miMatic Update
The Protocol minted one million miMatic and sold it on the open market to alleviate the buy pressure for miMatic and stabilize the peg. This miMatic is backed by 1,225,460 USDC, as it was sold at a premium until the peg returned to normal levels.
Moving forward, the Protocol will add USDC as collateral for miMatic, in addition to Matic. Users will be able to swap USDC for miMatic through the app site. miMatic vaults will still accept Matic as collateral, which allows users to enjoy the value of their Matic without having to sell it.
Upcoming Activities
- Qi staking — earning 30% of repayment fee revenue
- USDC to be added as additional collateral option for miMatic
- PolyVerse Podcast on QiDao to be released
