📚Glossary

USDC

USDC is a stablecoin backed by CIrcle!

APR

Annual Percentage Rate, is the annualized interest rate without taking the effect of compounding into account.

APY

Annual Percentage Yield, is the normalized representation of an interest rate, based on a compounding period over one year. Note that APYs provided are rather ballpark level indicators and not so much precise future results.

BCV

Bond Control Variable, is the scaling factor at which bond prices change. A higher BCV means a lower discount for minters and higher inflation by the protocol. A lower BCV means a higher discount for minters and lower inflation by the protocol.

DAO

Decentralized Autonomous Organization, is a governance mechanism for making decisions in a more trustless and collaborative way. Voting rights are often bound to a governance token. In Pegasus the governance token is MEMOries, and we expect the voting page to be up as soon as possible, stay tuned!.

DCV

Deflation Control Variable, is the scaling factor at which protocol defined buy pressure changes. A higher DCV means more buy pressure from the protocol, resulting in a higher deflation. A lower DCV means less buy pressure from the protocol, resulting in a lower deflation.

EVM

Ethereum Virtual Machine, is a state machine in which all Ethereum accounts and smart contracts live. At any given block in the chain, Ethereum has one and only one canonical state, and the EVM is what defines the rules for computing a new valid state from block to block. Avalanche is an EVM Compatible Netwrok!

Liquidity Bonds

Liquidity bonds are all the bonds that allows users to mint TIME using LP token. An Example is SUS -MIM LP bonds.

PCV

Protocol Controlled Value, is the amount of funds the treasury owns and controls. The more PCV the better for the protocol and its users.

POL

Protocol Owned Liquidity, is the amount of LP the treasury owns and controls. The more POL the better for the protocol and its users.

PoR

Proof of Reserve, is the mechanism of strengthening the reserve of Pegasus treasury via the sales of bonds (i.e Minting new SUS ). Minters provide liquidity to the treasury, thereby building its reserve. In return for their service, bonders get paid in SUS .

Reserve Bonds

Reserve bonds are all the bonds that allows users to MINT SUS using single assets. They are sometimes referred to as "naked" bonds. Examples are MIM bonds.

Reward Rate

Reward rate is the configured percentage of SUS distributed to all stakers on each rebase relative to the total supply. The reward rate is precisely set by the policy team.

Reward Yield

Reward yield refers to the actual amount of SUS received by each staker on each rebase. The reward yield is a rough target from a policy point of view. It can almost never be maintained precisely due to e.g. fluctuating amounts of SUS staked.

Backing per SUS

Backing per SUS , is the amount of funds the treasury guarantees to use for backing SUS .

LP

Liquidity Provider token, is the token received when providing liquidity on DEXs. For instance liquidity bonds will require require LP tokens of the SUS -MIM pair from Cronaswap.

TVL

Total Value Locked, is the dollar amount of all SUS staked in the protocol. This metric is often used as growth or health indicator in DeFi projects.

TaaS

Treasury as a Service, is the business model of decentralized custody of partnership funds. Pegasus is designed for TaaS by selling bonds and absorbing partners' liquidity into its treasury as a result.

TWAP

Time Weighted Average Price, is the average price of an asset over a specified time. TWAPs are used to represent the fair value of an asset as defined by the market.
