# Liquity BOLD (BOLD)

**Peg:** US Dollar

**Backing:** Crypto-Collateralized

**Governance:** Decentralized (DeFi)

**Status:** active

## Overview

BOLD is Liquity V2's decentralized dollar stablecoin, minted from immutable {{term:overcollateralization}}overcollateralized{{/term}} {{term:cdp}}CDP{{/term}} vaults against WETH, wstETH, and rETH only — no governance keys, no admin functions, no RWA exposure. Liquity V2's BOLD is the highest-rated DeFi stablecoin on the dashboard, earning an A+ at 94 — with a safety grade history that confirms this is structural, not a fluke. Backed by wstETH, WETH, and rETH in immutable contracts with no governance keys, no admin functions, and no RWA exposure, BOLD achieves what most decentralized stablecoins only aspire to: genuine peg stability alongside genuine decentralization, with just 6 depeg events recorded and none exceeding 134 basis points. The 90-rated {{term:redemption}}redemption{{/term}} backstop with permissionless atomic collateral redemption at 50 bps provides the hardest peg floor in DeFi, while user-set interest rates and the Stability Pool yield mechanism (currently ~3.6% via Yearn's yBOLD) create self-correcting incentives that have kept BOLD remarkably close to par. Supply is growing modestly across seven chains, but the total remains small relative to the design's ambition — proof that the market still prices convenience and composability above architectural purity.

## Collateral

WETH, wstETH, and rETH only; immutable contracts with no governance over collateral selection

## Peg Mechanism

Overcollateralized CDPs with direct on-chain redemption for $1 of collateral; user-set interest rates adapt to peg conditions, with 75% of interest revenue flowing to Stability Pools
