There's a stablecoin project building on MegaETH that has just as much of my attention now as Plasma. Cap. No cap, that's literally the name. Here's a quick intro. This post covers: - A summary of Type-1 and Type-2 stablecoins - Where does the yield come from? (a type-3 introduction) - Yeah, No Cap. - CAP SUQs

TLDR of Type-1 and Type-2 yield bearing stablecoins. The key differentiator between these types of stablecoins, is who makes the decision of where to get yield from. With Type-1 stablecoins, decisions are made solely by the team behind the protocol. Where to invest, the kinds of assets to invest in, all lie in the hands of the team.

With type-2, these decisions lies in the hands of a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) and by now we all know why this is annoying. Where does the yield come from? Typically low-risk bond, treasury bases strategies.

Cap is a Type-3 Stablecoin protocol that makes a promise of safety and minimum yield for users. Promises and assurances made by cap are backed by smart contracts logic built on Ethereum, leveraging its robust security and tools built by other DeFi giants like EigenLayer and Farcaster sweetheart @morpho
