RUSD Architecture

The RUSD (Real-World USD) architecture is designed to create a stable and efficient ecosystem for Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization, collateralization, and yield generation. Built on Novastro’s platform, RUSD leverages blockchain infrastructure, market-making strategies, and stability mechanisms to maintain a secure and scalable financial system.
The collateral system underpins the stability and value of RUSD by ensuring every issued token is backed by real-world assets.
RWAs, such as real estate, commodities, corporate bonds, and infrastructure projects, are tokenized through Novastro’s platform.
These tokenized assets become on-chain representations of their real-world counterparts, allowing for fractional ownership and seamless digital transactions.
The tokenized assets are pooled together as collateral to back RUSD issuance.
A diversified asset mix ensures risk mitigation, reducing exposure to volatility from any single asset class.
To ensure proper collateral backing, the system follows a well-defined collateralization formula:
CR=∑(Vi×qi)Total RUSD SupplyCR = \frac{\sum(Vᵢ × qᵢ)}{\text{Total RUSD Supply}}CR=Total RUSD Supply∑(Vi×qi)
Where:
Vᵢ = Value of collateral asset i
qᵢ = Quantity of collateral asset i
Total RUSD Supply = Total amount of RUSD in circulation
A higher CR ensures greater stability, while automated mechanisms maintain the ratio at an optimal level.
The RUSD ecosystem is built around three key pillars: minting, market-making, and stability enforcement.
New RUSD tokens are minted based on the real-time value of collateralized assets.
The minting process is controlled through smart contracts to ensure transparency and prevent over-issuance.
RUSD functions as a stable transaction currency within the Novastro ecosystem.
Users can trade, transfer, and use RUSD in DeFi applications without worrying about excessive volatility.
Ensures liquidity in both primary and secondary markets.
Automated market-making algorithms dynamically adjust supply and demand.
Liquidity providers (LPs) are incentivized to maintain a healthy RUSD market.
Decentralized price oracles feed real-time data about collateral assets.
Oracles source data from multiple providers to ensure accuracy and avoid manipulation.
Continuous valuation helps maintain an optimal collateralization ratio.
Maintaining price stability and ensuring RUSD remains fully backed are key priorities.
The Collateralization Ratio (CR) is constantly tracked to ensure RUSD remains sufficiently backed.
When CR drops below the threshold, corrective actions are triggered.
If CR falls, the system can:
Introduce additional collateral to balance the reserves.
Adjust RUSD supply by temporarily restricting minting or burning excess supply.
These mechanisms prevent undercollateralization risks and protect RUSD's stability.
On-chain oracles provide continuous updates on asset values.
This data enables timely rebalancing of the collateral pool.
RUSD holders can earn passive income through multiple yield-generating mechanisms.
RUSD generates yield from:
Staking RUSD: Users can lock RUSD to earn staking rewards.
Lending Tokenized Assets: Tokenized RWAs can be lent out to borrowers, generating interest.
Revenue Sharing from Infrastructure Projects: A portion of revenue from real-world projects backing RUSD is distributed to holders.
The yield (Y) for RUSD holders is calculated as:
Y=(Total Annual EarningsAsset Value)×100%Y = \left( \frac{\text{Total Annual Earnings}}{\text{Asset Value}} \right) × 100\%Y=(Asset ValueTotal Annual Earnings)×100%
Earnings are distributed proportionally based on individual holdings.
The more RUSD a user holds, the higher their passive income potential.
RUSD is fully integrated with various Novastro ecosystem components to enhance functionality and accessibility.
RUSD connects with decentralized and centralized trading platforms to enable seamless trading.
This ensures secondary market liquidity and adoption across the broader crypto economy.
RUSD interfaces with the Digital Twin Container (DTC) for real-world asset synchronization.
This ensures collateral values are updated in real time, maintaining an accurate representation of the underlying assets.
