satUSD
River's satUSD makes a deliberate choice: no centralized stablecoin collateral accepted, only BTC, ETH, BNB, and LSTs — a principled stance that earns an A+ in dependency risk but costs it a peg score in the sixties with over 200 depeg events including one that hit nearly 4,500 basis points. The Omni-CDP architecture lets users deposit collateral on one chain and mint satUSD on another via LayerZero, spreading across eleven chains including some classified as unproven — a deployment breadth that triggers decentralization penalties despite the protocol's genuinely decentralized governance as a Liquity V1 fork. The 88-rated redemption backstop offers permissionless atomic access to blue-chip collateral, but with minimal DEX liquidity across all chains, the secondary market is paper-thin. satUSD is the most ideologically pure CDP at scale, but purity and peg stability have proven to be competing objectives.
