as the native settlement currency across Somnia's DeFi ecosystem.
Real-time coverage
The circulating supply and collateral figures on this page pull directly from on-chain and reserve data,
Audited contracts
Independent security firms review USDSO's core contracts, and their reports are publicly available through the links below.
Transparent reporting
Reserve attestations and operational disclosures are published on a recurring schedule, with full history accessible so anyone can track how coverage has changed over time.
Why USDSO exists
DeFi on any chain needs a shared stable asset that participants can trust as a common base. USDSO fills that role on Somnia, giving partners a reliable unit of account and liquidity layer to build on across multiple products.
How USDSO supports the DEX
USDSO sits at the center of dreamDEX as the primary stable asset in key trading pairs. Because liquidity is concentrated around a single trusted quote currency, traders get tighter spreads and better execution, and protocols that route through dreamDEX benefit from the same depth.
OverviewWhat happens to the yield?
USDSO reserves can generate yield over time from the underlying collateral, and Somnia channels it back into the ecosystem through liquidity support, builder programs, and long-term resilience mechanisms.
DocumentationWhy Somnia is a good home for DeFi
Somnia's throughput and finality speed mean DeFi applications can operate with the responsiveness traders expect from centralized platforms. Stable primitives like USDSO are built into the network from day one rather than added after the fact, and the ecosystem is designed to stay composable as adoption grows.
