The Problem

Bitcoin holders cannot easily access on-chain liquidity without selling their BTC, and existing BTC-backed lending products are either centralised (CeFi lenders) or fragmented across small chains.

The Solution

USDa lets BTC holders mint a USD-pegged stablecoin against BTC LST collateral at a fixed 8% rate, with a guaranteed 1:1 USDT redemption vault and omnichain deployment via LayerZero.

Why it Matters

First major Bitcoin-backed CDP stablecoin at scale (~$425M TVL); fixed-rate borrowing instead of variable; LayerZero-native omnichain deployment across 20+ chains; CeDeFi custody with named institutional partners. The team reports ~$3.1B cumulative facilitated volume with no material security incident since launch (per official Avalon comms, May 2026) — note this is cumulative throughput, distinct from the ~$425M current USDa TVL.
