# Sky Dollar (USDS)

**Peg:** US Dollar

**Backing:** Crypto-Collateralized

**Governance:** CeFi-Dependent

**Status:** active

## Overview

Sky Dollar still commands the single best {{term:redemption}}redemption{{/term}} infrastructure in stablecoins: a permissionless {{term:psm}}PSM{{/term}} with atomic, zero-fee settlement and nearly half of total supply available as immediate exit capacity — no other stablecoin at scale offers anything close. The B+ safety grade now reflects strength tempered by where the cracks actually are, with the reserve mix of 38% stablecoins via PSM, 28% Spark lending {{term:cdp}}CDP{{/term}} positions, and 23% Grove {{term:rwa}}RWA{{/term}} providing genuine diversification rather than the concentration risk that plagues most competitors. The peg itself is the easy part — USDS sits at the calm end of the stress scale and clears its worst sub-day wobbles within hours, with only a handful of brief deviations across the rolling window. The yield-to-risk story through the Sky Savings Rate still rewards holders without the exotic risk profiles that higher-yielding alternatives require. The structural dependency on USDC as mechanism-critical PSM collateral remains the one tension in a DAO-governed system that aspires to monetary sovereignty — roughly a third of Sky Dollar's backing ultimately traces back to Circle's banking relationships, with {{term:overcollateralization}}overcollateralized{{/term}} Maker vaults backing the rest.
